Description

You will concept, design, and build next-generation research hardware systems for social VR and AR.

Responsibilities

• Lead electrical development for audio hardware within cross-functional teams.
• Architect, design, and debug audio chain circuits including codecs, embedded DSPs, headphone amps, speaker amps, and microphones.
• Own audio system design, covering render, capture, amplifier, power delivery, and the audio chain.
• Develop POC demos to establish performance and secure stakeholder buy-in.
• Collaborate with Research Scientists and Engineers to establish performance metrics for technologies ranging from low to high maturity.

Required Skills

• 5+ years of experience in audio, wearable, or consumer electronics device development.
• Proficiency in designing and debugging both Analog and Digital circuits.
• Experience driving electrical design from schematic capture and PCB layout through to assembly.
• Expertise in circuit simulations and modeling using SPICE simulation (filter design, frequency analysis, transient analysis).
• Experience with Audio Precision.
• Proficiency with OrCAD, Cadence, or similar schematic capture and PCB layout tools.
• B.S. in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Acoustics, or equivalent experience.

Preferred Skills

• Integration and analysis of sensors such as IMUs, accelerometers, and microphones.
• Circuit design experience with Microcontrollers and programmable logic/FPGAs.
• Experience bringing up and debugging high-speed digital systems and integrating RF technologies like WiFi, BT, or GPS.
