About the Project

We’re developing a standalone, battery-powered outdoor device featuring an ESP32 and camera module (controlled via ESP32 or direct UART/SPI commands).

The goal: build a stable, resilient cellular connection to our server and ensure reliable image capture and transfer — all under strict low-power constraints.

What You'll Do

• Develop firmware for the ESP32 microcontroller to manage system modules.
• Implement camera control and capture pipelines, ensuring robust image handling.
• Build a battery-aware upload pipeline with efficient sleep/wake policies.
• Manage storage durability (wear leveling, quotas) and system watchdogs.
• Integrate structured logging and field diagnostics for remote monitoring.
• Collaborate closely with the hardware and FPGA teams to refine system performance.

Must-Have Experience

• Strong proficiency in C for microcontrollers (ESP32 / ESP-IDF / STM32).
• Hands-on experience with RTOS environments.
• Deep understanding of MIPI camera modules (sensor init, capture pipeline, trigger/stream via ESP or direct commands, basic image buffering/storage).
• Proficiency with UART/SPI, GPIO, interrupts, and watchdogs.
• Experience integrating FPGA with microcontrollers and peripheral systems.

Nice to have

• Python or Shell scripting for build/test automation and log parsing.
• Experience with Quectel or SIMCom cellular modems.
• Familiarity with MQTT/HTTP(S) protocols, telemetry, remote diagnostics, and A/B OTA updates.
• Basic image compression/formatting and fail-safe upload queue implementation skills.

Why Join Us

You’ll work on a cutting-edge embedded vision system that blends low-power design, connectivity, and real-time imaging.
