Work That Enhances Life, Not Competes With It
Even though they're deeply dedicated to their work, this team makes a point of investing time in personal passions — not in spite of their roles, but because they know variety fuels creativity. Whether it's mountain biking, fishing, or food tours with family, these moments outside the office help them return with fresh energy and new perspectives.
Take Jedong Lee, for example — a Principal Software Engineer who practices Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in his spare time to stay strong and centered. When talking about his team, he explains, "We provide comprehensive support throughout the amplifier development process, with the ultimate goal of delivering the highest quality audio experience when our products are installed in our customers' vehicles."
Innovation Starts with Culture
The Customer System Engineering Team is always at the forefront of cutting-edge technology and premium sound quality. They foster an environment where everyone can freely share their opinions to drive innovation. By embracing challenges and focusing on continuous growth, they've been able to truly listen to customer needs — consistently outperforming competitors in annual customer satisfaction surveys.
Each team member is a professional in their field, focused and immersed in their tasks. But when a challenge arises, everyone comes together to solve it. Jedong Lee explains, "One of the strengths of our team atmosphere is the warm, family-like environment and the cool and attentive style of our leader." He also emphasizes how they've mastered the art of balancing work with personal time, where boundaries are respected and people feel supported.
What Makes the Work Worth It
Their focus is on developing next-generation audio systems using the latest software and hardware technologies — like the recently launched Bang & Olufsen system, which has received great market praise. It's not just about innovation for its own sake — it's about delivering a listening experience that genuinely excites. Jedong further adds, "Our work also connects us with the latest in automotive tech, from amplifier development to navigation map updates for multiple markets to offering technical support in the field. This broad scope gives our work meaning and visibility — especially when we see positive market responses to the products we've shaped from the ground up." The Future Is Integration, Not Balance
This team proves that the future of work isn't about keeping your professional and personal lives in neat, separate boxes. It's about integration — bringing all your interests and energy into one place where they fuel each other. If you're looking for a team where innovation starts with real human connection, HARMAN might be the place for you.
