Department Overview

Our R&D Center in Vietnam is a strategic AI Hub. We are building a unified, high-performance software foundation that powers Intelligent Edge Devices—from smart cameras to dedicated AI box processors—bringing server-class intelligence to the edge.

Job Description:

• Pipeline Engine Architecture: Architect a modular, high-throughput Video & AI Pipeline Engine. Design the framework for dynamic graph construction (DAG) where AI models, logic nodes, and image processing blocks can be assembled and executed efficiently.

• Heterogeneous Resource Orchestration: Design the scheduling logic to balance workloads across CPU, GPU, DSP, and NPU. manage critical system bottlenecks such as PCIe Bandwidth, Memory Bandwidth, and Thermal constraints to prevent system stalls.

• AI Optimization Strategy: Define the architectural support for Model Quantization (INT8/FP16) and Network Pruning. Ensure the engine can natively handle optimized model formats, managing the trade-off between inference speed, memory footprint, and accuracy.

• Memory & Data Flow Design: Architect zero-copy data transport mechanisms (DMA, Shared Memory, Ring Buffers) to pass high-resolution video frames and tensor data between pipeline stages without CPU intervention.

• Scalability & Abstraction: Create a hardware-agnostic Abstraction Layer (HAL) that allows the engine to scale from low-power cameras to high-performance AI processors with minimal code changes.

#"

Basic Requirements:

• System Architecture: Mastery of Modern C++ (14/17/20) and architectural patterns for high-concurrency, real-time systems. Deep understanding of Producer-Consumer models, Lock-free queues, and multi-threaded synchronization.

• AI Model Optimization: Strong knowledge of techniques to reduce model complexity: Quantization (PTQ/QAT), Weight Pruning, and Knowledge Distillation. Experience integrating these optimized models into C++ runtimes (e.g., TensorRT, SNPE/QNN, OpenVINO).

• Hardware Intimacy: Deep understanding of SoC architectures (Qualcomm, Ambarella, NVIDIA). Ability to analyze how Cache Coherency, Bus Arbitration, and Memory Controllers impact AI performance.

• Profiling & Analysis: Expert ability to use system profilers (e.g., Perf, eBPF, Nsight Systems) to visualize the "Critical Path" of the pipeline and optimize instruction-level performance.

• Pipeline Frameworks: Experience designing or heavily customizing media pipelines (similar to GStreamer, Media Pipe, or Deep Stream).

• Education: Bachelor’s Degree or higher in Embedded AI, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related technical fields.

Experience:

10+ years of industry experience in Embedded Software Architecture or High-Performance Computing.

• Proven track record of designing complex software engines for Video Processing, Computer Vision, or Autonomous Systems.

• Experience acting as a System Architect, making critical decisions on resource allocation, memory management, and hardware selection.
