Embedded FW Engineer - Qualcomm SoC

The company is the audio platform that enables anyone to build smart audio products people love.

We were founded in Munich in 2013 and invented the true wireless category with The Dash, a full year before AirPods. Since then, we've invested more than $90 million in software and AI, and moved from building our own hardware to building the platform that makes everyone else's hardware smarter.

Today, the company brings world-leading services onto audio devices: music platforms, AI providers and productivity tools, all controlled through natural interaction rather than screens and taps. Our platform already supports more than 30 million devices. Partners include Bose, Skullcandy and Tozo, alongside services such as Fireflies, TuneIn, Endel, SoundCloud and many more.

As AI moves off the screen and into the ear, audio is becoming one of the most personal ways people interact with technology. We're building the platform that makes that possible, and the work you do here ships to millions of people.
