  • Familiarity with the Android platform stack, specifically regarding multimedia or camera subsystem integration.
  • Solid understanding of computer vision fundamentals, digital signal processing (DSP), or basic camera architectures.
  • Previous AI experience.
  • Hands-on experience developing within the Android camera framework to control, process, route, and transform real-time image streams.
  • Experience with model optimization techniques such as quantization, pruning, and hardware-specific compilation for NPUs, GPUs, or DSPs.
  • Background in developing low-latency algorithms for real-time edge applications (e.g., biometric verification, image restoration, or on-device language processing).
  • Familiarity with hardware-constrained vision pipelines, including specialized sensor integration and multi-threaded concurrency models.
  • Hands-on experience debugging low-level software utilizing hardware profiling tools to isolate memory bottlenecks and scheduling conflicts.
  • Former Meta experience.
