Embedded Software Engineer

At Prizm Optics, we believe innovation begins with seeing the world differently.

Our patented Prizmatics lens technology enables cameras to capture wider angles, richer detail, and deeper insights across visible, infrared, and thermal imaging.

As we expand, we're looking for engineers who want to work at the frontier of imaging, solving meaningful challenges at the intersection of optics and AI. You'll be part of a focused, hands-on team designing next-generation vision systems for industries including automotive, healthcare, defence, and advanced manufacturing.

Note: This position isonly open to candidates with existing rights to work in Singapore.
