Description

Join the cutting-edge team at Samsung R&D Center as we embark on shaping the future of technology today. Beyond merely envisioning the horizon, we are actively pushing boundaries in various key areas of innovation. Samsung is committed to pioneering continuous advancements, delivering value to society, and fostering an environment where our employees can fully unleash their talents, creativity, and passion. Join us in building the tomorrow we envision. The Group Our group develops image sensors that are integrated into the cameras of all leading smartphone brands. Team members are expected to gain a deep understanding of all systems layers from block and IP level through chip and system up to user interfaces. What will you do? The role involves an in-depth exploration of image sensors and smartphone photography. You will learn about the tradeoffs between image quality, resolution, dynamic range, chip size, and power. Develop firmware in C on embedded processors with limited memory footprints. Develop firmware that controls and manages the entire chip system and datapath: Boot sequence, Control of Image processing blocks, HW IP configuration, Implementing RT algorithms, communication with external IC, Interface with the smartphone Application Processor, memory management, and much more. Implement and optimize algorithms taking advantage of hardware accelerators. Influence system architecture, algorithms and hardware design. Develop low-level unit and system-level tests. Both on Simulation and Emulation. Develop tools to update and debug the firmware, and emulation environment. Tightly collaborate with engineers from teams such as Algorithms, Analog, Digital Design, Digital Verification, FW Verification and FAEs. Find software solutions to image quality problems post-silicon. Requirements B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience. At least 3 years of experience in real-time embedded systems firmware development. Extensive C programming experience. Ability to write efficient code with limited HW resources. Ability to understand the full system requirements, constraints and limitations. Excellent teamwork skills, flexibility, and ability to handle multiple tasks. Apability to quickly grasp new fields and technologies. Advantages: Experience in developing and debugging integrated hardware-software systems during the hardware development stage. Experience in firmware development on hardware emulators such as FPGA and Cadence Palladium. Proficient in Python and C++ programming. Experience with Arm Cortex-based CPUs, RISC-V ISA CPUs. Algorithmic and analytic capabilities.

Responsibilities

Develop and optimize C-based firmware for image sensors, managing the entire chip system, datapath, and boot sequences. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to influence system architecture and resolve post-silicon image quality issues.
