Imaging Automation Engineer II (Hybrid/Remote Mon allowed)

Axon; Tampere; Hybrid; EUR 60,000 - 90,000; Full time

Job summary

Axon in Tampere is seeking an experienced imaging engineer to automate and scale image-quality tuning across camera products. You will work hands-on with real camera systems, lab measurements, and tuning assets to accelerate product readiness.

You’ll collaborate with software, hardware, firmware, and QA teams, translate subjective expectations into objective metrics, and build tools using Python and lab automation to reduce manual iterations.

Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with image quality in real camera products, ideally including ISP tuning, 3A tuning, image quality validation, camera module characterization, or product tuning.
• Experience with image-quality lab workflows, test charts, lighting setups, scene selection, regression testing, and the practical limitations of image-quality measurements.
• Practical software and tooling skills, especially Python for analysis, automation, scripting, data processing, or lab tooling.
• Working understanding of the camera pipeline from sensor through ISP, 3A, image processing, compression, and final output.
• A hands-on debugging mindset: comfortable moving between lab images, logs, tuning files, device behavior, and software tools.
• Clear communication skills and the ability to work effectively with both imaging domain experts and software engineers.

Responsibilities

• Drive automation of the image-quality tuning workflow: capture, measurement, analysis, tuning iteration, regression testing, and reporting.
• Work with product image-quality targets across real-world and lab scenes, lighting conditions, motion, dynamic range, color, noise, sharpness, exposure, and white balance.
• Partner with software, hardware, firmware, algorithm, and test engineers to connect lab results and product feedback to tuning and validation workflows.
• Improve how the team captures, stores, compares, and reviews image-quality evidence across products and camera modules.
• Help translate subjective image-quality expectations into objective metrics, lab measurements, acceptance criteria, and repeatable regression gates.
• Build tools that use automation, optimization, and AI-assisted analysis to suggest tuning directions, detect regressions, triage failures, and reduce manual iteration.
