About the role

Embedded Software Engineer (Multimedia) at Harmattan AI, focusing on expanding Linux BSP capabilities, CMOS/IR sensor integration, and the video pipeline bring-up for autonomous defense systems.

Responsibilities

  • Board Support Package (BSP): Expand and maintain Linux BSP capabilities with a specific focus on video pipeline architecture.
  • Sensor Integration: Integrate and configure CMOS and IR camera sensors via MIPI/CSI interfaces.
  • Driver Development: Configure and debug existing drivers within the Linux kernel and chip manufacturer ecosystems (NXP, NVIDIA, Qualcomm).
  • Hardware Validation: Participate in hardware design reviews and validate new designs through schematic review and physical debugging.
  • Reverse Engineering: Perform deep-system reverse engineering when documentation is incomplete to ensure robust system integration.
  • Framework Management: Utilize V4L2 and GStreamer frameworks to achieve glitch-free, continuous video streams for downstream processing.
  • Cross-Functional Support: Collaborate with Optical engineers for ISP tuning, Hardware teams for design reviews, and Computer Vision engineers to ensure acquisition meets algorithmic needs.

Qualifications

  • 5–10 years of senior-level experience in embedded systems, specifically focused on camera video acquisition for Linux.
  • Proven ability to work with chipsets from manufacturers such as NVIDIA, NXP, or Qualcomm.
  • Advanced debugging skills using laboratory tools, including oscilloscopes and logic analyzers, to investigate memory corruption or performance latency.
  • Practical experience with Video4Linux2 (V4L2) and GStreamer for video pipeline management.
  • Methodical debugger with experience in deep-system debugging and reverse engineering.
  • Experience connecting and synchronizing multiple camera modules on a single chip.
  • Highly collaborative and adaptable mindset, capable of translating hardware constraints into software requirements for multidisciplinary teams.
  • 100% dedication to Harmattan AI’s mission and readiness to solve difficult integration challenges in the drone industry.
