Job Description
Responsibilities
Scope
As a Staff Embedded Software Engineer, Imaging, you will lead the architecture, development, integration, and validation of the imaging subsystem software for SoCs. You will be responsible for evaluating, porting, and optimizing firmware and device drivers for image processing, video, and camera interfaces within the SDK across silicon and emulation platforms.
You will also evaluate and integrate customer-facing tools for image sensor bring-up, calibration, and characterization, enabling customers to successfully deploy camera-based solutions on devices.
Working within the global MCU software organization, you will collaborate closely with the SoC architecture, silicon design, and verification engineering teams throughout the product lifecycle—from pre-silicon FPGA validation through post-silicon bring-up, optimization, and customer enablement.
The ideal candidate is a seasoned hands-on technical contributor who learns quickly, thrives in a lab environment, enjoys solving challenging hardware/software integration problems, and continuously seeks to improve both products and engineering processes.
Responsibilities
Lead the design, implementation, and maintenance of the embedded imaging subsystem software for ARM Cortex-M–based platforms.
Evaluate, port, optimize, or develop firmware and device drivers for image processing, video, and camera interface hardware.
Design and implement firmware interfaces for image acquisition, processing, and streaming on resource-constrained embedded systems.
Integrate camera sensors using MIPI CSI-2 interfaces and support end-to-end camera bring-up, validation, and performance optimization.
Enable image sensor integration by evaluating and supporting calibration, characterization, and image quality tuning tools.
Lead imaging subsystem software activities during pre-silicon FPGA verification and post-silicon bring-up, validation, debugging, and performance tuning.
Optimize imaging and video processing pipelines for real-time performance, memory utilization, and power efficiency.
Support design verification, field applications engineers, and strategic customers during product development and deployment.
Provide technical subject-matter expertise on imaging subsystem software architecture and implementation.
Qualifications
M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field with 6+ years of embedded software experience, or B.S. with 8+ years of experience.
At least 3 years of experience developing embedded imaging, camera, video, or related multimedia software.
Strong experience developing low-level firmware, HAL, and device drivers for ARM-based embedded systems.
Strong understanding of camera imaging pipelines, including MIPI CSI-2 and I3C/I2C control interfaces to embedded ISPs, as well as raw Bayer and common pixel formats (e.g., YUV420 and RGB). This must include an understanding of 3A processing and frame-timing control for camera sensors.
Experience with embedded video pipelines including video streaming and hardware-accelerated image/video codecs such as JPEG, H.264, and H.265.
Experience developing software using FreeRTOS, Zephyr RTOS, or similar real-time operating systems.
Familiarity with image sensor calibration, characterization, and image quality tuning workflows.
Expert proficiency in C with strong embedded software architecture and design skills.
Hands-on experience debugging embedded systems using JTAG/SWD debuggers, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and related laboratory equipment.
Experience with embedded development environments such as Keil MDK, IAR Embedded Workbench, Eclipse-based IDEs, SEGGER Ozone, or similar tools.
Proficiency with Git, Jira, and modern software development practices.
