Responsibilities: Perform optical, sensor, and ISP tuning and testing. Execute camera system testing to validate comprehensive module quality using industry standard metrics. Develop test plans, execute those plans, and create documented reports to share test results to stakeholders. Use agile tools to track work. Test camera system in lab environments using standard test procedures on camera systems. Perform qualitative system analysis within various environments. Draw key inferences. Evaluate individual subcomponents of camera systems. Lens qualification studies to determine quality and performance of lens to meet specifications or equipment requirements. Measure the lens intrinsic properties. Determine sensor performance. Create software tools to measure and compare key attributes from camera data. Create automation tools to assist continued analysis. Tune the sensor settings to meet system or perception requirements. Measure geometric position of camera systems relative to one another and review results. Integrate other perception systems to aid camera perception. Perform analysis for camera consistency. 10% domestic travel. may work remotely; periodic time in office required; must live within commuting distance of office.
