• Camera System Architecture & Design:

  • Lead the optronic system design, defining the critical specifications for the entire camera module, including lens assembly, image sensor, and the associated electronics.
  • Architect the optical system, specifying requirements for lens performance (MTF, distortion, FoV, stray light mitigation) and leading the technical selection of optical components and suppliers.
  • Architect the electronic imaging system, leading the selection and characterization of automotive-grade CMOS image sensors based on key performance indicators (Dynamic Range, Quantum Efficiency, SNR).

• Image Quality & ISP Tuning:

  • Define objective image quality metrics and lead the validation using industry-standard tools and methodologies (e.g., Imatest, light labs).

• Hardware Integration & Validation:

  • Oversee the electronic design and layout for the camera module, ensuring signal integrity for the high-speed MIPI-CSI2 interface between the imager and the system-on-chip (SoC).
  • Develop and execute comprehensive validation plans for the integrated camera module, covering optical performance, electronic functionality, and environmental robustness.
  • Lead all root cause analysis efforts for complex issues related to image quality, hardware performance, and system integration.

• Cross-Functional Leadership:

  • Serve as the central technical authority for the camera module, collaborating with Mechanical, Software, and Systems engineers to ensure seamless product integration.
  • Manage the technical relationship with camera module, lens, and image sensor suppliers to guarantee component performance and quality.

Candidate Profile

Education & Training:

• Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Optronics, Optical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Photonics, or a closely related field.

Professional Experience:

• 5+ years of dedicated experience in the design, development, and mass production of digital camera modules.
• Demonstrated mastery of the complete photon-to-digital pipeline, with deep, hands-on expertise in both lens systems and CMOS imagers.
• Proven track record of taking a camera module from concept to launch in a high-volume industry (automotive experience is highly preferred; machine vision, drone, or premium consumer electronics experience is also valuable).
• Experience in a lead role, defining technical direction and making critical design decisions.

Key Competences & Skills:

• Technical:

  • Optics: Expert in lens specification and optical performance metrics. Proficiency with optical simulation tools is a plus.
  • Imagers: Deep knowledge of CMOS image sensor architecture, performance trade-offs, and characterization techniques.
  • ISP: Hands-on experience tuning complex ISP pipelines for challenging environments.
  • Electronics: Strong understanding of camera electronics, including power delivery and high-speed serial interfaces (MIPI).
  • Validation: Expertise with lab equipment (spectrometers, light sources) and image quality analysis software (Imatest).

• Transversal/Professional:

  • A meticulous, data-driven approach to problem-solving.
  • Ability to work autonomously and lead technical investigations with a clear vision.
  • Excellent communication skills, capable of explaining complex optronic concepts to a cross-functional audience.
