• Configure and troubleshoot audio routing, audio policies, ALSA interfaces, mixer controls and device configurations
• Integrate and debug Audio DSP and signal-processing functionality
• Investigate complex issues across Android Framework, HAL, Linux/ALSA, DSP and hardware layers
• Work directly with target hardware and test benches for implementation, debugging and verification
• Support audio functionality across different hardware and product variants
• Perform audio testing, signal analysis, validation and root-cause investigation using logs, traces, audio dumps and measurement results
• Contribute to platform bring-up, integration, release and validation activities
• Participate in architecture discussions, implementation and code reviews
• Collaborate with audio developers, embedded engineers, architects, hardware teams and customer stakeholders

What we're looking for

• Strong professional experience with C and C++ in embedded or platform-level development

• Experience with automotive audio, infotainment or comparable embedded audio platforms
• Experience developing and debugging software directly on target hardware or test benches
• Strong troubleshooting and root-cause analysis skills across software and hardware layers
• Experience with audio testing, measurement, signal analysis and validation
• Experience with Git and modern software development practices
• Ability to take technical ownership and work independently in a complex integration environment
• Good communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively across international software, hardware and customer teams
• Good spoken and written English
• Availability for occasional time-critical integration or release activities across international teams
• Ability and willingness to travel to the US when required by the project
