Job Title: Camera Software Developer (Linux C++ / Python, Motion Control)
Location: Phoenix, AZ (Hybrid)
Employment Type: Full‑Time Permanent

• Develop, maintain, and optimize Linux-based C++ camera software for aero imaging systems.
• Build and refine video streaming pipelines using Python and GStreamer, with a focus on H.265 (HEVC) rather than H.264.
• Support motion‑control components involved in camera operation and system positioning.
• Work through existing codebases that require cleanup, re‑organization, branching, and stability improvements.
• Perform troubleshooting and performance tuning across camera drivers, imaging pipelines, and real‑time streaming components.
• Contribute to light embedded work when needed (but less than a dedicated firmware developer).
• Collaborate with cross‑functional engineering teams to ensure smooth integration across hardware, software, and platform components.

• Proficiency in Python, including building or modifying GStreamer pipelines.
• Familiarity with H.265 (HEVC) video processing, encoding, and streaming.
• Understanding of motion‑control concepts and their relationship to imaging systems.
• Ability to debug complex, performance‑sensitive imaging and streaming workflows.
• Experience working in or around embedded environments (not full firmware‑level, but hardware‑aware).
• Experience with camera sensors, SDKs, or hardware‑level video systems.
• Educational background in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering, or equivalent hands‑on experience.

• Experience in the following industries is beneficial but not required:
  Aerospace, Automotive, Defense.
