Vision Systems Architect (w/m/d) - experience in embedded system architecture, vision/AI, C++, [...]

Owns the end-to-end vision and AI architecture for consumer devices. Defines scalable, power-efficient, and production-ready imaging and perception systems across product lines. Drives technical direction across sensor, ISP, CV, ML, and platform integration.

Responsibilities

• Translate product and UX requirements into scalable technical solutions
• Define image quality strategy aligned with AI and user experience goals
• Drive system-level trade‑offs across performance, power, cost, and thermal limits
• Define AI model lifecycle strategy from training to OTA deployment
• Define system KPIs: latency, FPS, power, memory, boot time, and robustness
• Lead technology selection for inference engines, frameworks, and hardware platforms
• Guide SoC bring‑up and performance validation for vision pipelines
• Establish coding standards, modularization strategy, and long-term maintainability
• Identify technical risks early and define mitigation strategies
• Collaborate with hardware, ISP, Android/Linux platform, and product teams
• Mentor senior engineers and provide architectural governance
• Contribute to long‑term vision/AI roadmap across product generations.

Skills

Must have

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field (PhD preferred)
• 10-15+ years of experience in imaging/vision/perception systems
• Proven experience architecting and shipping multiple consumer products with vision/AI
• Deep understanding of imaging pipeline (sensor behavior, ISP, tuning impact)
• Strong embedded system architecture experience
• Expert-level C++ and system-level optimization knowledge
• Strong expertise in CV and ML system integration
• Experience deploying optimized ML models on consumer SoCs
• Experience with heterogeneous compute architectures
• Experience defining system-level KPIs and validation strategies.
• Strong cross-functional leadership and communication skills.
• Open for frequent business trips to Dubai
