ABOUT THE CO-OP PROGRAM
Bose Corporation is seeking students to participate in our Co-op Program who share our belief that sound is power. During the six-month co-op, students will have the chance to apply classroom learning in a hands-on work environment. Co-op participants will network across the business to gain diverse perspectives within Bose Corporation. Additionally, co-ops will connect with other students and colleagues, building valuable professional relationships for the future.
Spring Co-op: Candidates must be available to work full-time (40 hours per week) in a hybrid, in-office format from January through July, 2027. No relocation assistance is available.
THE ROLE
At Bose, we use machine learning across a diverse set of problems ranging from speech enhancement (e.g., SpeechClarity) to audio perception. As an Embedded Audio ML Engineer Co-op at Bose, you will help deploy and optimize our next generation deep learning algorithms for resource-constrained devices.
Responsibilities
- Build embedded software prototypes to demonstrate new ML-powered audio features on our wearables
- Design, implement, deploy and optimize deep learning models, data structure and algorithms on resource-constrained devices
- Research, design and implement novel methods for efficient deep learning (e.g., quantization, pruning, NAS, knowledge distillation) with a focus on audio-related problems
- Train and evaluate deep learning models to enable new experiences on our headphones, earbuds, soundbars, portable speakers and other consumer audio devices
- Evaluate neural network hardware accelerators for low-power wearable devices, including working with various vendors’ custom toolchains, software and hardware and informing leadership teams about tradeoffs
Minimum Qualifications
- Currently pursuing a M.S. or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Machine Learning, or a related field
- Strong proficiency in C/C++ for embedded systems
- Proficiency in Python for model conversion, evaluation, or tooling workflows
- Strong experience implementing deep neural networks with PyTorch, TensorFlow, or similar frameworks
- Proven cross-group and cross-culture collaboration skills
- Creative problem-solver with demonstrated ability to work independently
Preferred Qualifications
- Prior internship or work experience as a Software/ML engineer
- Experience deploying ML models on edge or resource-constrained devices (MCU/DSP/NPU)
- Solid background in audio deep learning and digital signal processing

Get Access To All JobsMachine Learning Research CPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Machine Learning Research internship qualify for CPT?
Yes, if the role is integral to your curriculum and listed or approvable under your degree program. Your DSO makes the final call. Roles involving model research, experimental ML design, or applied AI development typically satisfy the integral requirement for students in computer science, data science, or related graduate programs.
Can I do full-time CPT for a Machine Learning Research position without losing STEM OPT?
You can do full-time CPT, but if you accumulate 12 or more months of full-time CPT, you lose your OPT eligibility entirely, including the STEM OPT extension. Part-time CPT, regardless of duration, doesn't affect OPT. Plan your CPT hours carefully if post-graduation STEM OPT matters to your visa strategy.
How do I find Machine Learning Research employers who understand CPT?
Search Migrate Mate for machine learning and AI research roles filtered by employers with LCA filing history. Employers already familiar with visa-sponsored roles tend to process CPT offer letters faster and are less likely to withdraw offers when your DSO asks for supplemental documentation about the position's academic relevance.
What should my CPT offer letter include for a research role?
Your offer letter should specify the research focus, the degree fields that are directly applicable, start and end dates, hours per week, and the name of your supervising researcher or PI. Many DSOs at research-intensive universities also require a description of how the work connects to your current coursework or thesis project before they'll authorize CPT.
Does CPT for Machine Learning Research count toward H-1B specialty occupation?
CPT work authorization itself doesn't directly affect H-1B visa eligibility, but the experience you gain does matter. For a future H-1B petition in machine learning, your employer will need to show the role requires at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field. Strong research documentation from your CPT period supports that specialty occupation argument later.
