Job Responsibilities: Direct their own studies on this workstream, setting study direction to keep the program advancing toward NTI
Carry on already-planned studies, continuing execution rather than redefining scope
Design and run listening/human-subject studies: protocols, stimulus design, psychoacoustic measurement
Prototype, tune, and evaluate hearing-assistive signal-processing algorithms and fitting approaches
Analyze data and communicate findings to research, engineering, and product partners; document methods for continuity
Must have skills Hearing science & psychoacoustics domain expertise
Hands-on hearing-aid / hearing-assistive signal processing and fitting approaches
Designing, running, and analyzing human-subject listening studies (onsite, Redmond)
Light python knowledge
Nice to have Speech-in-noise measurement and speech intelligibility enhancement
Wearable / head-worn audio device experience; microphone arrays, beamforming, or spatial audio
Publication track record in hearing science, audiology, or audio signal processing; prototyping in MATLAB/Python
Education/Experience: 8 years in hearing science / psychoacoustics and hearing-assistive signal processing, including independent research leadership (IC5 equivalent). PhD research experience counts toward this.
PhD in Hearing Science, Audiology, Auditory Neuroscience, Acoustics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field — or equivalent practical research experience.
