We're looking for a Camera ISP/Driver Engineer to help us tune and test automotive image sensors for ADAS. As part of the Phantom Camera team, you'll characterize ADAS optics and imaging, define the requirements, and implement them through CMOS control and ISP tuning. Internally, you'll work alongside our DL, Vision Algorithm, Functional Safety, and Systems teams. Externally, you'll engage directly with global OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers.\nOur camera team is expanding, and much of what we do is still being built. You'll help shape the pipelines, evaluation methods, and tuning practices that will become the team's standards. You'll gain hands-on experience across the full breadth of automotive imaging (optics, image sensors, ISP, drivers, and systems), working shoulder-to-shoulder with senior engineers. You'll also see mass-production processes at global OEMs firsthand. If you learn fast, don't mind moving between the lab and the vehicle, and can stay with hard problems until you crack them, we want to hear from you.\n What you'll do\nWork with partners and vendors to capture camera and ISP requirements, and translate them into development specifications\nTune ISPs and CMOS sensors against those requirements\nBuild and evolve the pipelines we use for image quality evaluation and tuning\nDevelop drivers and firmware for CMOS and ISP control\nRun image quality tests, analyze the results, and drive improvements\nWhat you bring\nBS in Computer Science, Physics, Optics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field\nFoundational understanding of image quality concepts\nWorking proficiency in C / C++\nWorking proficiency in Python for scripting and data analysis\nFamiliarity with collaboration tools such as Git and Jira\nStrong quantitative analysis, documentation, and communication skills\nNice to have\nPrior experience in the automotive industry\nHands-on experience with image quality evaluation and tuning (e.g., MTF/SFR, color reproduction, Imatest)\nExperience with ISP algorithms such as HDR and tone mapping\nEmbedded firmware development experience\nDevelopment experience on automotive Vision SoC platforms\nExperience with CMOS image sensor control\nBenefit\nMedical, dental, and vision coverage\nOffice snacks & reimbursable meals*\nPaid Time Off \nFSA\n401K\n Equal Opportunity for Diversity & Inclusion\nPhantom AI provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants for employment and
