About the Role
We're rebuilding computing from the ground up: the hardware, the software, and the interactions between them. This is a playground where nothing is siloed, and everyone gets to dive into a bit of everything. Every role here helps shape something no one has built before.
What we are looking for
- We are looking for the best talent, regardless of if you have a college degree or not (students welcome)
- Willingness to work between San Francisco and Shenzhen
- Deep experience in electroacoustics: speaker driver selection and characterization, enclosure tuning, microphone array design, and system-level acoustic architecture
- Experience tuning and shipping audio products: EQ/DSP tuning, loudness and distortion targets, echo cancellation and noise suppression performance, and subjective listening evaluation
- Ability to work directly with manufacturing partners on acoustic component sourcing, factory audio test setup, and production quality limits
- Bonus: DSP algorithm development, psychoacoustics background, or experience with voice interfaces and far-field mic performance
