Camera Control-Systems Engineer

The Camera Systems Engineering Group develops systems calibration and correction procedures to maintain high image quality over a wide range of use cases and component variation. Past projects have addressed autofocus image stabilization position sensing stereo imaging special-case optimizations (low-light high disturbance etc) support of factory operations. The team is seeking an exceptional control systems engineer with broad skills to design and develop the next generation of camera technology.

Camera control-systems engineering involves systems-level analysis and modeling of imaging and sensing systems modeling dynamic systems developing robust control strategies design and construction of prototypes to guide development definition of test procedures and documentation of requirements and design considerations.
