6 months

As a Systems Engineer for Calibration, you will work with camera and display calibration equipment, test and characterize it, as well as define the calibration procedure. You will work closely with teams developing novel sensors, silicon, and integrated products to guarantee successful calibration and establish clear interfaces and quality gates. You will troubleshoot system-wide calibration issues spanning mechanical, electrical, optical and software failures. You will write software to facilitate calibration and testing workflows, as well as process relevant data. You will partner with manufacturing teams to deploy calibration functionality in the factory.

Responsibilities

• Setting up and maintaining data collection SW and HW including OS/firmware updates and connection to sensor components.
• Basic SW (mostly C++) debugging, understand different kinds of error analysis and communicate with other Research Engineers and Scientists.
• Consumer devices HW bring-up and functionalities verification.
• Design and execute experiments to validate product quality and investigate HW/SW issues.
• Design and commission automation procedures for robotics experiments.
• Perform devices calibration with proprietary equipment.
• Commission and operate complex measurement and test equipment
• Documentation of various processes and techniques with help from the core team.
