  • Support prototype and production builds, both on-site at the factory and remotely
  • Work with manufacturing partners to validate and refine assembly procedures
  • Conduct feasibility studies on new technologies and continuously monitor market trends
  • Use tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, SPICE, or FEA to simulate and predict acoustic system behavior

What You Bring:

  • 3+ years of hands-on product development experience in acoustics, ideally in the consumer or professional audio sector
  • A technical degree or equivalent practical experience
  • Solid understanding of acoustics, analog electronics, and audio tuning processes
  • Hands-on experience with headphone acoustic structures, including enclosure and port design
  • Proficiency in using acoustic test equipment (e.g., GRAS, B&K, Audio Precision, Listen Inc.)
  • Ability to define requirements for acoustic components such as drivers, microphones, and meshes
  • Strong communication skills in English
  • Bonus: Experience with noise cancelling, digital signal processing, and acoustic simulation tools

What We Offer:

  • A dynamic and collaborative working environment with flat hierarchies
  • The opportunity to shape world-class audio products from the ground up
  • Support for personal and professional development through training and growth programs
  • Flexible working models and attractive employment conditions
  • 30 days of vacation, vacation bonus, discounted Germany ticket, company pension scheme, and more
