TL;DR · Camera Calibration and Test Engineer

JOB TITLE: Camera Calibration and Test Engineer As part of the Camera Technologies group, the Camera Calibration and Test Engineer manages vendor projects and test maturity preparation for module integrators and VCM vendors. This role ensures high-quality standards for cameras across various products by overseeing test coverage, hardware, and software solutions. Key responsibilities include collaborating with multi-functional teams to define tests for SFR, VCM and OIS calibration, electrical noise, and color calibrations. The engineer must manage vendor teams, perform qualification checks, and participate in post-build FACA activities to improve tester efficiency. Required skills include experience in CMOS image sensor test, lens quality analysis, or VCM actuation. Candidates should possess data analysis knowledge and the ability to review and modify source codes in MATLAB and Python to solve complex imaging problems.

What you'll do

  • Define test coverage for SFR, VCM/OIS calibration, electrical noise, and color calibrations.
  • Design and implement cost-effective test hardware and software solutions with vendors.
  • Supervise Module Integrators on manufacturing progress and perform rigorous qualification checks.
  • Manage vendor projects to improve tester UPH, retest rates, and overall efficiency.
  • Review and modify source codes using MATLAB and Python for testing purposes.
  • Analyze mechanical and electrical designs for sockets, fixtures, and test systems.
  • Travel to Asia as needed to oversee vendor operations and manufacturing preparation.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, Color Science, Imaging Science, or a related field.
  • Experience in CMOS image sensor test/validation, lens quality analysis, ATE, VCM actuation, position sensor calibration, image quality analysis, or data analysis.
  • Ability to travel to Module Integrators in Asia for periods of two weeks at a time.
  • Second-language skills in Korean, Japanese, or Mandarin Chinese (preferred).
  • Ability to perform assignments at both a theoretical, high-level and practical, detailed level (preferred).
  • Proficiency in managing vendor teams, hosting cross-time zone meetings, and breaking down complex assignments into executable tasks (preferred).
  • Knowledge in reviewing mechanical and electrical designs for sockets, fixtures, and test systems (preferred).
  • Capability to review and modify source codes in MATLAB/Python (preferred).
