About this role
Job title: Senior Vision Systems Engineer
About the Role Hands-on technical leader responsible for designing, optimizing, and productizing high-performance computer vision and AI pipelines for consumer devices. This role ensures real-time performance, power efficiency, and production robustness across embedded platforms.
What You'll Do
- Design and implement advanced computer vision and image processing pipelines optimized for real-time consumer devices.
- Collaborate with ISP, sensor, and tuning teams to optimize image quality for downstream AI and UX performance.
- Develop and deploy ML models for visual recognition, enhancement, tracking, or scene understanding.
- Optimize ML models for edge deployment (quantization, pruning, distillation, hardware-aware tuning).
- Implement performance-critical algorithms in modern C++ for embedded platforms.
- Optimize for latency, power consumption, memory footprint, and thermal constraints.
- Integrate inference engines on target SoCs.
- Work closely with Android/Linux platform teams to integrate camera and AI pipelines.
- Define and track KPIs: FPS, power usage, memory, startup time, and accuracy.
- Profile and optimize performance across CPU/GPU/NPU/DSP.
- Drive debugging of complex system-level issues in production builds.
- Ensure robust unit testing and contribute to automated validation pipelines.
- Mentor engineers and review architecture/design proposals.
- Support product bring-up and mass production readiness.
What We're Looking For
- Must have Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
- 7-10+ years of experience in computer vision/image processing.
- Proven experience shipping at least one consumer product with embedded vision/AI.
- Strong C++ expertise, including performance optimization.
- Strong experience with OpenCV and ML frameworks.
- Experience deploying ML models on embedded/edge devices.
- Experience with model optimization.
- Strong understanding of 2D/3D geometry and linear algebra.
- Experience working on embedded Linux or Android systems.
- Strong debugging and performance profiling skills.
- Experience optimizing for power and thermal constraints.
Nice to Have
- Experience with mobile SoCs.
- Experience with CUDA, OpenCL, Vulkan, OpenGL ES, SIMD.
- Experience with camera calibration and ISP interaction.
- Experience building for Android Camera HAL or Yocto-based systems.
- Experience with AR, computational photography, or video processing.
- Experience with multi-camera systems.
- Exposure to production validation and manufacturing constraints.
