Responsibilities

Execute optical and objective IQ test plans for endoscopic camera modules and systems under controlled, repeatable lab conditions.
Measure and track key optical performance metrics, such as sharpness/MTF, distortion, uniformity, etc
Run objective image quality measurements and scorecards, such as noise/SNR, dynamic range, color accuracy (ΔE), white-balance stability, etc
Set up, calibrate, and maintain lab equipment and fixtures (targets/charts, lighting and illumination rigs, integrating spheres/diffusers as applicable, positioning stages, and camera mounts) to ensure repeatability measurement.
Capture and organize datasets (raw/processed video) with complete metadata (illumination, working distance, settings, firmware/build version, unit ID) to enable tuning iteration and regression comparison.
Support building an automated test setup for optical and objective IQ validation to enable scalable regression testing.
Perform image quality regression testing on released software/firmware builds by re-running standardized objective test suites, comparing results to baselines, and flagging deltas for triage before and after releases.
Support debugging by reproducing issues, narrowing the conditions that trigger them, and working with engineers/suppliers to verify fixes through re-test.
Follow documented procedures for lab safety, calibration schedules, and data integrity; contribute to continuous improvement of test methods and checklists.
