Auckland, New Zealand Serato Limited Full time

Serato is one of the world leaders in audio software for professional DJs and musicians. World renowned artists such as Fatboy Slim, DJ Snake, Major Lazer and Mix Master Mike (of the Beastie Boys) love our products and perform with them on a regular basis.
Over our 25 year history, we have consistently innovated and pushed the boundaries of technology in the music industry and as a result, are a world leader in DJ and Music Production software.
Based in central Auckland, we are looking for a Senior Research Engineer who will be working on new audio technology that challenges the current state of the art. Ideally, this will leverage your skills in both machine learning and audio digital signal processing to work on new problems and solutions in the field.
To be successful in this role, you should be able to demonstrate:

5+ years experience as a developer and relevant tertiary qualifications including optionally research led PhD in Physics, Computer Science or related discipline
C++, MATLAB, Python and/or other relevant research focused languages
Significant experience in Machine Learning
Excellent communication skills
Ability to research complex new topics, devise prototypes and propose technical designs
Understanding of troubleshooting techniques across a broad range of problems/domains
Good design and analysis skills
Coding optimization techniques

It would be great if you also have one or more of these:

Solid theoretical background in digital signal processing principles and implementation of audio algorithms, time and frequency based audio processing algorithms
Good understanding of basic acoustic and audio principles
Experience in signal processing techniques such as digital filter design (IIR, FIIR), adaptive filtering
Experience in the development of time, filter, modulation and pitch-based software effects development
Experience in the development of software synthesizers
Knowledge in relevant tooling and infrastructure including build systems, version control, automation frameworks, static analysis tools, crash tools

At Serato, our culture is highly prized, so finding someone who will integrate well with the team and company, sharing our values of having fun whilst working hard and continually improving, is more important than ticking all the boxes. If you're experienced, love software and music, and want to work in a high performing team at a company with a great culture, this could be the role for you.
Given the current world situation, for truly exceptional candidates, we will consider candidates who would initially be remote but with a commitment to relocating to New Zealand when the opportunity opens up.
