Camera Control-Systems Engineer
Apply NowCompany: Apple
Location: Cupertino, CA 95014
Description:
Summary
Do you love taking on big challenges that require exceptionally creative solutions? Do you deeply understand how an incredible camera experience should work? As part of our Camera Technologies group, you'll help design the innovative technology that allows each generation of Apple products to produce photos even more incredible than the last. You'll design and develop groundbreaking ideas for everything involved in our camera systems, from sensor to lens. You'll collaborate with teams across Apple to research, design, develop, test, and qualify camera hardware for Apple products. Together, we'll craft a magical photography experience that redefines what millions of customers can expect from their cameras.
The Camera Systems Engineering Group develops systems, calibration, and correction procedures to maintain high image quality over a wide range of use cases and component variation. Past projects have addressed, autofocus, image stabilization, position sensing, stereo imaging, special-case optimizations (low-light, high disturbance, etc), support of factory operations. The team is seeking an exceptional control systems engineer with broad skills to design and develop the next generation of camera technology.
Description
Camera control-systems engineering involves systems-level analysis and modeling of imaging and sensing systems, modeling dynamic systems, developing robust control strategies, design and construction of prototypes to guide development, definition of test procedures, and documentation of requirements and design considerations. Typical responsibilities in this role would include:
Systems-level analysis and modeling of electromechanical systems
Control systems analysis, synthesis, and implementation
Measurement system prototyping, including HW, FW and SW development
Automation of measurement procedures and data analysis (Matlab, Python, etc.)
Interfaces and components for electromechanical applications (laser metrology, micro controllers, magnetic sensors, actuators)
Work with multidisciplinary subjects related to control systems applications in electro-mechanical devices (firmware realizations, actuators, sensors, mechanical and electrical engineering, etc)
Defining, documenting, publishing and maintaining system specifications
Defining subsystem and system level tests to characterize and/or guarantee parametric specifications
Management of project deliverables and schedules to meet commitments to product development teams
Discovering and tracking external technology development by suppliers, competitors, and academia
Occasional international travel to existing and potential vendors of camera technology
