TL;DR · Camera Algorithms Engineer

As a Camera Algorithms Engineer, you will join the Camera Algorithm team to develop image capture and processing algorithms for all product cameras. You will work on core camera, ISP, and Machine Learning technologies based on a custom image signal processing pipeline and hardware components like the Apple Neural Engine. Your daily responsibilities include scene understanding, auto exposure ISP algorithm development, architecture configuration, pixel processing tuning, tone rendering for SDR and HDR displays, and color management. You will also develop machine learning solutions for real-time image processing with low latency and power consumption. The role requires expertise in ISP hardware processing pipelines, camera module optical stacks, and CMOS Bayer sensors. You will solve complex problems regarding how cameras capture, process, and render high-quality still images and video content through technical innovation and collaboration.

What you'll do

  • Develop and tune scene understanding and auto exposure ISP algorithms.
  • Configure and tune architecture and pixel processing components.
  • Perform tone rendering and grading for SDR and HDR displays.
  • Implement auto white balance and color management systems.
  • Develop runtime optical flow, image registration, and fusion techniques.
  • Create machine learning solutions for real-time image processing with low power consumption.
  • Optimize image capture and rendering algorithms for Apple hardware components.

What we're looking for

  • MS degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Math, Physics, or a similar field.
  • Hands-on experience in run time ISP algorithm development.
  • Knowledge of ISP hardware processing pipelines.
  • Knowledge of camera module optical stacks and CMOS Bayer sensors.
  • Deep understanding of sensor characteristics, optics, and image signal processing for mobile imaging systems (preferred).
  • Dedication to disciplined practice from problem identification to engineering implementation using machine learning and image processing techniques (preferred).
  • Passion for image quality excellence (preferred).
