Company Overview Ambiq  is on a mission to enable intelligence everywhere — powering the AI edge revolution with the world's lowest-power semiconductor solutions. Built on our proprietary sub- and near-threshold technology, our chips deliver multi-fold improvements in energy efficiency without costly process scaling. Since 2010, we've shipped over 300 million units to customers building smarter wearables, medical devices, IoT products, and AI-powered edge applications. Our cross-functional teams span design, research, development, production, marketing, sales, and operations across Austin, Hsinchu, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Singapore. We move fast, tackle hard problems, and create space for people to grow through complex, meaningful work that shapes the future of technology. We're looking for self-motivated, creative problem-solvers who are eager to push technological limits and make a real impact in energy efficiency. At Ambiq, we live by five values:  Innovate. Collaborate. Focus. Learn. Achieve. If that's you, join us — the intelligence everywhere revolution starts here.   Scope   As a Staff Embedded Software Engineer, Imaging at Ambiq, you will lead the architecture, development, integration, and validation of the imaging subsystem software for Ambiq SoCs. You will be responsible for evaluating, porting, and optimizing firmware and device drivers for image processing, video, and camera interfaces within the AmbiqSuite SDK across silicon and emulation platforms.   You will also evaluate and integrate customer-facing tools for image sensor bring-up, calibration, and characterization, enabling customers to successfully deploy camera-based solutions on Ambiq devices.     Working within Ambiq's global MCU software organization, you will collaborate closely with the SoC architecture, silicon design, and verification engineering teams throughout the product lifecycle—from pre-silicon FPGA validation through post-silicon bring-up, optimization, and customer enablement.     The ideal candidate is a seasoned hands-on technical contributor who learns quickly, thrives in a lab environment, enjoys solving challenging hardware/software integration problems, and continuously seeks to improve both products and engineering processes.   Responsibilities   Lead the design, implementation, and maintenance of the embedded imaging subsystem software for ARM Cortex-M–based platforms.   Evaluate, port, optimize, or develop firmware and device drivers for image processing, video, and camera interface hardware.   Design and implement firmware interfaces for image acquisition, processing, and streaming on resource-constrained embedded systems.   Integrate camera sensors using MIPI CSI-2 interfaces and support end-to-end camera bring-up, validation, and performance optimization.   Enable image sensor integration by evaluating and supporting calibration, characterization, and image quality tuning tools.   Lead imaging subsystem software activities during pre-silicon FPGA verification and post-silicon bring-up, validation, debugging, and performance tuning.   Optimize imaging and video processing pipelines for real-time performance, memory utilization, and power efficiency.   Support design verifica
