About Hossein Mohtasham

I\'m a Software Engineer and System Architect, currently helping to architect the next generation Tensor SOCs for efficient on-device imaging and AI. Previously TL\'ed multiple projects in Pixel Camera.I\'ve worked as a software architect, technical lead, R&D engineer, individual SW contributor or a combination of those, depending on the project needs. Some of the recent highlights- TL for multi-camera features in Pixel Camera- SW architect for some of next gen Tensor ISP designs- One of the core architects of the camera ISP software stack for Qualcomm Snapdragon, shipped on millions of devices by multiple OEMs (e.g. Pixel, Galaxy S 9, 10.)(still shipping)- Designed and led the development of key camera driver\'s architectural elements and features- Led the development of the Presil infrastructure for the new generation of HW and SW- Worked with HW team and made HW architectural proposals that made the ISP more stable- GPU compute application and driver optimization- Stabilized and optimized Qualcomm\'s OpenCL driver (which made computer vision and image processing practical on mobile devices)- Optimized OEM GPU compute code to enable feature commercialization.Driver Software Development (GPU, Camera).GPU compute: OpenCL.GPU compute application and driver optimization.Camera ISP HW/SW architecture modeling and driver developmentMobile/embedded system development.Programming language design and compiler development.Program analysis/verification.Software process/project management.Object-Oriented analysis, design, and programming.C, C++, Visual C++(Win32, MFC, ATL, COM, DirectX).
