Description For Software Engineer

Join Sony Semiconductor Solutions, the world-leading image sensor company, as a Software Engineer in their Advanced Visual Sensing (AVS) group based in Zurich, Switzerland. This role offers an exciting opportunity to shape how image sensors enable new applications through innovative designs. You'll be working on implementing and developing unique algorithms for novel vision systems, with applications in AR/VR headsets, mobile devices, and automation.

The position is within a former spin-off of the University of Zurich and ETH Zurich, now part of Sony's R&D center. You'll be joining a small, flexible, and motivated team that maintains a startup culture of curiosity and high engagement. The team develops novel computer vision algorithms, vision sensors, and sensing systems, including event-based cameras and CMOS cameras.

As a Software Engineer, you'll be responsible for developing high-level algorithms and optimizing AI-powered image processing algorithms on mobile embedded hardware. You'll work with cutting-edge sensors, build profiling tools, and coordinate with engineering teams across Japan, Europe, and North America.

The role requires strong technical skills in C/C++ and Python, along with experience in computer vision algorithms and deployment frameworks. You'll be working in Schlieren, at the doorstep of Zurich, consistently voted among the top three best cities to live. The office is modern, well-connected, and features enjoyable break rooms and a terrace for social team events.

Sony values diversity and maintains an equal opportunity environment, making this an excellent opportunity for someone looking to make an impact in the field of computer vision and sensor technology while working with a global leader in image sensors.
