Senior Software Engineer

About Us:

At Frenel Imaging, we’re redefining what’s possible in thermal imaging. As a cutting-edge startup, we develop state-of-the-art polarimetric thermal cameras and push the boundaries of image processing and computer vision. Our work combines deep tech innovation with real-world impact — from algorithm design to hardware integration.

We're a team of curious minds and passionate builders. We believe in a collaborative, hands-on culture where everyone’s voice matters and where solving complex problems together is part of the daily routine. If you're excited about building technology that breaks new ground and working alongside talented, humble people, you’ll feel right at home here.

We’re looking for an experienced and hands-on Senior Software Engineer to join our core development team. This is a unique opportunity to take full ownership of key components in an advanced imaging pipeline — from hardware integration through real-time processing, all the way to deployment.

You’ll work closely with algorithm engineers, hardware teams, and system architects to build high-performance solutions at the intersection of image processing, embedded systems, and machine learning.

Ø Design and develop end-to-end imaging pipelines on embedded GPU platforms.

Ø Optimize performance and integration of algorithms from research to production.

Ø Work with cutting-edge thermal and polarimetric camera systems.

Ø Lead technical decisions, architecture discussions, and mentor team members.

Ø Collaborate across teams to seamlessly meld backend solutions with frontend applications, enhancing functionality and user experience.

Ø Uphold and advance code quality, ensuring scalability and performance across multiple platforms.

Ø Innovate and architect robust backend structures to support the growing demands of our technology.

Ø Bachelor’s degree in computer science or equivalent degree.

Ø 5+ years of hands-on software development experience.

Ø Strong proficiency in Python

Ø Experience with NVIDIA Jetson platforms or other GPU-accelerated systems

Ø Solid understanding of image processing and computer vision

Ø Familiarity with machine learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, OpenCV)

Ø Experience working alongside algorithm engineers or data scientists

Ø Comfortable working in a startup environment and owning projects end-to-end

Ø Experience in low-level optimization (e.g., CUDA, SIMD).

Ø Background in thermal imaging or polarimetry.

Ø Familiarity with ROS or real-time embedded systems

Ø Deep knowledge of FFmpeg, video streaming, and encoding pipelines.
