Your field of work
You will
participate in a national funded project related to hearing aid technology. In
particular, you will be concerned with the further development of a software
platform for hearing aid algorithms ("Master Hearing Aid") and the
development of novel hearing aid algorithms. Another focus can be the
co-development of auditory models for perceptual speech and audio quality
estimation. The project work requires intensive communication and collaboration
across team members and external project partners. Active participation in the
planning and acquisition of further projects will be part of your job profile.
Your profile
You have a master
or higher university degree in computer science, electrical or communications engineering,
physics or a related discipline. For the project work, excellent expertise and
experience in the development and implementation of digital audio signal
processing algorithms as well as in C++ programming are required. Knowledge in
MATLAB programming and psychoacoustics/hearing research is desired. The
ideal candidate should be fluent in either German or English. Good English
language skills are required. Basic German language skills or the willingness
to acquire these are desired.
We offer
a versatile field
of work in a modern and forward-looking company. Salary will be related to TV-L
