- Documenting and presenting data and analysis to various departments (engineering, sales, marketing, design) and externally to clients
- Continuously advancing individual level of FEA theory and COMSOL knowledge through training, exploratory learning, and reading to become leading acoustic transducer simulation engineer
- Expanding and maintaining material parameter database through working with sub-component vendors, advanced material measurement equipment, and available third-party measurements
- Completing acoustic measurements using Klippel R&D system to validate simulation results
- Collaborating with customers, manufacturers, and licensees to drive and assist transducer co-development, design for manufacturing, acoustic performance optimization, and other related tasks
Qualifications Required
- Passion for improving how people experience sound
- Passion for creating cutting edge and innovative technologies
- Holistic understanding of loudspeakers and Thiele-Small parameters
- Basic experience with COMSOL Multiphysics
- Some experience with CAD and 3D-design
- A basic understanding of Finite Element Analysis theory
- Outstanding ability to think critically, problem solve, and work independently
- Strong communication, documentation, and presentation skills
- Must be qualified to work in the U.S. and have no restrictions for international travel
