Embedded Software Engineer

Who we are and what we do

Audinate leads the world in networked media with our "Dante" technology used extensively in professional audio / video installations including live events, broadcast, entertainment venues and communications systems. 

Dante replaces all audio and video connections with a computer network, effortlessly sending video or hundreds of channels of audio over slender Ethernet cables with perfect digital fidelity. Adopted by hundreds of manufacturers in thousands of products, Dante is the de facto standard for modern AV connectivity.

You’ll find us in the largest companies and institutions like the Sydney Opera House, NFL Media Headquarters, Microsoft, major universities and even a 900-year old cathedral featured in Harry Potter.
