CLICK TO APPLY

We have a current opening for a Technical Leader, Algorithm Development Group in the Media Processing Business Unit within Emerging Technologies Business Group (ETBG). We design and develop video processing platforms to implement Cisco's video collaboration and medianet initiatives. These platforms use advanced visual, audio, streaming, and interactive technologies to realize the ultimate vision of any source to any display and are some of the more recent examples of how Cisco is changing the way we work, live, play, and learn.

Responsibilities
- Architecture, design and development of Wideband and Narrow-band audio compression and decompression algorithms, audio quality enhancement algorithms, audio mixing, noise removal, echo-cancellation algorithms, VAD and other audio processing modules
- Analysis of processing power for algorithmic blocks (MCPS) and memory bandwidth when running on a multi-core DSPs and high number of channel counts
- Analysis and enhancement of different algorithm processing blocks and optimization of logic on multi-core DSPs and VLIW instruction sets.
- Development of algorithm integration framework and integration of algorithms into a multi-DSP environment with large scale channel processing capabilities.
- Development of unit test framework and providing unit test results
- Analyzing audio quality using different quality tools and matrix and providing quality results to the integration team

Experience:
- 8-10 years of experience in the industry developing audio algorithms on DSPs or programmable chips
- Very strong background in Wideband and Narrow band audio compression and decompression algorithms using standards such AAC, AC-3, G.7x.
- Strong background in optimization of different algorithmic blocks on DSPs for high channel count/density.
- Experience in developing unit test applications testing and verifying algorithms as well as audio algorithm integration framework integrating algorithms in a system.
- Fundamentals of C/C++ has to be very clear and must be very strong programmer. Must have experience in analysis and characterization tools using MATLAB for algorithm development and testing. FPGA development experience is a great plus.
- Experience with video and audio quality test and measurement tools is required
- Must have been involved in a complete product development lifecycle, released successful product in the market which has been extensively used by customers
- Excellent communications skills, written and verbal is essential for this position
