Job description

As a Camera Silicon Architect, you are at the heart of defining the future of imaging for Apple products. Your core responsibility lies in pioneering image sensor architectures that power Apple’s camera systems. This involves not just conceptualizing new features, but deeply understanding the intricate interplay between optics, sensor technology, silicon design, and software. You will tackle complex, multi-disciplinary challenges, translating ambitious product goals into concrete silicon requirements and algorithmic solutions that push the boundaries of image quality and user experience. You will explore emerging technologies, analyze system-level constraints, and drive architectural decisions from early concept phases all the way through to silicon bring-up and productization. Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field Experience with high performance and low power image sensor architecture design Experience on leading development of image sensing devices or mixed-signal designs 10+ years of relevant industry experience Ability to drive and lead technical initiatives across distributed multi-disciplinary teams Being familiar with general industry trends and technical challenges for high performance and low power imaging sensors/systems is a strong plus Ability to methodically derive design and verification requirements from design specifications and drive design activities toward compliance to requirements Being familiar with image sensor manufacturing technology, image sensor performance metrics, image sensor usage and integration into camera systems is a strong plus Experience with modeling and simulating device/system designs to assess power/performance/area/bandwidth/latency tradeoffs Experience in algorithm development and signal processing data-path design Experience in Matlab, C, Python or other programming/scripting languages
