As a Hardware Electrical Engineer at Meta, you will design, develop, and integrate innovative electrical systems for a wide range of applications, from next-generation consumer hardware to large-scale infrastructure. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams—including mechanical, optical, firmware, software, and manufacturing experts—to deliver impactful solutions. Your work may span the full product or system lifecycle, from early prototyping and feasibility studies to large-scale deployment and operational excellence. You will be part of a dynamic environment that values technical excellence, rapid iteration, and creative problem-solving.
Responsibilities
Own electrical development of complex subsystems or moderately complex systems, under guidance from technical leads or managers Lead schematic design, board layout, and cross-functional design reviews Propose innovative solutions to enhance system or product performance, reliability, and features Manage hardware bring-up, debugging, and support for manufacturing, assembly, or deployment Evaluate vendor reference designs and adapt them to Meta’s requirements Provide technical guidance and support to other engineers; contribute to team knowledge sharing Work autonomously and take initiative to manage individual and team priorities Collaborate in a distributed team environment and across engineering disciplines Contribute to operational excellence, compliance, or specialized requirements as relevant to the team’s mission
