Instagram/Edits is building products that provide powerful and feature-rich video creation. Using AI to recognize objects, we can make it easy to add/replace objects/people, stylize themes/colors, and build innovative effects to empower high value creators. Ideas are limited by your imagination! There are multiple needs for Graphics specialists to support this mission. Most projects involve creating Graphics Infrastructure that can produce filters, effects and animations using accurate color spaces and HDR. You'll also work with Computer Vision / Machine Learning engineers to integrate models to do face tracking, skin segmentation, object recognition, etc.

Responsibilities

• Develop innovative graphics frameworks, algorithms, and tools to maximize graphics quality and performance
• Partner closely with various infrastructure and product teams across Meta, on camera, graphics, upcoming hardware, media enhancements, and more to create real-time rendering architecture
• Enable high fidelity experiences on mobile ecosystem, making efficient use of system resources
• Building rendering subsystems for mobile platforms
• Document and support graphics features
• Produce high-quality, performant, and maintainable code
• Collaborate with Artificial Intelligence partners to create segmentation / face tracking models
