Control Systems Engineer - Noise Cancellation

Bose is a research company dedicated to developing breakthrough technologies and quality products that enrich people's lives. We created the market for noise cancelling headphonesandset a high bar for performance.Wealsoleadinnovationinautomotive noise cancellation, providing active solutions to take cost and weight out of vehicles.

Bose is looking for aseniorhands-on control systems engineer to implement and refine low-latency, real-time algorithms for noise cancellationfor both consumer electronics and automotive applications. The candidate will work within multi-disciplinary teams to optimize industry-leading noise reduction control systems and DSP algorithms to createnext-generation experiences for our customers.

Consumer electronics and automotive applications presentvery differentchallenges and levels of cancellation performance. Our group supportsadiverserange of applications, maturingactive solutions to address automotive cabin noise (powertrain/drivetrain/road noise/wind noise)as well ashigh performanceANC in headphones and earbuds.
