Job description

This is a remote position.

Audio DSP Engineer

Music Technology / Audio Software

Permanent, Full Time

USA

Newly created role for an Audio Software Developer to join a pedal and effects company, as they expand their team and increase their product line on a next-generation DSP platform.

Working closely with a small, specialised R&D team of music lovers, you'll use your skills in C/C++, DSP and embedded development to help develop products enjoyed by musicians all over the world. From concept and prototyping through to production-ready firmware, this is a hands-on, varied role in a collaborative team.

This is an ideal role for -

> A DSP Engineer who already has some commercial experience and would like to join a smaller team where you can have real influence on the end product

> An Embedded Software Engineer who is working in a different industry but is passionate about music and understands audio processing

> An Audio Software Developer who has shipped their own HW or SW products and would like to work as part of a team

What you'll be doing:

Collaborating with Founders and Product Designers on audio algorithm development
Developing audio DSP algorithms for embedded platforms (effects, synthesis, audio processing)
Contributing to platform architecture and toolchain development for a new DSP platform
Writing production-quality embedded C/C++ code
Working with other Developers and Engineers on product design decisions, balancing technical constraints with creative goals
Testing, debugging, and optimising code for real-time performance on resource-constrained hardware

Requirements

2+ years of experience writing DSP code for embedded systems
Strong C/C++ skills in resource-constrained environments
Solid understanding of DSP fundamentals: filtering, FFT, basic synthesis and audio processing concepts
Comfortable working with real-time constraints and debugging timing-sensitive code
Ability to work independently and drive projects forward with limited oversight
