As a Senior Imaging Systems Engineer, you will be a key technical leader responsible for the end-to-end design, development, and validation of our security camera and lighting systems. Your expertise will be crucial in defining specifications, meticulously evaluating imager and lens performance, and ensuring our final products deliver unparalleled image quality. You'll drive innovation, troubleshoot complex challenges, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in imaging.
Job Responsibility:
System Architecture & Design Leadership: Lead the architectural definition and design of complex camera modules and imaging systems, balancing optical, electrical, mechanical, lighting, and software considerations. Drive critical design decisions and contribute to the product roadmap
Advanced Imager & Lens Expertise: Spearhead the research, evaluation, and selection of cutting-edge image sensors based on rigorous performance criteria, including high dynamic range, low-light sensitivity, noise performance, and power efficiency. Define and critically evaluate optical lens systems for optimal performance, ensuring excellence in MTF, distortion, chromatic aberration, and stray light control. Design lighting to optimize image quality and power. Act as a primary technical liaison with imager, DSP, camera lens and optical component vendors, influencing future development
Rigorous Prototyping & Characterization: Develop and execute advanced test plans for camera prototypes, performing deep-dive characterization of imager and lens performance. Utilize and develop measurement techniques for noise analysis, linearity, spectral response, and other key parameters
Image Quality Mastery & Tuning: Design, implement, and lead comprehensive objective and subjective image quality (IQ) testing, covering parameters like color accuracy, white balance, exposure, sharpness, and noise. Employ and potentially develop advanced image quality analysis tools (e.g., Imatest). Work with ODM, Image and ISP SoC vendors to expertly calibrate and fine-tune Image Signal Processor (ISP) parameters to achieve industry-leading image quality across diverse challenging environments and use cases. Proactively identify, diagnose, and resolve complex image quality artifacts and propose innovative solutions
Validation & Production Readiness: Own the development and execution of robust validation plans for production-ready camera systems, ensuring compliance with all functional, performance, reliability, and regulatory requirements
Travel: Willing to travel to Asian manufacturing partners 1-3 times per year
Requirements:
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Optical Engineering, Physics, Imaging Science, Computer Science or a closely related field
5+ years of progressive experience in camera system design, development, and validation, with a proven track record of bringing imaging products to market
Deep expertise in: CMOS Image sensor technologies and their low-level characteristics
Optical system design, analysis, and characterization (e.g., MTF, distortion, CA, stray light, lens manufacturing processes)
Advanced Image Quality (IQ) metrics, testing methodologies, and industry-standard tools like IMATEST
Leading Image Signal Processor (ISP) tuning and optimization across various platforms
Camera module integration, calibration, and complex debugging
