We help our customers with the challenges that are posed by the exploding amounts of data in connected cars for all sensor, video, and 3D mapping data.

In this role, you will work on the productization of cutting-edge video streaming software and algorithms, always in compliance with automotive standards and while making sure that we deliver the highest quality products. You will be closely working with Research Scientists and Software Engineers.

Tasks

• Design and develop highly performant video processing software for hardware constrained embedded devices including CPU, GPU, and DSP-based systems.
• Port, implement, and optimize video processing, computer vision, and machine learning algorithms developed by our Research Scientists and Codec Developers.
• Write high quality, well tested, and documented code, ready to run on special-purpose computing architectures used in connected car applications.
• Propose and develop creative and efficient solutions to challenges in video streaming applications and contribute to expanding our intellectual property portfolio.
• Carry out performance benchmarking and analysis to support engineering decisions.
• Provide engineering support to research efforts, working closely with Research Scientists (developing novel algorithms) and backend developers.

Requirements

• You have a Computer Science or Software Engineering background and at least 3 years of professional experience in a similar position.

• You have strong programming skills in C++ (C++14) and good working knowledge in Python.

• You have a good working knowledge of CMake and the associated set of tools (CPack, CTest, etc)

• You have a passion for and a strong experience in low level programming and you are familiar with performance optimization techniques for efficient video-data processing.
