JOB SUMMARY
The Computer Vision Algorithm Engineer role focused on ADAS perception that turns camera video feeds (image frames) into a clear understanding of the vehicle’s surroundings. The work spans concept through serial production: design and simulate algorithms, analyze and replay data, build and test classical and deep learning models, and optimize for real-time execution on production ECUs. Core tasks include object detection, segmentation, tracking, and image enhancement while meeting accuracy, latency, memory, and power targets. A strong background in image processing, machine learning, and mathematics/physics is required, with familiarity in vehicle dynamics considered a plus.
ESSENTIAL JOB FUNCTIONS
- Develop (design, implement, optimize) conventional image processing algorithms for automotive embedded serial production projects.
- Design, develop/tune, and optimize deep learning models for ADAS computer vision features (e.g., pruning, quantization) and improve computational performance.
- Plan and execute experiments to assess deep learning model effectiveness, compare architectures, and validate results through rigorous component/bench testing.
- Strong knowledge of various camera models; lens distortion correction; homograph and projective transformations mathematical techniques
- Analyze large datasets to extract insights, refine models, and improve overall performance and robustness.
- Stay current with deep learning advances and incorporate innovative techniques and research findings into projects.
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary (requirements, embedded, testing) teams to integrate models into existing systems and ensure seamless operation within the product ecosystem.
- Document development processes, maintain detailed experiment logs, and present findings clearly to stakeholders.
- Analyze defects and test results; perform root-cause analysis and implement algorithm improvements to achieve KPIs.
- Independently deliver intermediate-to-advanced ADAS algorithm design, implementation, and testing.
- Perform other duties in support of business objectives; maintain regular attendance; follow safe work procedures and PPE requirements; report hazards, injuries, and illnesses promptly; comply with Quality Operating System (QOS) and all safety regulations.
JOB REQUIREMENTS
Education/Experience
- Master’s degree in computer engineering, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent.
- Minimum of 3 years of experience in computer vision and image‑processing algorithm development using traditional methods and deep learning, with proven expertise in developing and implementing DNN models.
- Excellent programming skills with C or C++; familiarity with Python with proficiency in deep learning frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras) is advantageous.
- Strong grasp of machine learning concepts and neural network architectures (CNNs, RNNs, transformers).
- Experience in image segmentation, object detection, and image data preparation/enhancement (e.g., normalization, augmentation, filtering, noise reduction, contrast adjustment, image restoration).
- Experience in optimizing models for performance, including technique
