A deep-tech startup building real-time vision intelligence systems, is looking for a hands-on Embedded Hardware & System Integration Engineer to join its team and help develop advanced electro-optical systems for real-world applications.
This role is focused on hardware and system integration-not algorithms or optics. We are looking for someone who enjoys working with sensors, cameras, interfaces, suppliers, debugging, and bringing complex systems from concept to a reliable product.
Responsibilities:
Select and evaluate hardware components for electro-optical systems.
Analyze datasheets, ICDs, application notes, and technical specifications.
Work directly with suppliers on technical evaluations, integration requirements, and component selection.
Integrate cameras, sensors, and peripherals with embedded/edge computing platforms (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson).
Support hardware bring-up, system integration, testing, and debugging.
Troubleshoot issues related to hardware, power, communications, drivers, cabling, thermal performance, and system stability.
Define and execute component-level and system-level validation tests.
Maintain BOMs, wiring diagrams, integration documentation, and test procedures.
Support transition from prototype to production and field deployment.
Requirements: Hands-on experience in embedded hardware, system integration, or related engineering roles.
Experience integrating cameras, sensors, controllers, or electro-optical systems.
Experience with NVIDIA Jetson or similar embedded/edge computing platforms.
Familiarity with interfaces such as MIPI/CSI, USB, Ethernet, UART, I2C, SPI, GPIO, CAN, GMSL, or FPD-Link.
Ability to read and interpret technical specifications and evaluate real-world feasibility.
Experience working with hardware vendors and external suppliers.
Good understanding of power systems, signal interfaces, grounding, and wiring.
Strong lab, troubleshooting, and debugging capabilities.
Self-driven, hands-on, and comfortable working in a startup environment.
Advantage:
Experience with EO/IR systems, thermal cameras, PTZ systems, or LRF.
Experience with high-bandwidth camera interfaces.
Background in defense, ruggedized, or field-deployed products.
Familiarity with EMI/EMC, environmental or reliability testing.
Experience with NPI, hardware validation, or production transfer processes.
This position is open to all candidates.
