About the position
We are seeking a researcher to develop new separation algorithms for hearing devices utilizing recent advanced in hardware and methodology. The new researcher should have strong experience and proven record of accomplishment within the field of machine learning
and speech separation combined with passion for applied research and innovation.
Eriksholm develops technologies to compensate for hearing problems to the best possible level, even under adverse and challenging listening conditions. Particularly the proverbial “Cocktail Party” challenge of competing voices, but also spatial hearing and
“hidden hearing loss” are in our focus. Advanced digital signal processing and novel technologies like deep neural network are tools for our research. Eriksholm utilizes new technology, access to next generation hearing device platforms, and tight connections
to people who use hearing devices to quantify real and significant problems for people with hearing problems and subsequently develop the optimal compensation.
Eriksholm’s audiological research is focusing on three Megatrend areas: Advanced Algorithms, Cognitive Hearing Science and eHealth. Eriksholm’s research has a strong international track record in applied science. We closely collaborate with leading universities
around the world for finding the best solutions for the hearing healthcare of the future. Our efforts aim at implementing clinical audiology solutions supported by electronic processes and communication. We focus on the needs of people with hearing impairment
and their clinicians. Our research does not only generate publications and patents, but also transforms the clinical practice and the operations of large health care providers.
Your background
We are seeking candidates with a PhD degree in machine learning, audiology, deep neural networks, speech separation, biomedical engineering, or a related discipline, who have an excellent research and publication record. A strong interest in interdisciplinary
and application-oriented work, familiarity with experimental work, as well as good English language skills are required. Apart from initiating cutting-edge research leading to journal publications, the new researcher is expected to be a part of the research
group at Eriksholm and Oticon.
