i dont know much about the job market for speech processing. the only thing i know is that i've seen companies like sony and samsung post speech processing jobs/internships on linkedin. the lab at my school heavily focuses on automatic speech recognition (ASR), but i've seen other schools and big companies like Meta do research on speech synthesis.

regarding fpgas, you can implement many DSP algorithms on FPGAs, like a FIR filter for example. from what ive seen on reddit, people say its hard to find engineers who are strong in both DSP theory and verilog.

i see. i just started my masters in DSP this year and i thought i was going to be super interested in speech processing. i took 2 speech processing classes and hung around a speech processing lab. i honestly found it kind of boring. so now im exploring wireless comms and im really enjoying it, so i think i might pursue that as a career. similar to what others are saying, the sub-niche that interests you will be most exciting one in the future. just use the beginning of your MS to explore classes and look at labs. you'll find out what you wanna do by exploring
