Senior Signal Processing Engineer

Let’s talk about the team

Our Data Science Team is advancing Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning (AI/ML) initiatives that drive our business in an “AI First” approach. Resmed's commitment to improving the lives of people with sleep apnea and other sleep conditions through our extensive physiological and sleep data offers unparalleled opportunities for innovation.

On any given day, the team could be working on developing advanced signal processing pipelines for physiological data (e.g., airflow, SpO₂, respiratory effort, speech, heart-rate), extracting clinically meaningful features from billion+ nights of sleep data, improving signal quality and artifact detection, enabling robust AI/ML models, or supporting real-time patient monitoring and therapeutic interventions.

Let’s talk about the role

As a Senior Signal Processing Engineer, you will design and develop advanced signal processing algorithms for physiological time-series data across key business areas at Resmed. Your work will directly impact the patient journey—from early disease detection to therapy optimization—by enabling accurate and robust extraction of features and biomarkers from complex, noisy signals in sleep-disordered breathing and other chronic conditions.

You will build and optimize signal processing pipelines for tasks such as filtering, denoising, segmentation, event detection (e.g., apneas/hypopneas), and feature extraction, ensuring reliability in real-world environments. You will collaborate closely with AI/ML team members to enable high-quality inputs to predictive models, and contribute to hybrid systems that combine signal processing with machine learning and deep learning approaches.

Acting as both an individual contributor and subject matter expert, you will translate clinical and physiological requirements into scalable signal processing solutions, while working with cross-functional teams to improve patient outcomes and device performance.
