Embedded Vision Engineer – Linux & Computer Vision

About the role

You’ll work at the intersection of embedded Linux, imaging systems, and computer vision, developing camera pipelines that operate reliably in real‑world conditions. This systems‑focused position spans hardware and software layers to deliver high‑performance, low‑latency video and vision capabilities for drone platforms.

Key responsibilities

• Develop and optimise embedded Linux camera pipelines (capture, ISP, encoding, streaming).
• Integrate and bring up camera sensors on embedded platforms (e.g., MIPI CSI, driver configuration).
• Implement and optimise computer‑vision algorithms on edge devices (e.g., detection, tracking).
• Debug issues across hardware, drivers, and application layers.
• Optimise real‑time video performance regarding latency, bandwidth and reliability.
• Work with imaging SoCs (e.g., Novatek Microelectronics or similar) to tune system performance.
• Collaborate with hardware, RF and systems teams on end‑to‑end integration.

Required profile

• Strong experience with embedded Linux development.
• Solid programming skills in C/C++.
• Hands‑on experience with camera systems and imaging pipelines.
• Practical knowledge of computer‑vision techniques.
• Understanding of hardware interfaces such as MIPI CSI, I2C and SPI.
• Systems mindset with experience in real‑world deployments, preferably in drones, robotics, automotive ADAS or surveillance.
• Experience with Novatek or comparable imaging/video SoCs is a strong plus.
