## About the Role

* Masters degree or foreign equivalent in Electrical Engineering, Imaging optics, Camera testing, Image processing or related field.

## Description

* Developing image/data processing algorithms and automation software using MATLAB or Python for camera and depth module calibration and mass production test systems.
 * Designing and analyzing protection circuits and electrical/optical metrology systems to meet functional safety requirements and calibration design specifications.
 * Implementing end-to-end automated test equipment (ATE) for camera and depth modules, including software that controls test hardware, processes images, and calibrates imaging performance at global factory scale.
 * Debugging and perform hardware failure analysis using lab instruments - including high-speed oscilloscopes, SMUs, DMMs, power meters, and spectrum analyzers - to resolve complex technical issues during hardware development.
 * Reviewing circuit schematic capture, PCB layouts, and mechanical designs of test fixtures to validate hardware against engineering requirements.
 * Defining and documenting functional requirements, test specifications, calibration flows, hardware configurations, and software pipeline documentation for imaging systems.
 * Visualizing and analyzing large-volume production data to identify performance trends, support engineering decisions, and present findings to senior engineers.
 * Leading external vendors and cross-functional internal teams in integrating multi-functional test heads into ATE systems, including equipment setup, debugging, and performance optimization.
 * Quantifying imaging system performance by designing and deploying metrics and calibration methods for camera and depth modules across worldwide manufacturing operations
