About The Job

Our computational challenges are so big, complex and unique we can’t just purchase off-the-shelf hardware, we’ve got to make it ourselves. Your team designs and builds the hardware, software and networking technologies that power all of Google’s services. As a Hardware Engineer, you design and build the systems that are the heart of the world’s largest and most powerful computing infrastructure. You develop from the lowest levels of circuit design to large system design and see those systems all the way through to high volume manufacturing. Your work has the potential to shape the machinery that goes into our cutting-edge data centers affecting millions of Google users.

As an Image Tuning Engineer, you will research the algorithms in an Image Signal Processor (ISP) and come out with a tuning methodology to make the most of the ISP. You will also characterize the image sensor for the ISP to adaptively change the tuning setting.

Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Hardware team researches, designs, and develops new technologies and hardware to make our user’s interaction with computing faster, more powerful, and seamless. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, our Hardware team is making people’s lives better through technology.

Responsibilities

• Manage final image quality tuning of consumer cameras.
• Work with external vendors and internal groups to optimize camera performance.
• Characterize image sensors.
• Write tuning automation tools.
• Establish tuning flow and provide tuning guides.
