Experiences at Sanewave

Being able to work in a contract engineering company for a wide number of well-known Professional Audio clients (unnamed as per NDA) on cutting-edge products that change the way people make music.

I love coffee and I likely am the greatest consumer of coffee at SaneWave. It, I believe, is one of life's great pleasures.

SaneWave is in a antique building, the site of the original Snohomish jail (and the first flush toilet in the city). We have the basement level, which snakes under the sidewalks with their purple-tinged glass tiles, ending at sealed gateways that once were used for bootlegging. We work together in a couple of large rooms, surrounded by numerous computers and devices-in-progress. We have a music server that is often playing - we all share an enjoyment of music....

SaneWave is a small company, so most go to lunch together...

Engineers wear casual but nice clothing, typically.

(1) A high degree of personal responsibility and autonomy given in working on projects.
(2) A wide variety of challenging projects - always something new to learn quickly.
(3) Great, personable people who all share a love of music.

I came to SaneWave through Mathew Chasan, with whom I had the opportunity to work and go to school.
