We’re big enough to give you all the resources you need, and small enough so you can make a real difference and earn recognition for your work. We offer a collegial culture, challenging projects, and excellent compensation and benefits.
This position is in the Engineering organization of Dolby Laboratories and located in Beijing, China. The main focus of this position is to implement Dolby’s audio technologies, including creating the reference code, porting to the embedded platforms such as ARM cores or TI DSPs. The position requires a deep knowledge in signal processing algorithms, fixed-pointed algorithms and optimization technical including the use of assembly language, as well as an excellent understanding of DSP architectures.
We are looking for a highly motivated individual for whom working with different tool chains under various operating systems in hardware close environments is fun and not a challenge.
Responsibilities:
Essential Job Functions:
- Implement Dolby’s audio signal processing algorithms for both floating-point and fixed-point platforms.
- Port and optimize audio signal processing algorithms to embedded fixed-point devices in a timely manner based on assigned portions of projects and existing architectures.
- Write code, following best practices in embedded SW-engineering, leading to well documented, reliable and easy to maintain SW-components.
- Validate and maintain correct behavior of SW-components via automated unit tests.
- Serve as a team member with responsibility for maintaining embedded sub-components.
