At Apple, extraordinary ideas have a way of quickly becoming extraordinary products, services and customer experiences. Sound is an essential and compelling facet of the customer experience. Apple has assembled an elite Acoustics team that enables our customers to experience music with delight, communicate with clarity, and enjoy elegant sound throughout our product line. In Apple Acoustics we work with the utmost attention to detail, directly impacting the design of products that millions of people around the world love!

Our Audio Technology team drives the design and integration of advanced audio features across Apple product lines. You'll often find us at the intersection of computational algorithms and physical acoustic systems. Our focus is active noise cancellation, adaptive EQ, spatial audio, and more. If this up your alley, we want to hear from you!

Within Audio Technology, our Noise Control group is passionate about developing robust control systems for acoustic environments -- primarily with our Air Pods line. In this role you will drive system design, modeling, and tuning of audio processing features in Apple products, specifically focusing on active noise cancellation. You will have an opportunity to work on development and analysis of both hardware and software components using a combination of acoustic and DSP skills.

As part of our team, you will also work on improving the audio systems architecture for future Apple products.

Digital signal processing (DSP), including adaptive filtering, active noise cancellation and optimization of performance of these algorithms in devices Speaker control and protection algorithms, including design, implementation and validation of real-time control systems for enhancing speaker performance Algorithm prototyping in simulation software such as MATLAB and real-time hardware platforms Acoustic prototyping including experimentation in anechoic chambers and audio/acoustic measurement tools Listening skills for diagnosing problems in product sound quality

Most of our engineers have advanced degrees in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or an equivalent field, but if you've followed a different path to expertise in Audio Engineering, we still want to hear from you. 5+ years relevant product development experience
