Our Cameras Architecture Team is looking for an Imaging Simulation Engineer, who has extended experience in leading imaging technology, algorithm development and evaluation, to help develop, validate, and execute end-to-end simulation for camera systems consisting of image sensor, optics, control algorithms, and application software for the study and validation of new camera technologies and drive future product camera architectures that meet our product vision. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with lab equipment and familiar with camera test methodologies. • Typical Day in the Role: Collaborate with camera architects and XFN teams such as systems, optics, algorithm development and IQ team, to execute, validate and improve camera simulation for purposes like architecture validation and component down selection. Building a software simulator to simulate the hardware before it’s available, applicable to all products with cameras. • Purpose of the Team: A small team working on developing end-to-end high fidelity, high accuracy, and photo reality camera simulator. This position will be the key person working with XFN teams to fulfill their simulation needs. • Required Years of Experience: 10+ Years • Candidate Disqualifiers: Candidates that jump around a lot are not ideal, need to focus on longer term. • Interview Process: 2-3 Rounds (Behavioral + Technical/Programming)

Job Responsibilities:

  • Develop, validate, and execute state-of-the-art imaging software simulation tools to enable novel camera HW explorations, machine learning dataset generation, and product architecture tasks for consumer products.
  • Investigate latest imaging simulation methods (e.g. ISET, ZEMAX, non-sequential ray tracing) to enable realistic simulation of real camera behavior for architecture, algorithms, and image quality development for consumer mobile products.
  • Experiment and data collection to validate simulator accuracy and to improve simulator modeling capability and efficiency.
  • Build and bring up lab setups for image data acquisition of camera prototypes to support camera design studies. Operate, calibrate, and perform routine maintenance of lab equipment.
  • Develop and document camera test methodologies to support 2D/3D camera system performance analysis.
  • Develop and debug test scripts for image data collection automation.
  • Processing, analysis and organizing measurement data; presentation of initial analysis.
  • Drive supplier interaction and management to deliver camera prototypes in support of concept demonstrations.

Skills:

  • Understanding of image formation, capturing, and processing pipeline and techniques
  • C++/Python/MATLAB programming, shell scripting skills
  • Understanding subjective and objective image quality evaluation metric and testing procedure.
  • Hands on experience in the development of lab setups for camera system performance study
  • Experience in camera calibration and modeling of imaging systems
  • Experience working with Big Tech Companies

Education/Experience:

  • Bachelors Required; Masters/PhD Preferred
  • Minimum Qualifications: Advanced degree (M.S.) or equivalent acquired experience in a discipline such as Imaging Science, Image Processing, Computer Vision, or related fields
  • Knowledge of image formation process (spectrum, optics/aberrations, PSF, sensor noise, Fourier theory, sampling/aliasing) needed to successfully model and simulate complex imaging phenomena.
  • Experience and knowledge in developing and tuning Image Signal Processing (ISP) algorithms and pipeline.
  • Experience coding in languages such as MATLAB, Python, C/C++, preferably CUDA, design code for efficiency, and target different platforms such as GPU, Cloud, and other
  • Experiences in image quality testing of camera systems and familiar with image quality metrics and analysis.
  • Hands on experience in the development of lab setups for camera system performance study
  • Experiences in camera calibration and modeling of imaging systems
  • Familiar with image sensor, imaging optics, and image processing algorithms
  • Ability to work with minimal direction and managing a project independently from start to finish.
