Job Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and optimize camera-related system services and middleware on QNX platforms.
• Integrate camera frameworks, HAL layers, and image signal processing (ISP) pipelines on automotive SoCs (e.g., Qualcomm SA8155, SA8295, SA6145).
• Develop and maintain POSIX-compliant camera control modules, handling streaming, buffer management, and synchronization.
• Implement and debug multi-threaded, real-time camera software components using QNX APIs and resource managers.
• Collaborate with BSP, driver, and perception teams for seamless camera sensor and ISP bring-up.
• Configure and optimize QNX system services for low-latency camera capture and efficient data flow.
• Support integration of camera data into perception, ADAS, and display pipelines.
• Analyze and enhance system performance, boot time, and memory usage specific to camera subsystems.
• Debug kernel and user-space issues using QNX tools such as pidin, qconn, and System Profiler.
• Collaborate with Android/Linux coexisting systems for cross-domain camera communication.
• Participate in code reviews, system validation, and ensure compliance with ASPICE, ISO 26262, and OEM-specific standards.

Skills Needed:

• 4–10 years of embedded software development, with a focus on camera systems or QNX-based automotive platforms.
• Strong understanding of QNX Neutrino RTOS, process model, IPC mechanisms, and memory management.
• Proficiency in C/C++ , multi-threading, and real-time data handling.
• Experience developing system daemons, camera HALs, or middleware services on QNX.
• Hands-on experience with Momentics IDE, QNX SDKs, and debugging tools.
• Exposure to Qualcomm automotive SoCs (SA8155/SA8295/SA6145) or similar chipsets.
• Familiarity with camera sensors, ISPs, and image data streaming (e.g., GMSL, MIPI-CSI).
• Knowledge of communication frameworks such as SOME/IP, D-Bus, and CAN.
• Understanding of safety-critical software and ISO 26262 concepts preferred.
• Experience with build systems (Make, CMake, Yocto) and version control (Git).
• Bonus: Experience with Android-QNX coexistence or virtualized camera subsystems.

Soft Skills:

• Strong analytical and debugging skills in real-time environments.
• Excellent teamwork and communication with cross-functional domains (BSP, Connectivity, Middleware, Integration).
• Ability to work independently and take ownership of system modules.
• Process-oriented, with attention to detail and commitment to quality.
• Enthusiastic about embedded systems and in-vehicle software innovation.
