Are you ready to be a driving force in the future of hearing technology? In this role, you'll take charge of designing next-generation hearing aids, from Behind-the-Ear (BTE) to Custom In-the-Ear (ITE) models, ensuring they meet top standards for performance, quality, and cost-effectiveness. As a key contributor to the Electrical Engineering team, you'll collaborate across departments, taking on everything from technical project planning and risk assessment to creating best-in-class, innovative designs.

If you’re a creative, technically skilled professional with a passion for continuous improvement and teamwork, this is your chance to leave a lasting impact in the hearing aid industry!

At Starkey, we are in the business of connecting people and changing lives. As a world leader in the manufacturing and delivering of advanced hearing solutions, we go to work each day to ensure every person on the planet has the opportunity to hear their very best. Founded in 1967, Starkey is known for its innovative design, development and distribution of comprehensive digital hearing systems.

Headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, Starkey has more than 5,000 employees globally, operates 29+ facilities and does business in more than 100 markets worldwide. Here’s a video about the people behind Starkey’s groundbreaking innovation:

This position operates under minimal manager/senior engineering supervision, receives guidance on tasks, and works with cross-functional engineering teams, along with external customers and/or suppliers.

This position is responsible for concepting, prototyping, component selection, designing, verifying, and documenting hearing aid electroacoustic hardware (PCBAs) and other electroacoustic elements in Starkey products, including RIC, BTE, ITC, ITE, CIC, IIC, hearing protection devices, and accessories. Working closely with Acoustic, Electrical, and Signal Integrity engineers, this position is responsible for fulfilling product requirements, adhering to industry standards, implementing design guidelines, creating design specifications, and maintaining design processes/procedures.

Finally, this position is responsible for guiding design, research, and/or operation groups in problem-solving for product-related issues to ensure successful design transfer to production and sustained production.

• Create novel designs and integration of new platforms/transducers to meet product requirements
• Run simulation and rapid prototype evaluation of new concepts for early risk reduction
• Create decision analysis and documentation of component selection
• Support business initiatives throughout all design and release phases

• Create parameters and model design, verification, review, and release
• Execute electroacoustic product performance specification creation and release
• Troubleshoot issues throughout the design and release phases
• Support documentation and knowledge sharing of novel findings

• Decompose product-level electroacoustic requirement and verify at the subsystem and component level
• Perform formal product life cycle management (PLM) releases of electroacoustic designs to production and homologation reporting for governmental registration/contacts
• Enforce electroacoustic specifications and fabrication configurations (internal/external)
• Execute failure analysis of product design, testing, processes, and field issues
• Create design and verification processes, procedures, and improvement updates
• Enhance competence of available tools via self, internal, or external training
• Stay abreast of new standards, requirements, and contracts for homologation into new/existing products
• Support seeking and maturing hearing aid artifact reduction technologies/evaluation methods for implementation
