Job description
As an Embedded Software Engineer for Camera Systems at Impulse, your primary responsibility will be to design, implement, and maintain firmware for image capture and processing systems on spacecraft. You will collaborate with avionics, flight software, and GNC engineers to interface with imaging hardware, support ground and flight tests, and ensure high reliability under harsh environmental conditions.
Develop low-level drivers and control software for camera modules using interfaces like MIPI CSI-2, USB, SPI, and I2C. Interface with commercial and custom image sensors, implementing robust and efficient data pipelines. Implement camera configuration, triggering, and synchronization logic. Support data capture and streaming during ground tests and in-flight operations.
Collaborate with image processing and perception teams to define firmware requirements and APIs. Contribute to bring-up, debugging, and tuning of camera subsystems in hardware-in-the-loop setups. Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical field. 2+ years of experience writing C/C++ code for embedded systems, preferably in imaging or robotic applications.
Demonstrated experience using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, hardware debuggers, and source-level debuggers to troubleshoot problems at all layers of the stack. Demonstrated understanding of I2C, SPI, and MIPI-based camera interfaces.
