Help Shape the Future of Miniaturized Imaging Systems

Are you passionate about pushing the boundaries of imaging performance, camera miniaturization, and system‑level architecture? This is your opportunity to join an innovative and fast‑growing optical technology company and play a central role in defining next‑generation camera systems.

As our new Camera Architect, you will design advanced camera architectures and imaging systems that integrate NILT’s nanoscale optical technologies into demanding product footprints. You will work end‑to‑end—from concept and modelling to prototyping and system optimization—ensuring industry‑leading image quality and performance. The role offers significant opportunity for technical leadership, cross‑functional collaboration, and impact across multiple product lines.

You will join us at our headquarters in Kongens Lyngby, Denmark, working closely with talented colleagues in Denmark, Sweden, and Switzerland, as well as top‑tier partners and customers around the world

Be part of an ambitious company where we win together. Team spirit and mutual success are key components in our everyday work culture.

Tasks and responsibilities

Architect end‑to‑end imaging systems

You will design camera architectures that include sensor selection, lens and module integration, ISP analysis, and overall system‑level optimization.

Lead image quality optimization

You will drive improvements in color accuracy, dynamic range, SNR, noise reduction, autofocus, latency, and power/thermal performance to ensure outstanding image quality.

Bridge hardware, software, and metrology

You will act as a key liaison between disciplines to ensure all design choices align with product requirements, sensor characteristics, and footprint constraints.

Collaborate across the ecosystem

You will work closely with customers, suppliers, module integrators, manufacturers, and internal product teams to ensure robust and manufacturable solutions.

Skills, experiences and qualifications we are looking for

• 7+ years of experience in camera hardware or system architecture.
• MSc or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Optics, Applied Physics, or related fields.
• Deep understanding of optics, image sensors, ISP pipelines, and image quality metrics.
• Proficiency in MATLAB, Python, or embedded C/C++ for modelling and simulation.
• Strong experience working across hardware, software, and metrology.
• Demonstrated ability to lead complex technical initiatives across multidisciplinary teams.
• Experience with consumer‑grade camera module manufacturing.
• Expertise in system bring‑up, troubleshooting, and root cause analysis.
• Hardware/software co‑design experience.
• Strong analytical mindset and ability to make decisions with incomplete data.
