Facebook Reality Labs TED Audio has centralized audio functions such as transducers, acoustics, devices, and machine learning-based audio algorithms. The team is focused on algorithm development and commercialization of real-world products, with responsibilities to end-to-end audio experience. The current team consists of mostly Ph.D. engineers and scientists working on ML/ DSP based algorithms for AR/VR products. As an intern in our team, you will have an opportunity to make core algorithmic advances and apply their ideas at an unprecedented scale.
Our internships are twelve (12) to sixteen (16) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.
