This position is in-person in Goleta, CA. Toyon's Algorithms & AI Solutions team is seeking a highly motivated, inquisitive engineer to help design sensors and sensor-integration components, including cameras and precision timing systems, on novel embedded hardware and related software-based interfaces. You will leverage your experience in software engineering for numerous specific tasks at a systems level. As one example, you could be involved with glass-to-glass camera system implementation. This may involve binging-up MIPI CSI-2 drivers on Linux, implementing data encapsulation and transport (e.g., GigE Vision or custom protocols), and developing PC-based tools all the way from Python scripts to compiled, GUI-driven applications. The right candidate combines strong systems thinking with hands-on problem solving, learns new technologies quickly, and communicates clearly. You should be comfortable completing tasks independently, collaborating within a multidisciplinary team, and turning ambiguous requirements into something that works. Requirements A B.S. or M.S. degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline, is required. At least five years of experience (with B.S) or three years of experience (with M.S.) is desired. Theoretical and hands-on experience should include as many of the following as possible: - Embedded Linux (Yocto / Petalinux) including bring-up and driver development - Windows UI (WinUI) programming - C++ / C# - Python - Embedded processors including ARM and microcontrollers - FPGAs / SoCs - , Ability to interpret ## Related Videos - [Strange New Worlds: shaping the future of the digital age](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/677-strange-new-worlds-shaping-the-future-of-the-digital-age) - [JavaScript?
