Hardware Engineer (Sensor Characterization)

JOB TITLE: Hardware Engineer III
LOCATION: Sunnyvale, CA
DURATION: 2 Year
PAY RANGE: $70-$75/hour
Summary:
The main function of a metrology engineer is to evaluate both custom-design and OTS sensor to contribute to sensor technology innovation and AR/VR, and other wearable device development.
Job Responsibilities:

• Develop new image sensor characterization methodologies to evaluate sensor performance based on VR/AR application
• Help to standardize image sensor characterization test flow by creating test plan, developing test standard, and building up standard data analysis program
• Collaborate with sensor architect and tech lead to evaluate and develop new image sensors
• Performing image sensor characterization test following standard testing flow
• Create, maintain, and operate opto-electronic test benches based on different use case requirements
• Responsible for data collection, data analysis, documenting and presenting test results to both internal and external engineering teams
• Develop automation test scripts using Python, MATLAB, or C/C++
• Responsible for sensor debugging, root cause analysis, and problem solving

Minimum Qualification

• Master in Electrical Engineering, Optics, Physics, or a related discipline
• 3+ years of electro-optical image sensor characterization experience
• In-depth knowledge of image sensor standard characterization test, such as PTC, noise, QE, DR, SNR, and MTF.
• Hands-on experience with image sensor characterization hardware and software
• Proficiency in programming with coding languages, example: C/C++, Python, or MATLAB
• Knowledge of device physics, statistic data analysis and knowledge with imaging process

Preferred Qualification

• Ph.D in Electrical Engineering, Optics, Physics, or a related discipline
• Proof of experience in developing sensor specifications and working with new sensor development knowledge of industry standards
