• Create and curate sound effects
• Collaborate with game designers and other creatives to produce voiceover scripts (another plus: voice acting experience)
• Edit/sweeten voiceover and other found audio
• Interface with outside sound vendors to provide assets in pipeline for all SKUs Zynga-Bengaluru has brought / will bring online
• Interface with tech artists & programmers to see soundtracks implemented according to spec.
• Take hands-on direction from SKU Exec-Producer/Leads (plus whichever Product Managers or producers they designate).
• Be responsible for and “own” the details of delivering all sound and soundtrack work for the studio. (The Slots/Match Audio Director will continue to provide high level direction, management support & QA)
