Job Type: Full-time

We are seeking a skilled Image Sensor Integration & Validation Engineer to support the development, integration, and validation of next-generation imaging systems for advanced embedded and automotive platforms. This role is ideal for professionals with strong expertise in Image Sensors, Secure MIPI, SPDM, and embedded validation who are passionate about building secure, high-performance imaging solutions.

As an Image Sensor Integration & Validation Engineer, you will be responsible for end-to-end sensor integration, secure protocol implementation, validation, and automation. Working closely with hardware, software, and system engineering teams, you will develop robust test frameworks, troubleshoot complex HW/SW interactions, and ensure compliance with industry-standard development processes, including ASPICE. This role offers the opportunity to work on cutting-edge imaging technologies while contributing to highly reliable and secure embedded systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the end-to-end integration and validation of image sensors within embedded and automotive imaging platforms.
• Implement and validate secure communication protocols, including Secure MIPI and SPDM, to enable secure device authentication and encrypted data transfer.
• Design, develop, and maintain automation frameworks and validation scripts using Python to improve testing efficiency and reduce manual effort.
• Develop and execute validation plans while ensuring complete traceability and compliance with ASPICE development processes.
• Support verification of ISP pipelines, image processing workflows, and device driver integration.
• Perform in-depth debugging of hardware and software interfaces using logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and protocol analyzers to resolve complex integration issues.
• Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to optimize sensor performance, reliability, and system functionality.
• Analyze validation results, identify root causes, and recommend corrective actions for hardware and software issues.
• Prepare technical documentation, validation reports, and test artifacts to support product development and release activities.
• Stay current with emerging imaging technologies, embedded platforms, and industry best practices.

What Makes You a Great Fit

• 4+ years of experience in embedded systems, semiconductor validation, or automotive imaging solutions.
• Strong hands-on expertise in Image Sensor Integration, Secure MIPI, and SPDM protocols.
• Advanced proficiency in Python for automation, scripting, and validation framework development.
• Solid programming skills in C/C++ for low-level software development and debugging.
• Good understanding of ISP pipelines, image processing concepts, and device driver development.
• Experience working within ASPICE development and validation environments.
• Familiarity with embedded platforms, Android, Linux, RTL, and FPGA-based validation environments.
• Experience using hardware debugging tools such as logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and MIPI/I2C protocol analyzers.
• Exposure to HAPS-based FPGA validation is an added advantage.
• Strong analytical, troubleshooting, communication, and collaboration skills with a passion for delivering secure, high-quality embedded imaging solutions.
