Acoustic Technical Manager

What you'll do:

As an Acoustic Technical Manager based in Hsinchu, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of audio products within a collaborative global team. Your daily responsibilities will involve leading complex acoustic hardware projects from conception through implementation, working alongside experts in various disciplines to deliver innovative solutions. You will be instrumental in optimising system performance through rigorous characterisation methods and close cooperation with algorithm developers. By mentoring other engineers and resolving manufacturing issues in partnership with internal and external stakeholders, you will contribute significantly to the team's success. Your ability to communicate effectively across departments will ensure that every product meets the highest standards of quality and user satisfaction.

• Lead the development and implementation of acoustic hardware projects for products including speakers, headsets, and voice communication devices by guiding cross-functional teams through each stage of the process.
• Work collaboratively with transducer developers to optimise performance parameters and ensure high-quality audio output across all devices.
• Partner with mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, firmware, and digital signal processing teams to achieve seamless integration of audio components into new products.
• Characterise audio systems using both objective measurements and subjective listening tests to guarantee an outstanding end user experience.
• Collaborate with algorithm developers to refine audio and voice performance through precise tuning and optimisation techniques.
• Engage with engineering teams, in-house operations staff, OEMs/ODMs/CMs to resolve manufacturing challenges efficiently while maintaining product quality standards.
• Mentor junior engineers by sharing your expertise in acoustics and supporting their professional development within the team.
• Contribute actively to cross-functional meetings by providing insights on acoustic design considerations and helping shape project direction.
• Support validation processes by overseeing testing protocols for new products to ensure compliance with industry standards.
• Participate in certification activities by preparing documentation and coordinating with relevant authorities as required.

What you bring:

To excel as an Acoustic Technical Manager, your background should reflect substantial experience in developing audio hardware for consumer electronics or related industries. Your technical acumen must encompass both theoretical knowledge—such as acoustical modelling—and practical skills like hands-on testing using industry-standard equipment. Familiarity with digital signal processing is crucial for refining sound quality across diverse applications. In addition to these core competencies, your interpersonal abilities will enable you to collaborate harmoniously within multidisciplinary teams while mentoring less experienced colleagues. A commitment to continuous learning and adaptability will further distinguish you as an invaluable member of the organisation’s Acoustics team.

• A minimum of eight years’ experience in audio hardware development is essential for this role, demonstrating your deep understanding of industry practices.
• Comprehensive knowledge of acoustic component characteristics such as microphones and speakers enables you to make informed decisions throughout the development process.
• Proven experience with acoustical modelling techniques including linear/nonlinear lump element models or finite element method (FEM) models allows you to predict system behaviour accurately.
• Hands-on expertise in acoustical testing using tools like Audio Precision, SoundCheck, or ACQUA ensures reliable evaluation of product performance.
• Demonstrated proficiency in audio DSP tuning empowers you to enhance user experiences through precise adjustments.
• Solid understanding of audio processing pipelines including gain control, equalisation (EQ), and dynamic range compression (DRC) supports effective system integration.
