Renkus-Heinz has recruited three new team members to its engineering department. Hai Le joins the team as Embedded Software Engineer, Robert Newman takes on the role of Loudspeaker Engineering Technician and Peng Yin joins as Senior Software Engineer.
Hai Le brings more than 20 years of experience working on embedded software development. Since completing a master’s degree in computer science at California State University, Fullerton, he has been involved in building successful products for a range of industries, including computer storage, networking, medical devices, flight software and traffic detection.
‘I have worked on video products in the past, but they did not include audio,’ Le says. ‘I am very excited to have the opportunity to learn about sound, whilst contributing to the exceptional performance of Renkus-Heinz loudspeakers.’
Transferring from a Technical Head role at an audio engineering company, Newman boasts 15 years’ experience in professional audio, with a strong focus on transducer design, manufacturing and testing. He enjoys finding innovative solutions to problems to help projects move forward. His background in hands-on craftsmanship, engineering theory and technical management ensures he will hit the ground running in his new role as Loudspeaker Engineering Technician.
‘It’s a great feeling to step into a role where I can combine everything I’ve learned over the years,’ he says. ‘As Renkus-Heinz continues to strengthen its leading position in the industry, it’s wonderful to have the opportunity to contribute to such an incredible and innovative team.’
Peng Yin joins the Renkus-Heinz team as Senior Software Engineer having completed two master’s degrees in Software Engineering and Civil Engineering at the University of California, Irvine. Yin has held various software engineering roles since 2016, leading teams to success with his broad knowledge of programming languages and experience in testing software. Yin looks forward to bringing his enthusiasm for audio to his new position.
‘Joining Renkus-Heinz is more than a career move, it’s a chance to blend my passion for software engineering with the art of sound. I’m excited to contribute to groundbreaking audio technologies that shape how music and live experiences are heard around the world,’ he says. ‘With my background in real-time systems, signal processing, and .NET development, I look forward to building tools that push the boundaries of acoustic innovation and bring sonic excellence to life.’
Hai Le, Robert Newman and Peng Yin will work with Engineering Manager Chad DeFranco and the wider engineering team to support Renkus-Heinz’s goals.
‘In a post-Covid landscape, we are building a more diversified and highly skilled team that will lead us into the future,’ DeFranco says. ‘Together with our existing engineering team, our new recruits will be instrumental in enhancing our Rhaon software and loudspeaker platforms, giving us a firm footing to achieve our roadmap of technological innovations.’
‘It’s important for Renkus-Heinz to keep investing in core research and development teams,’ adds Chief Technology Officer, Ralph Heinz. ‘We love finding talented individuals who are passionate about what we do here, so we can keep delivering on our commitment to innovation and technological excellence.’
