• Identify technical audio requirements to the Engineering team and assure they’re met
• Integrate sound design into the development process, creating a collaborative relationship that fosters quality and a healthy work environment
• Maintain the audio budget and partner with the Production team to align audio planning with the rest of the project

What You’ll Bring

• 8+ years in audio production at a senior level on multiple AAA games
• Deep understanding of game audio technology
• Musical knowledge as a producer, composer, and/or musician
• Solid foundation in audio equipment setup and usage
• Ability to manage budgets, contracts, schedules, and production for both internal and external audio teams and vendors
