Imaging Engineer

Imaging Engineer

As an Imaging Engineer, you will contribute to the development and integration of imaging solutions for endoscope products. You will work with camera sensors, lenses, illumination and image-quality testing, supported by senior colleagues and cross-functional specialists in the medical device domain. The role combines practical laboratory work, technical problem-solving, supplier collaboration and structured documentation.

Your responsibilities

• Contribute to the development of imaging technology, including sensor, optics and illumination in technology projects to build solid imaging solution roadmap.
• Participate in endoscope product-development projects, focusing on imaging component integration and imaging system performance, which include:
• Participate in user-related event and identify user need for imaging requirements.
• Support the selection and evaluation of sensors, lenses, illumination components and related imaging solutions.
• Assist with integration of imaging solutions into the product in collaboration with mechanical, electronics, quality and NPI engineers.
• Perform hands-on camera testing, image-quality evaluation, troubleshooting and documentation.
• Participate in user testing in clinical settings and provide imaging-related technical support.
• Prepare reports and technical documentation in line with medical-device development processes.

What we are looking for

• A relevant degree in Optoelectronics, Electronics, Physics, Computer vision or a related engineering field.
• 2+ years of relevant professional experience. Strong graduates with practical project, internship or laboratory experience are also encouraged to apply.
• Basic understanding of camera systems and components such as image sensors, lenses, illumination and electronic interfaces.
• Familiarity with key imaging and optical performance concepts, for example SNR, dynamic range, noise, MTF, depth of field, field of view and distortion.
• Interest in hands-on testing, measurement, data analysis and systematic problem-solving.
• Clear communication skills and the ability to collaborate across engineering disciplines.
• A proactive approach to work and strong communication skills.
• A curious, structured and user-focused mindset with motivation to learn.

Nice to have

• Exposure to ISP functions, camera calibration or imaging-pipeline tuning.
• Basic knowledge of mechanics, electronics or embedded camera systems.
• Practical use of laboratory equipment or image-quality measurement methods.
• Experience with Python programming and image/video analysis

What you will gain

• Hands-on experience across the full imaging chain, from sensor and optics to illumination and image quality.
• Mentoring and technical guidance from experienced camera and product-development engineers.
• Opportunities to work with top-notch suppliers, prototypes, product teams and clinical users.
• A strong foundation for growing into an imaging specialist and imaging system-level engineering.
