| Description: |
Location: Mountain View, CA
Company information:
This young fabless semiconductor company is based on the research of one of the company co-founders, who has done innovative work in digital signal processing and psychoacoustics with applications to, for example, improving cell phone speech signals, automotive sound, and speakerphones. The idea is to reverse engineer the human auditory pathway to
enable intelligent signal processing. The company is targeting both embedded software and chips as part of their product offerings. I have heard their sound examples and found them excellent. The company is rapidly growing, hiring recently some of the people whom I admire most in our field. The company offers a comprehensive benefits package.
Job title: Algorithm Developer
Description:
A self-motivated algorithm developer, the successful candidate will be responsible for analyzing and co-developing audio analysis and classification algorithms for speech enhancement with senior team members.
The qualified candidate will support senior team members in developing, modifying, and implementing algorithms on different platforms (Matlab, C floating point, fixed-point and DSP), for analysis and classification of audio signal streams and
computational auditory scene analysis.
