Our work at NVIDIA is dedicated towards a computing model focused on visual and AI computing. For two decades, NVIDIA has pioneered visual computing, the art and science of computer graphics, with our invention of the GPU. The GPU has also shown to be spectacularly effective at solving some of the most complex problems in computer science. Today, NVIDIA’s GPU simulates human intelligence, running deep learning algorithms and acting as the brain of computers, robots and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand the world. We are looking to grow our company and teams with the smartest people in the world and there has never been a more exciting time to join our team!

We are the Sensor Systems Engineering team responsible for design specification and evaluation of reference sensors for NVIDIA products. Our robotics and automotive platforms use a wide array of sensing technologies from RF, optical, ultrasonics to MEMS. We are currently looking for an intern with a solid imaging background to join our team to conduct comprehensive evaluation on the latest developments in automotive image sensor technologies. By collaborating with the team and image sensor vendors, you will craft the next generation imager benchmark protocol to guide our image sensor selection. Do you want to work on state of the state technology like autonomous vehicles ? If you are passionate about photography and want to learn more about the constellation of sensors we use, this is a perfect opportunity to work with a phenomenal team!

What you’ll be doing:Design sensor characterization test protocol with camera engineersBring up image sensor evaluation kit HW platforms and SW toolsCollect image data and craft scripts to automate data gatheringAnalyze the data and extract sensor performance metricsWrite data capture instruction and form sensor evaluation test report templatePresent and review data with the project team membersWhat we need to see:Pursuing a MS/PhD student or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Optical Sciences or related fieldProficient in solving/debugging issues with device drivers interfacing HW/SW and good root cause analysis methodology.Strong programming skills in pythonExcellent data analysis and summarization skills for efficient reports and presentations.Prior experience in camera, imaging, optics, or color science relatedWays to stand out from the crowd:Familiarity with image quality metrics and automotive image sensor technologiesSome prior experience working with optical testing equipmentEnjoy building testing stations in laboratory or field environmentExperience working in a Unix environment
