About the Role
You will lead the development of an edge-AI camera platform. It starts with prototyping and model training on NVIDIA Jetson, then moves to production hardware built on Raspberry Pi 4/5 with the Hailo-8L accelerator, or on a custom Jetson-based board. You will own the work from camera bring-up and model deployment through to custom PCB design and production readiness.
Key Responsibilities
- Bring up and tune CSI camera modules (IMX708, IMX477, IMX219 class), including the ISP, libcamera and GStreamer pipelines.
- Train, fine-tune and validate YOLO object detection models using datasets from the real deployment camera.
- Build depth estimation (monocular and stereo) and integrate it with detection.
- Deploy models on Jetson with TensorRT, and on Raspberry Pi with Hailo-8L through ONNX export, Hailo Dataflow Compiler (INT8 calibration) and HailoRT.
- Run the Jetson versus RPi + Hailo feasibility study, covering performance, cost, thermal and supply-chain tradeoffs.
- Lead schematic and PCB design for the custom board, including MIPI-CSI, PCIe and power design.
- Define test plans for accuracy, latency, FPS and thermal behavior, and verify outputs before production release.
- Document the design and mentor junior engineers.
Required Skills
- B.E./B.Tech/M.Tech in Electronics, Electrical, Computer Science or a related field.
- Strong Python and C/C++ on embedded Linux.
- Hands-on experience with NVIDIA Jetson (JetPack, CUDA, TensorRT) and Raspberry Pi.
- Practical computer vision and deep learning experience, including YOLO training and deployment.
- Camera interfacing: MIPI-CSI, V4L2, libcamera, GStreamer.
- Model optimization: ONNX, quantization, edge accelerators.
- Schematic and PCB design in Altium, KiCad or OrCAD, with high-speed signal awareness.
Preferred Skills
- Experience with Hailo, Coral or similar NPU toolchains.
- Stereo vision, calibration, or monocular depth models (MiDaS class).
- Yocto/Buildroot, custom BSP or device-tree work.
- Experience taking a hardware product from prototype to manufacturing (DFM, EMI/EMC, certification).
- Automotive or industrial vision background, including functional safety awareness.
What We Offer
Ownership of a product from first prototype to production, with a market-competitive salary and growth opportunities.
