  • Enhance development processes and planning tools to improve team efficiency and product delivery.
  • Apply technical expertise to design, simulate, and validate mixer hardware systems, including both electrical and mechanical components.
  • Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to ensure seamless integration of hardware with firmware, software, and system-level requirements.
  • Participate in design reviews, prototype assessments, and troubleshooting activities to guarantee product performance and reliability.
  • Maintain comprehensive documentation and uphold compliance with internal standards and industry best practices.

What You Need to Be Successful

  • Bachelor's degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Audio Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  • 10+ years of experience designing hardware systems for professional audio products, with a particular focus on mixer technologies.
  • Deep understanding of mixer system architecture, encompassing analog and digital audio signal paths, communications busses, control interfaces, and integration with firmware and software.
  • Successful applicants will exhibit proficiency in hardware development tools, including schematic capture, PCB layout, simulation software, and test instrumentation.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, combined with a meticulous, data-driven approach, are essential.
  • Exceptional communication and collaboration skills are required for effective interaction with engineering, product management, manufacturing, and quality teams.

  • Experience collaborating within a global, matrixed organization to drive project success.
  • Experience using Atlassian Tools, including Confluence, Jira, and Bitbucket, to manage documentation and workflows efficiently.
  • Enthusiasm for teamwork, consistently recognizing the greater achievements made through collective effort.
