The Senior Acoustic Engineer will lead the design, integration, and validation of acoustic and audio subsystems for robots at Fauna Robotics, an Amazon company. This role focuses on developing microphone arrays, speaker systems, and noise management strategies in a fast-paced R&D environment. The engineer will work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure the acoustic performance of robotic platforms. The team aims to create robots that are capable, safe, and delightful for everyday human interaction.

• 7+ years of experience in acoustic design, validation, and integration for hardware products or electromechanical systems.
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (Acoustics specialization), Audio Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
• Experience with at least one programming language such as Matlab, R, Python, or Stata.
• Proficiency in acoustic measurement tools such as SoundCheck, Audio Precision, or equivalent platforms.
• Experience with acoustic design in robotics, automotive, aerospace, or other electromechanical platforms with significant self-generated noise.

• Architect and own the acoustic subsystem design for robotic platforms, including microphone arrays and speaker modules.
• Serve as the subject-matter expert on acoustics and audio signal processing, providing technical guidance across various engineering teams.
• Research, specify, and characterize electroacoustic components for integration into robotic form factors.
• Develop and validate acoustic measurement methodologies and quality assurance processes for prototype production.
• Design and execute acoustic simulations to guide enclosure design and noise mitigation strategies.

• Employees at Amazon are often offered comprehensive health benefits—including multiple medical plan options (no pre-existing condition exclusions, 100% covered in-network preventive care), dental and vision plans, a 24/7 medical advice line from day one, expert second-opinion services, and broad mental-health support with several free counseling sessions (including pediatric). Financial wellness typically includes a 401(k) with company match (up to 2%), Restricted Stock Units (equity), FSAs, an emergency savings program, product and partner discounts, and even college-savings and home-purchase programs.
