Job Title: Image Quality Engineer III
Duration: 12 Months
Location: Redmond, WA, 98052
Summary:
- In this role, you will work with a team of scientists & engineers, using internally developed simulation tools to predict system level performance of novel products and prototypes. Analysis of the simulation results will be used to directly improve product/prototype performance.
Top 3 must-have HARD skills:
- camera - image pipeline design
- display - image pipeline design
- tone mapping and gamut mapping
- general background image signal processing or digital signal processing
- experience with optical or distortion correction, color imagery
Good to have skills:
- NOT someone who can tune the image pipeline, but DESIGN
- Understand what they are doing and why they are doing it
- More than just tuning but Theory and Depth
- Seeing projects through end to end
- Systems level engineering
Job Responsibilities:
- Use simulation tools to model end-to-end performance of display systems
- Report analysis of these simulations to establish specifications for these display systems and ensure a successful product
- Collaborate with the larger research team to explore concepts and drive system performance to create compelling experiences
Minimum Qualifications:
Knowledge of several of the following:
- µLED, OLED, LCD, LCOS, DMD, etc based displays, display metrology/calibration, image signal processing, camera ISP, display pipeline architecture, digital filters, colorimetry, color space conversions, imaging waveguides, image quality metrics, human perception.
- Experience with image algorithm/ISP development, convolutions, Fourier transforms
- Deep experience in MATLAB
- BS in Engineering, Physics, Optics, Computer Science, Color Science, Electrical Engineering or equivalent work/education experience.
Preferred Qualifications:
- MS in the field of Optical Engineering, Physics, Electrical Engineering or related degree, PhD preferred
- 5+ years of experience in research or advanced display/camera development.
Story Behind the Need - Business Group & Key Projects:
- This person will be working on Artemis 1st - the better they are, the more they can do
Compelling Story & Candidate Value Proposition:
- This team is able to work on all products- XFN work, high visibility, direct impact, will be meaningful to huge number of people,
- Great opportunity to learn new things all the time.
- Write real software
Typical Day in the Role:
- will be assigned different sections of the workload
- New projects all the time- Well-defined on what to do, how to do it, - produce a presentation and present it to the team
- 2 to 3 weeks on a project, then something new
- Work on things the way they want to - intellectual freedom to solve problems
