Original posting

AudioFocus | Oakland, CA | Hardware Design Co-Founder | Full-time AudioFocus (YC S19) makes hearing aids that work in noisy places like bars. We use a combination of an in-house built auralization framework and deep learning models to accomplish this. Our prototype runs on the iPhone and we're looking for someone to built a hardware prototype and take it all the way to mass manufactured scale. You have experience in: - Low Power Architecture Design - Wireless Audio Transmission (NFMi, 900Mhz, 2.4Ghz) - Validation & Mass Manufacturing and are a lifelong learner, have interest in ML processors, and have worked at Apple AirPods, a hearing aid company, Bose, Doppler Labs, or something similar. Founded by me (UC Berkeley, BS-EECS, 2011; UC Berkeley, PhD-ML, 2019). Contact: shariq@audiofocus.io
