Design, implement, and commercialize middleware/driver modules for multimedia on Qualcomm multi-processor chipsets across Windows, Linux, and Android platforms. Work on user and kernel mode software for video compression, playback, streaming, and imaging applications while optimizing for performance, latency, power, and stability.…See more Collaborate with systems engineering, test groups, and partners like Microsoft and Google across multiple sites. Requires 1–5 years of embedded software development, strong C/C++ skills, video compression standards knowledge (H.264, H.265, AV1), and expertise in embedded real-time OS debugging and ARM SoC development.

Design, implement, integrate, and commercialize video software modules on Qualcomm SoCs, including user and kernel mode drivers for playback, streaming, camcorder, and DRM use cases. Develop and optimize video compression, streaming protocols, and Agentic AI frameworks on Linux platforms while meeting performance, latency, power, and stability requirements.…See more Work with hardware and systems engineers to integrate cutting-edge video technology on Snapdragon processors for mobile and AI inferencing platforms. Requires expertise in Linux kernel development (V4L2, device drivers), video compression standards (H.264/H.265/AV1), streaming protocols (HLS/HTTP/RTSP/DASH), and embedded systems debugging.

Design and optimize video analysis and quality assessment algorithms for next-generation video codec hardware accelerators (FPGA/ASIC). Implement C-models and firmware for advanced video encoding, collaborating across algorithm, architecture, software, and hardware teams.…See more Apply machine learning techniques including deep learning frameworks and transformer architectures for ROI detection, content understanding, and feature extraction. Integrate algorithms into production VOD/live streaming workflows and validate impact through A/B testing and objective quality metrics (VMAF, PSNR, SSIM).

Design and optimize video analysis, quality assessment, and encoding algorithms for hardware-accelerated video codec solutions (FPGA/ASIC). Develop C-models and firmware for real-time video processing, implementing algorithms for ROI detection, content understanding, frame-level rate control, and objective quality metrics.…See more Collaborate with infrastructure and platform teams to integrate algorithms into production VOD and live-streaming workflows, validate performance through A/B testing, and optimize end-to-end video quality. The role requires strong programming skills in C/C++ or Python, knowledge of video quality standards (VMAF, PSNR, SSIM), and ideally experience with deep learning frameworks, video codecs, or embedded real-time systems.
