What is a remote technical sound designer?

A Remote Technical Sound Designer is a professional who creates, implements, and optimizes audio elements for digital media—such as video games, films, or apps—while working from a remote location. They combine creative sound design with technical skills, often using specialized audio software and middleware to ensure that sounds integrate seamlessly within interactive environments. Their work includes crafting sound effects, mixing audio, and collaborating with development teams online to achieve the desired auditory experience. Remote Technical Sound Designers need strong communication skills and proficiency with tools like Wwise, FMOD, and various digital audio workstations.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote technical sound designer?

A Remote Technical Sound Designer typically needs expertise in audio engineering, sound design principles, and a solid understanding of interactive media or game audio, often supported by a relevant degree or portfolio. Familiarity with industry-standard digital audio workstations (DAWs) like Pro Tools or Reaper, middleware such as Wwise or FMOD, and version control systems is crucial. Strong collaboration, problem-solving, and communication skills help bridge the gap between creative vision and technical implementation in a remote team environment. These abilities ensure immersive audio experiences, seamless integration, and efficient teamwork, which are vital in interactive and distributed work settings.

How does a remote technical sound designer typically collaborate with game developers and artists during the production process?

As a Remote Technical Sound Designer, close collaboration with game developers and artists is essential, even from a distance. You’ll often participate in virtual meetings, share feedback through project management tools, and use version control systems to integrate audio assets into the game's build. Regular communication ensures your sound designs align with gameplay mechanics and artistic vision, while troubleshooting audio implementation alongside programmers helps resolve technical issues efficiently. This cross-disciplinary teamwork is vital for delivering an immersive audio experience.

Job description

What we are looking for:
We are seeking a Tech Designer to join our team. Technical Designers are responsible for implementing and maintaining the technical framework and guidelines for gameplay systems across the game, working as a bridge between technical and creative departments to aid with robust and reusable content. The technical design department provides building blocks needed by all other departments within the studio, to allow them to effectively create advanced gameplay.
Requirements
What we will do together:
  • Collaborate with all the different disciplines to determine the best methods to realize the shared vision for the game.
  • Champion and uphold the creation of technical workflows and production pipelines.
  • Act as a technical expert on the team and ensure the team has the highest quality tools, documents, and best practices.
  • Obtain in-depth knowledge of the engine, its capabilities, and auxiliary development tools.
  • Uphold good system architecture across the department, including reuse and optimization.
  • Be an advocate for the technical design team in interactions with all departments.

What you will bring:
  • Ability to work cross-discipline and provide constructive and easy-to-understand feedback to any team member.
  • Excellent technical scripting skills, ideally in visual and text-based scripting.
  • Self-motivated towards solving creative problems and technical challenges.
  • Ability to analyze and deconstruct the work of others.
  • Good knowledge of game and level design principles.
  • Clear and concise communication.
  • Ability to work autonomously.
  • It would be great if you also had:
  • Good knowledge of programming languages such as C++
  • Understanding of optimization and technical limitations.
  • Knowledge of network replication and limitations.

Benefits
Interested... a bit about Escape Velocity:
Escape Velocity is a team of passionate, talented developers working at a studio that offers excellent benefits, on what we believe is a once-in-a-career project with a committed publisher. But that doesn't necessarily make us unique. What does make us special? We value the time, energy, and talent of our players and our colleagues. We want every hour spent developing and playing our games to be an incredibly rewarding and worthwhile use of your time. To that end, we are 'Fully Remote' and support team members nearly anywhere in the world. We prioritize honesty, even when that means sharing bad news. We strive to give everyone autonomy so they can determine how best to work and play, and we care more about what you bring to the game and studio than how many hours you're clocking. We're dedicated to building a culture of play, which not only makes us better game makers, but also strengthens the bonds between us all. We believe in constant improvement across all areas - from the game itself to our production design - and are constantly re-evaluating how we spend our time to ensure that we're not wasting yours and we're all always working on the most important things.
A few benefits you can expect from us:
  • A generous PTO allowance
  • Summer and Winter holidays studio closure (separate to PTO allowance)
  • Private Medical & Dental Healthcare
  • Private Mental Health scheme
  • A generous annual Health & Wellbeing allowance
  • Discretionary Studio Bonus
  • Top range tech for your home set up
  • Other benefits based on your region
