Job description

Seeking a talented Senior Design Engineer to join our global team and will be responsible for overseeing the design, implementation, and validation of in-vehicle camera visualization features (rear view, 360 surround/bird's-eye, trailer assist, recording/streaming) across embedded SoC and ECU platforms throughout the development lifecycle, from planning and design to implementation and testing. Ensure timely delivery and high-quality output.

Role and Responsibilities

• Feature design & requirements: Translate UX/PM requirements into technical specs and acceptance criteria.
• Image pipeline development: Implement and tune ISP stages (denoise, HDR merge, color, distortion correction).
• Integration: Integrate camera drivers (GMSL/FPD/CSI), SerDes, and SoC video pipelines; manage calibration flows.
• Validation & HIL: Create HIL/image injection tests, automated regression, and field test plans to validate latency, stitching, and artifact rates.
• Safety & compliance: Contribute to ISO 26262 work products, ASPICE artifacts, and FMVSS111 considerations.
• Crossteam coordination: Work with UX, safety, firmware, and manufacturing for production readiness.

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• A minimum of 8 years of overall experience including a minimum of 6 years in production software development and delivering software for camera/ADAS or embedded video systems.

Preferred Qualifications

• Embedded software: C/C++, Python, Linux BSP, Yocto, driver debugging.
• Image Processing: OpenCV, ISP tuning, HDR fusion, denoise, demosaic, geometric undistortion, seamaware stitching.
• Interfaces: MIPI/CSI, GMSL, FPD, SerDes, IC.
• Platforms: Linux BSP, Yocto, embedded SoC video pipelines, hardware accelerators, DMA.
• Validation: HIL, image injection/video replay, objective IQ metrics (PSNR/SSIM variants), subjective panel correlation.
• Tools: Video replay systems, PXI, trace/profiling tools, calibration rigs.
• Standards: ISO 26262, ASPICE, FMVSS111, ISO/SAE 21434 basics.
• Automotive Infotainment/Cluster/Display SW Architecture.
• Agile methodology, ALM (Jira).
• Software development best practice and quality: ASPICE, Unit testing, SW Quality, SW life cycle.
