Job Requirements / Description

We're passionate about creating the finest sound experiences in the world. One of the keys to great experiences is great software. Great software is as important at Sonos as our award winning hardware. Great software takes hard work, solid processes, and good tools. It takes many iterations of experimentation, feedback, and adjustment. This iterative loop requires software pipelines that quickly deliver high-quality applications to our testers, partners, and customers.
