We are looking for an experienced MIPI CSI-2 / Embedded Camera Systems Engineer to help debug and resolve complex camera driver and interface issues on TI TDA4 (Jacinto) SoC-based platforms. This role sits at the intersection of hardware signal debug, embedded Linux driver development, and automotive vision systems: Responsibilities: Debug intermittent and persistent camera capture issues (frame corruption, drops, sync failures) across the MIPI CSI-2 link on TDA4-based hardware Analyze protocol-level traces (D-PHY/C-PHY) using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and protocol decoders Debug and modify Linux kernel V4L2 subdevice drivers, media controller pipelines, and device tree camera bindings Work with TI's Processor SDK (PSDK), Vision Apps, and TIOVX framework for capture/ISP pipeline issues Collaborate with hardware/PCB teams on signal integrity issues (lane skew, termination, EMI) Integrate and validate third-party image sensors and GMSL/FPD-Link serializer-deserializer bridges Document root cause analyses and drive fixes through to closure with sensor vendors, TI, or internal hardware teams Support automotive functional safety (ISO 26262) documentation where applicable
Job Details
Responsibilities
- Debug intermittent and persistent camera capture issues across the MIPI CSI-2 link on TI TDA4-based hardware
- Analyze protocol-level traces (D-PHY/C-PHY) using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and protocol decoders
- Debug and modify Linux kernel V4L2 subdevice drivers, media controller pipelines, and device tree camera bindings
- Work with TI's Processor SDK (PSDK), Vision Apps, and TIOVX framework for capture/ISP pipeline issues
- Collaborate with hardware/PCB teams on signal integrity issues
- Integrate and validate third-party image sensors and GMSL/FPD-Link serializer-deserializer bridges
- Document root cause analyses and drive fixes through to closure with sensor vendors, TI, or internal hardware teams
- Support automotive functional safety (ISO 26262) documentation where applicable
Requirements
- 5+ years embedded Linux driver development experience, with direct MIPI CSI-2 camera work
- Strong understanding of CSI-2 protocol: D-PHY/C-PHY layers, packet structures, virtual channels, data types, ECC/CRC
- Hands-on experience with V4L2 / Media Controller framework, videobuf2, device tree configuration for camera endpoints
- Proficiency with hardware debug tools: oscilloscope, logic analyzer, protocol analyzer for CSI-2/D-PHY
- Direct experience with TI Jacinto (TDA4VM/TDA4VH) platforms, PSDK, TIOVX/Vision Apps
- Experience integrating image sensors and/or GMSL/FPD-Link deserializers (Maxim, TI DS90UBxx) in automotive contexts
- Strong debugging methodology — able to isolate issues across sensor, PHY, driver, and ISP layers
- Proficient in C, kernel debugging tools (ftrace, dynamic debug, dmesg), and scripting (Python/Bash)
