We are looking for a graduate e= ngineering/science student=C2=A0to help develop cutting edge speechenhancem= ent technologies for hearables to address this new market. Our focus ison m= achine learning based approaches to traditional signal processing problemsw= ith an emphasis on low latency noise suppression.=C2=A0 This position is for aninternship, thus we are primarily interested in cand= idates nearing the end oftheir PhD/MS programs. Successful applicants have = a high probability ofobtaining full-time offers after the internship. =C2=A0 Theideal candidate will have the following qualities: =C2=A0 Requiredexperience - Deep expertisein ML/DL approaches for speech enhancement (ideally, noise = suppression) - Experiencebuilding and training models with commercial software (e.g., Py= Torch orTensorflow) - Broad knowledgeof traditional digital signal processing (filtering, FIR/I= IR, sample rateconsiderations, etc.) Desiredexperience - Experienceimplementing these algorithms with latency as a top priority (a= nd techniquesrequired to meet these latency requirements) - Experienceimplementing these networks in H/W and characterizing =E2=80=98= real-world=E2=80=99 performance - Experience withhearing compensation and knowledge of hearing aid fitting = algorithms/techniquesis highly desirable If interested, please contact Jacob Bean (jbean@xxxxxxxx)with a cop= y of your resume.
