Job Description

Senior Camera Tuning Engineer tuning wearable camera ISPs, 3A, and image quality. Fresh Consulting delivers digital innovation through design, software, and hardware engineering.

Responsibilities:

  • Own the full tuning chain: black level, lens shading, defect correction, demosaic, noise reduction, sharpening, color matrices, gamma, tone mapping, and overall look
  • Tune 3A (exposure, white balance, flicker) on a wearable platform where convergence behavior during rapid lighting transitions matters more than steady-state accuracy
  • Make low light work without optical stabilization, using multi-frame techniques that respect a strict power budget
  • Handle motion, including ghosting and fusion artifacts from a head-mounted camera that is always moving
  • Build the measurement methodology for model-facing image quality, scoring tuning on downstream task accuracy, and determine whether to ship one tuning or two
  • Define what gets calibrated on every unit in production versus what ships as a single golden tuning
  • Stand up objective and subjective validation, with regression tracking that holds up against a release schedule

Requirements:

  • 5+ years of camera tuning experience, including at least two shipped products tuned end to end
  • Deep hands-on experience with a vendor tuning toolchain
  • Fluency across the full ISP blockchain, able to look at an image and name the block responsible
  • Hands-on 3A tuning experience, not only 3A configuration
  • Knowledge of objective IQ methodology and standards, including ISO 12233, ISO 15739, ISO 14524, and CPIQ
  • Lab experience with controlled illuminants, chart-based measurement, uniform sources, and reflectance targets
  • Proficiency in Python or MATLAB
  • Ability to defend a tuning decision with data, and change it when the data changes
  • Experience with Qualcomm Spectra and Chromatix (preferred)
  • Experience tuning or evaluating imagery for machine-learning consumption (preferred)
  • Low-light and multi-frame tuning without optical stabilization (preferred)
  • Wearable, action camera, automotive, or other non-handset tuning experience (preferred)
  • Experience with Imatest, DXO Analyzer, or Image Engineering toolchains (preferred)
  • Experience standing up a tuning lab from scratch (preferred)

Benefits:

  • unlimited PTO
  • 401(k) match
  • a bonus percentage tied to role
  • fully reimbursed travel and expenses
  • unlimited e-learning through Coursera
  • relocation assistance
