Are you passionate about C programming? And you know the ropes in algorithmic implementation and larger modular software frameworks?
If so, we have the right position for you!
What you will do
- Your primary task consists of porting our audio signal processing algorithms from MATLAB or Python into a product-ready C or C++ framework for different hardware platforms.
- Since our algorithms usually run on consumer hardware, you should have very good skills in optimizing algorithms with respect to memory consumption and computational complexity.
- Our products also run on different hardware devices, so you need to have profound knowledge in software development for different platforms.
- A good understanding of basic signal processing concepts is also requird, because you will transform the proof-of-concept MATLAB or Python algorithm into an efficient C/C++ library and verify the algorithmic functionality.
- Another important task is to assure sufficient software quality in terms of implementation quality and algorithmic functionality. Therefore, therefore it would be favorable if you have distinct experience with automatic software testing and software quality assurance, as well as basic experience with audio processing applications.
- Last but not least, you will maintain our modular software framework, and, if required, make necessary structural changes to support our future algorithms. Since the functional complexity of our software framework is high, you should be experienced in handling large software frameworks and in modular programming.
What you bring to the table
- University degree in Computer Science, Electronics, Mathematics, Physics, or similar
- Very good C/C++ programming skills
- Good MATLAB programming skills
- Experience in efficient implementation of software algorithms
- Know-how in modular programming and handling complex software frameworks
- Practice in software quality assurance, e.g., automatic testing
- Basic audio signal processing understanding
