Research Engineer

About the role

As a Research Engineer at OmniBuds, you will work hands-on with our ear-worn sensing platform, helping design experiments, collect high-quality physiological data, analyze signals, and build research prototypes. This role is ideal for a recent graduate or early-career engineer interested in wearable sensing, physiological signals, and data-driven experimentation.

What you’ll do

• Design and run physiological sensing experiments and data-collection sessions.
• Collect multimodal PPG, acoustic, IMU, temperature, and reference data.
• Develop Python tools for data collection, synchronisation, visualisation, and analysis.
• Analyse signal quality, physiological patterns, variability, and artefacts.
• Prepare and quality-check datasets for algorithm development.
• Build research prototypes and simple signal-processing/ML pipelines.
• Work closely with our research, hardware, firmware, and clinical teams.

What we expect

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or Data Science.
• Good Python and data-analysis skills.
• Hands-on, curious, and comfortable with experimentation and wearable sensing.
• Ideal candidates have existing authorization to work in the United States.
