About us

At Audatic, we build systems to render speech from any sound scenario clear and free of noise using state-of-the-art deep learning technology. Our mission is to empower millions of people with hearing loss to enjoy interactions in demanding social settings like bars or restaurants.

As a part of the Sonova Group, our team developed the speech enhancement neural network for the Phonak Infinio Sphere - the world’s first hearing aid to run a deep neural network (DNN) for real-time speech enhancement on a custom-built, low-power, embedded neural accelerator. Since then, numerous clinical studies and extensive market feedback have confirmed the significant, life-changing benefits of this breakthrough technology.

Audatic is a small, supportive team that values collaboration and openness. We pair startup agility with Sonova’s scale, audiological expertise, and world-class resources. Everyone here has the chance to shape how we work, contribute their ideas and have a direct impact on the products we deliver - creating technology that can transform lives.

More about the role

You will be part of Audatic’s development team. As such, potential responsibilities could include:

Working very closely with our deep learning engineers and data scientists to design, maintain, and extend our system for running deep learning experiments. This includes packages, tools and services written in Python.
Owning the infrastructure that the experimentation framework is running on. This means dealing with databases, virtual machines, cloud compute resources and scheduling systems.
Collaborating with embedded software engineers on graph-manipulation tools to analyze and optimize our trained neural networks.
Proactively identifying improvements to make our infrastructure more robust, efficient and user-friendly. Part of this is making the neural network training process fast and hardware accurate.
Developing tools to provide better insights and control over machine learning & deep learning experiments. This includes our custom-built experiment control and visualization website.
Leveraging our CI/CD system or other forms of automation to minimize repetitive tasks for the team.

You will be taking full ownership over parts of our codebase and infrastructure. At Audatic, you are encouraged to innovate and propose new ideas for continuous improvements.

Tech stack

Our main programming language is Python.
We host our infrastructure on Azure.
Our tech stack is built around many popular (open source) tools, including but not limited to: Ubuntu, Docker and other container runtimes, Slurm, HashiCorp Vault, MongoDB, Postgres, Terraform, Packer, Kubernetes, Prometheus, Grafana, Tensorflow, CUDA, React, FastAPI.
Our CI/CD pipelines run on GitHub Actions with self-hosted runners.
