Why Join Us?
To put it simply: You’ll work with great people, making top-tier, high-quality interactive experiences for the highly acclaimed new title, “Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra”. We have assembled the best external development, publishing and IP partners in the world. Our internal team will remain small relative to other AAA developers so we can all maintain the highest levels of familiarity, trust and effectiveness. You’ll be surrounded by industry veterans, currently with an average of 20 years’ experience, in a climate of mutual trust, maturity, candor and playful collaboration. We believe that life’s too short to work with difficult people, regardless of talent, so exceptional character and strong principles are requirements for every role. Your days will be focused on solving creative and technical problems, not navigating corporate politics.
Currently for this role, we can hire remote candidates with legal residence in Arizona, California, Florida, Michigan, New York, North Carolina, Texas, Washington and Canada.
What You’ll Do:
We are searching for an Audio Lead to join our core team developing a high-quality AAA single-player story- driven action-adventure game built using the Unreal Engine. As Audio Lead, you will define the creative vision, technical direction, and production standards for all audio in the project. You will guide, mentor, and support the sound design teams, ensuring our audio deepens immersion, strengthens gameplay clarity, and enhances emotional impact. We only hire talented, collaborative people with strong communication skills who are laser focused on achieving excellent results.
