About the role

Senior embedded systems engineer responsible for designing and implementing audio signal-processing subsystems for Fauna robotics, including core DSP algorithms, embedded real-time platforms, and cross-functional leadership.

Responsibilities

  • Architect the audio processing pipeline at the embedded system level.
  • Serve as the subject-matter expert on audio and signal-processing algorithms, providing technical guidance across electrical, mechanical, ID, and software teams
  • Integrate and validate DSP algorithms on embedded, real-time platforms
  • Research and specify electroacoustic components (microphones, speakers)
  • Adapt and tune algorithms for varying hardware, software, and system constraints
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, systems, software, and product management
  • Manage and direct external audio and acoustics consultants, defining SOWs and integrating third-party acoustic design inputs into a program
  • Partner with vendors on test and production activities

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
  • 5+ years of programming with at least one software programming language experience
  • 5+ years of leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
  • Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team
  • 7+ years developing DSP algorithms for embedded or real-time systems
  • Proficiency in C/C++ and Python or MATLAB for signal-processing algorithm development
  • Experience with microphone and speaker selection and characterization
  • Deep signal-processing fundamentals: time/frequency duality, discrete-time signal processing, fixed- and floating-point implementation
  • Hands-on prototype builds, hardware bring-up of audio subsystems, or design iteration cycles
  • Practical knowledge of ML architecture design, data analysis, and training/evaluation methodologies for audio systems
  • Experience with board bring-up, profiling, optimization, simulation, and manufacturing test fixture design, production test plans, yield analysis, and test-to-spec validation
  • Experience debugging embedded systems and working with audio lab equipment (oscilloscopes, power analyzers, motor test benches)
  • Proven ability to work effectively across cross-functional teams at all organizational levels
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Audio/Acoustics, or a related field
