As part of our Innovation Engineering Team, you’ll have the unique opportunity to challenge industry norms while working on critical human-interface solutions with real-world applications.

Are you ready to shape the future of PWS and gaming peripherals by creating next-generation user experiences supported by innovative haptic feedback?

Your Contribution:

Be Yourself. Be Open. Stay Hungry and Humble. Collaborate. Challenge. Decide and just Do. Share our passion for Equality and the Environment. These are the behaviors and values you’ll need for success at Logitech.

In this role you will:

Architect and Develop the Haptic Peripheral Ecosystem

Design and implement a scalable haptic ecosystem that enhances Logitech’s productivity and gaming solutions alike.

Ensure ecosystem compatibility with Logitech’s HID devices and software, as well as emerging technologies used in modern PWS tools (e.g., haptic-enabled input devices, etc.) and gaming systems.

Drive Technology Innovation

Adopt advanced haptic feedback technologies to redefine user interactions for both professionals and gamers. Examples could include better tactile responses in keyboards for productivity-focused users or immersive force feedback in gaming peripherals.

Balance varying user needs across PWS (e.g., ergonomics, precision, accessibility) and gaming (e.g., responsiveness, sensory engagement).

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Liaise closely with hardware, firmware, software, and industrial design teams to ensure innovative yet practical product solutions.

Actively explore partnerships within the productivity (e.g., video conferencing, task-oriented tools) and gaming industries to integrate third-party technologies and expand ecosystem capabilities.

Represent Logitech in haptic standardization and forum (internal and external).

Lead partnership to integrate haptics in the full ecosystem (from HW to SW), including creative software and video game development companies.

Prototype, Validate, and Iterate

Translate high-level concepts into working prototypes for both PWS and gaming peripherals.

Define and validate system-level requirements to ensure solutions meet functional, aesthetic, and ergonomic standards for the two use cases.

Lead efforts to test the systems' reliability, connectivity, and performance under the diverse conditions of a professional and gaming environment.

Deliver User-Centric Innovations

Utilize user research to fine-tune the haptic ecosystem, ensuring that professional users benefit from increased precision and productivity while gamers gain heightened immersion.

Constantly explore innovative ways to enhance tactile experiences in tasks ranging from content creation to gaming immersion.
