Summary（岗位介绍）

As a Camera System Validation Engineer, you will lead along with internal design teams from early conceptualization and development of high fidelity prototypes to deliver high volume consumer products. As a lead member of the core development team that bridges the space between one-off Product Engineering prototypes and manufacturing partners, your responsibilities will help shape the future success of our products. Your role will collaborate cross-functionally within the engineering community leading along with ME, EE, OE, FW, SW, MFG, RE and Test disciplines.

You will be a core member of the AR Integration Team supporting all phases of the AR Product Development from prototypes to engineering builds. Leveraging excellent technical communication skills and hands-on prototyping skills, they’ll work to validate designs, communicate results and collaborate on design solutions. You will own the system level camera performance validation through the creation of test vehicles, camera test platforms, and generation of technical tools for the next generation of AR products. The ideal candidate has demonstrated the ability of leading along with internal design teams and external production partners. The candidate will also have an extraordinary ability to communicate to all levels of an organization – from management and higher-level strategy planning to the technicians and leads on a manufacturing floor.
