Audio Programmer

As an Audio Programmer in our Manchester Studio you would be advancing the audio technology for a proprietary game engine powering a huge universe, covering the scale the sound of the movement of a player's clothing all the way to the roar of a capital ship.

You will also develop the audio technology that allows sound designers to bring a world to life, and refine the workflow that gives access to it.

All of this will be achieved using the latest PC hardware and APIs to produce a fast and scale-able suite of audio technology to power some of the most ambitious games ever developed.
