We are seeking a hands-on Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Engineer to join our Audio Technology Licensing Engineering Team in China.

This role is ideal for an experienced engineer who combines strong DSP fundamentals with a passion for solving real-world audio challenges across a wide variety of platforms, products, and customer use cases. You will contribute to the development, optimization, and deployment of licensable audio technologies that must perform reliably across diverse hardware and software environments.

Success in this role requires a balance of technical depth, problem-solving ability, customer focus, and cross-functional collaboration. You will work closely with DSP experts, software and platform architects, product teams, and external customers to deliver robust, scalable audio solutions that meet demanding quality, performance, and commercialization requirements.

DSP Engineer Role

DSP engineers in the Audio Technology Licensing group work in cross-disciplinary, highly collaborative teams to develop and deploy signal processing algorithms that improve audio experiences for our technology partners and their customers.

You will contribute to a broad set of technologies including audio signal processing, speech and voice processing, noise reduction, and microphone array systems , and gain experience adapting algorithms to different hardware and software environments. This role provides strong opportunities for technical growth while maintaining clear ownership of deliverables.

Key Responsibilities

Port and delivery Bose DSP algorithms for licensable audio technologies.
Engage with China-based customers throughout opportunity development, product integration, and program execution.
Translate customer requirements, audio quality expectations, and market-specific needs into technical recommendations and engineering solutions.
Support technical evaluations, prototyping activities, product tuning, and issue resolution with customers and partners.
Represent engineering perspectives in customer-facing discussions while balancing product, business, and program objectives.
Adapt and optimize algorithms for diverse hardware architectures, DSP platforms, operating systems, and system constraints.
Evaluate third-party technologies, algorithms, and software components, contributing to technical assessments and make-versus-buy decisions.
Collaborate with global engineering teams to ensure regional customer needs are effectively represented and addressed.
Support the successful deployment of Bose audio technologies into commercial partner products.
