About this role

This role develops image sensor devices for digital cameras in the Imaging Business Division. Responsibilities include concept design and specification setting for systems centered on image sensors, circuit design, and evaluation. The position also covers development, verification, and implementation of correction algorithms, as well as management of external design contractors.

The work involves examining image sensor operation, functions, performance, and characteristics, together with the design, verification, and evaluation of circuits surrounding the sensor. It may also include data-flow design with an image-processing engine and development, verification, and implementation of image-correction algorithms. Development is carried out with multiple internal departments, including mechanical, electrical, firmware, marketing, and production teams, and involves domestic and international stakeholders.

Applicants must have at least three years of experience in image sensor development. Experience in semiconductor design, development, or manufacturing; image processing or correction algorithm development; and optical component development is welcomed. The position calls for people who can act proactively, take on new tasks, coordinate multiple related departments from a central role, and address challenges positively when launching new technologies or systems.

The position is a permanent, full-time role. Remote work is available, and the work-from-home utilization rate is 20–30%.

The probationary period is three months. The selection process consists of document screening, a departmental interview with a personality assessment to be completed beforehand, and a final interview. After joining, the employee participates as an immediately contributing project member and may develop as a hardware or systems engineer, pursue an expert engineering path, or move toward management. Training is coordinated with algorithm, sensor, and camera systems development departments.
