Qualcomm provides complete chipset solution that includes CPU, Modem, Application Processor, Multi-media engines, Interconnect and more. Power is a key area that drives the value of our chips. As fabrication technology node shrinks, and performance requirement become higher, it is crucial to provide power optimized solutions, which is the responsibility of the group that you will be working in.

Researches, designs, develops, implements, and verifies complex camera systems and HW or FW tasks (including Camera Image Signal Processor (ISP), 3A (AWB, AEC, AF), Image Quality, Features, Tuning Tools), algorithms, features, logic design, modeling, and design verification. Performs architecture, IQ modules, algorithm, and feature decomposition to drive requirements and specifications for hardware development. Ensures image quality, systems performance, ISP area and power metrics are met. 

Leverages understanding of most camera processing pipeline details, including how blocks affect the pipeline, and deep knowledge of multiple blocks to work independently on ill-defined tasks related to multiple functions or blocks, or one section of the camera pipeline, throughout the design cycle.

Collaborates with cross-functional teams to debug complex issues at a block/system level; researches new tools for debugging.

Works to address customer/product requirements in functionality and results; understands how to translate customer/product needs into task work.

Proposes and implements changes and improvements to existing and/or new features, models, or architecture to improve performance or efficiency.

Collaborates with team members and other teams across organizations and areas on the design, development, and optimization of camera systems, hardware, and/or software.

Displays deep knowledge in a specific area; acquires advanced knowledge of industry trends, and/or competitors' products, and advances in various engineering fields related to camera products; shares knowledge with others on their team and helps less experienced engineers understand and apply advanced concepts.

Writes clear and detailed technical documentation and feature descriptions for complex projects to guide users and/or customers to use or implement output.

Identifies and defines narrowly defined process improvements (e.g., scripts, workflows, new tools).

Minimum Qualifications

Over three years of industry experience in the following areas:

· Experience with signal, image and color processing

· Experience with C, C++, Python

· Experience with camera image quality tuning like denoise / detail enhancement / tone-mapping / bayer processing improvement / HDR and so on.

· Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills

Preferred Qualifications

· Experience in Qualcomm ISP tuning for IQ improvement.

· Experience in camera hardware or systems design and optimization

· Experience in Image Signal Processing design, development, implementation, and verification

· Experience in programming (e.g., C, C++, Python), computer architecture, or embedded systems
