Job Description
Job Requirements
As a Camera SubModule Engineer, you will be responsible for developing and optimizing camera software modules, including ISP pipeline components, driver interfaces (HAL/KMD), tuning tools, and memory/buffer management for embedded systems or SoC platform
Embedded camera systems, sensor integration
MIPI-CSI-2, I2C/SPI, V4L2, sensor driver design (Sony, Aptina, OmniVision), FPDLINK, CVBS, analog cameras, imaging pipeline (3A, HDR, color correction)
Key Responsibilities
- Basic understanding of ISP pipeline modules
- Develop and maintain HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) and KMD (Kernel Mode Driver) interfaces interacting between host and camera submodules.
- Understand tuning parameters, and system teams to evolve tuning parameters and optimization strategies for image quality and performance.
- Manage memory and buffer lifecycles, implementing efficient buffer queue mechanisms under Linux kernel constraints.
- Understand image quality (IQ) tuning tools, scripts (Python/C++/MATLAB), and automation frameworks.
- Thorough knowledge of IFE( Image Front end) and IQ ( Image Quality).
- C++ design patterns is must and good at Linux Kernel Programming.
- Benchmark and validate image output quality using objective metrics (e.g. MTF, noise, low-light performance) via IQ test charts and automation script.
- Participate in debugging, profiling, and performance optimizations, ensuring low power, latency, and resource usage.
- Author and maintain technical documentation: API specs, tuning guides, interface descriptions, and test plan.
Work Experience
Minimum Requirements
- Bachelors degree or higher in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Imaging Science, or related field
- 2+ years experience in C/C++ software development; exposure to embedded systems or Linux driver development
