Job Name: Embedded Camera Systems Engineer

Role:​

We are looking for an experienced MIPI CSI-2 / Embedded Camera Systems Engineer to help debug and resolve complex camera driver and interface issues on TI TDA4 (Jacinto) SoC-based platforms. This role sits at the intersection of hardware signal debug, embedded Linux driver development, and automotive vision systems:

• Debug intermittent and persistent camera capture issues (frame corruption, drops, sync failures) across the MIPI CSI-2 link on TDA4-based hardware
• Analyze protocol-level traces (D-PHY/C-PHY) using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and protocol decoders
• Debug and modify Linux kernel V4L2 subdevice drivers, media controller pipelines, and device tree camera bindings
• Work with TI's Processor SDK (PSDK), Vision Apps, and TIOVX framework for capture/ISP pipeline issues
• Collaborate with hardware/PCB teams on signal integrity issues (lane skew, termination, EMI)
• Integrate and validate third-party image sensors and GMSL/FPD-Link serializer-deserializer bridges
• Document root cause analyses and drive fixes through to closure with sensor vendors, TI, or internal hardware teams

• 5+ years embedded Linux driver development experience, with direct MIPI CSI-2 camera work
• Strong understanding of CSI-2 protocol: D-PHY/C-PHY layers, packet structures, virtual channels, data types, ECC/CRC
• Hands-on experience with V4L2 / Media Controller framework, videobuf2, device tree configuration for camera endpoints
• Proficiency with hardware debug tools: oscilloscope, logic analyzer, protocol analyzer for CSI-2/D-PHY
• Direct experience with TI Jacinto (TDA4VM/TDA4VH) platforms, PSDK, TIOVX/Vision Apps
• Experience integrating image sensors and/or GMSL/FPD-Link deserializers (Maxim, TI DS90UBxx) in automotive contexts
• Strong debugging methodology — able to isolate issues across sensor, PHY, driver, and ISP layers
• Proficient in C, kernel debugging tools (ftrace, dynamic debug, dmesg), and scripting (Python/Bash)

• Experience with TI VPAC/ISP tuning and image quality pipelines
• Automotive functional safety experience (ISO 26262, ASIL-rated camera links)
• Multi-camera synchronization experience in ADAS systems
• Prior direct engagement with TI support/FAE teams on Jacinto platform issues
• Contributions to upstream Linux kernel media/camera subsystem

• Experience with RTOS-side capture handling (R5F/C7x cores) on TDA4
• Familiarity with functional safety diagnostic coverage for camera data paths
