Associate Consumer System Applications Engineer

Graduate System Applications Engineer

Join a cutting‑edge team at Analog Devices, where you’ll help develop adaptive, personalized, and contextually aware consumer audio technologies. As a Graduate System Applications Engineer, you will work on system integration across embedded consumer platforms, addressing application‑level challenges in the low‑power consumer audio market.

Systems engineering teams at Analog Devices anticipate, uncover, and solve complex customer challenges ahead of product development by applying robust systems engineering methodologies and leveraging Analog Devices’ extensive portfolio of sensing technologies in collaboration with external partners.

• Customer engagements throughout the product development cycle—from concept to launch—debugging issues and resolving problems in our application and/or FPGA labs.
• Collaborate across multi‑disciplinary teams (Marketing, Design, Software, Field Applications) and with external partners to deliver complete system solutions.
• Deep understanding of market use cases to solve application‑level challenges in hearable devices such as TWS earbuds and over‑the‑head headsets.
• Translate customer needs into solutions, thinking expansively and using a wide lens to capture both immediate and future requirements.
• Support verification and validation efforts, including pre‑silicon (FPGA systems) and post‑silicon testing, to guarantee compliance with requirements.
• Develop evaluation kits, system designs, and customer‑facing collateral such as application notes and demos.
• Create compelling demos for customer visits and tradeshow events.
• Provide technical communication and support during customer engagements to ensure success.

• Have or working towards a Bachelor’s in Electronic/Electrical Engineering, Embedded Firmware/Software Engineering, or a related field.
• Experience with ARM/DSP/FPGA/BT/Arduino platforms is a plus.

• Signal processing.
• Experience with DSP cores and ARM cores is an advantage, especially if audio focused.
• Interest in mixed‑signal electronics, from both a hardware & software perspective.
• Testing and debugging techniques, with proficiency in tools such as oscilloscopes and waveform generators.
• Knowledge of software languages including C/C# and Python.

• Excellent communication skills (verbal and written) and strong team player.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and thrive in a multifaceted, cross‑functional team with a start‑up culture.
• Enthusiastic about consumer technology, especially in the audio market segment.
• Ability to travel up to 10% globally (U.S., Europe, Asia).

• PCB development flow (schematic, layout, manufacturing).
• Familiarity with software development tools and flows (e.g., Git, JIRA, Jenkins).
• Exposure to machine learning frameworks (Tensor Flow, Caffe, PyTorch).
• Mixed‑signal audio chains, specifically analog audio architecture (e.g., ADC, PGA, Class D amplifiers) and performance metrics (e.g., SNR, THD).
• Battery management and power topologies for efficient low‑power hearables.
• Bluetooth and wireless protocols, including Wi‑Fi and UWB.
