This role is well suited to someone who is comfortable working with both physical hardware and Linux-based devices. The successful candidate will be able to troubleshoot beyond basic resets or reimaging-for example, determining whether a camera issue is likely caused by embedded storage, power delivery, networking, software configuration, optics, camera settings, cabling, or another hardware-related issue. This is not a software-development or electrical-design role. It is a practical technical role focused on device imaging and recovery, camera diagnostics, production testing, network configuration, RMA support, and occasional field troubleshooting. The right person will be methodical, hands-on, organized, and comfortable taking ownership of technical issues through resolution or escalation. Responsibilities Embedded Linux Imaging and Device Recovery * Prepare, flash, clone, configure, and validate embedded Linux images for camera systems. * Recover cameras experiencing software, boot, configuration, or storage-related issues. * Configure device networking, services, users, permissions, logs, and startup behavior. * Work with microSD cards, eMMC, SSDs, NVMe storage, and related embedded storage devices. * Use Linux command-line tools, SSH, system logs, service checks, disk checks, and network diagnostics to troubleshoot devices. * Maintain organized image files, recovery media, device configuration records, and internal setup procedures. Camera Diagnostics, Repair, and RMA Support * Receive, inspect, test, and evaluate returned LPR cameras and related equipment. * Diagnose whether reported issues are likely related to hardware, embedded software, storage, power, networking, camera settings, optics, environmental exposure, or physical damage. * Perform visual inspections, functional testing, configuration changes, image recovery, storage replacement, cable and connector checks, firmware updates, part swaps, and retesting. * Identify when equipment can be repaired internally versus when it should be escalated for replacement, factory repair, or engineering review. * Maintain clear RMA records, including reported symptoms, tests performed, findings, corrective actions, parts used, and final disposition. * Identify recurring failure patterns and communicate findings to management and technical teams. Production Testing and Quality Support * Perform final testing of production camera systems before shipment. * Verify camera operation, image quality, video streams, storage health, embedded software, network connectivity, and general system readiness. * Follow and improve production test procedures, checklists, and troubleshooting workflows. * Document failed tests, rework needs, and recurring quality concerns. * Assist with preparing tested equipment for shipment as needed. Networking, Camera Configuration, and Field Support * Configure IP cameras, PoE devices, switches, routers, and related network equipment. * Set IP addresses, subnets, camera web interfaces, RTSP/video streams, and remote-access settings. * Troubleshoot common connectivity issues, including IP conflicts, PoE failures, cabling faults, device communication failures, and configuration errors. * Travel occasionally to customer or partner sites to assist with installation, camera aiming, testing, image-quality review, and troubleshooting. * Document field findings and communicate recommended follow-up actions clearly. ## Related Videos - [Computer Vision from the Edge to the Cloud done easy](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/263-computer-vision-from-the-edge-to-the-cloud-done-easy) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Edge Orchestration for the Physical World: Connecting Cameras, Sensors, and Devices with MQTT](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100081-edge-orchestration-for-the-physical-world-connecting-cameras-sensors-and-devices-with-mqtt) - [Smart, Connected, Unexpected: The Wild Side of IoT and AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1113-smart-connected-unexpected-the-wild-side-of-iot-and-ai) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) - [Discover the open source trio you didn’t expect: .NET and PostgreSQL on Linux](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2042-discover-the-open-source-trio-you-didn-t-expect-net-and-postgresql-on-linux) ## Related Articles - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Should senior developers refuse interview coding challenges?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/29-should-senior-developers-refuse-interview-coding-challenges) - [Dev Digest 138 - Are you secure about this?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/486-dev-digest-138-are-you-secure-about-this) - [Dev Digest 134 - Where pixels sing?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/477-dev-digest-134-where-pixels-sing) - [System change: restart as developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/39-system-change-restart-as-developer)
