We're looking to hire a sensor architect with specialized technical skills and a background in depth, image and other types of optical sensor development. Successful candidates will have previous experience driving architecture convergence on complex consumer electronics products, as well as experience with silicon definition and evaluation and systems understanding. This role will work collaboratively with experts in different fields to make new sensing architecture or tradeoffs for definition, selection and integration of leading edge optical sensors into product.
Image Sensor Architect Responsibilities:
- Own sensor technology and architecture roadmap.
- Lead technical efforts to architect novel image/depth sensors.
- Conduct review and trade-off studies for different sensor technologies solutions from leading sensor vendors and research institutes. Influence their research roadmaps, identify opportunity for deeper collaboration
- Work with XFN teams to define mid / long term strategy on sensor technologies, influencing team's key investment by communicating it effectively to both internal and external stakeholders.
