• Troubleshooting and resolving software issues throughout development
• Participating in peer reviews to maintain a high bar for code quality

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field
• 3+ years of image processing such as building streaming imaging pipelines or similar high throughput systems
• Strong C/C++ development experience, including multi threaded systems
• Experience with network and serial communication technologies
  
  Ability to debug across hardware and software boundaries
