Cloud Imperium Games are looking for a Music Designer to join our audio team to work from our flag ship studio in Manchester, UK. As part of the team, you will focus on liaising with external composers, music implementation and provide some music composition for our Star Citizen and Squadron 42 projects.
As a Music Designer, you are required to be proficient in music theory and composition across a wide variety of music genres and production styles. This will be paralleled with a strong and proven technical audio implementation skillset.
You will need proficient knowledge of the Wwise middleware and a good level of industry experience under your belt. The successful applicant will be required to adapt and adjust to different development tools, as we’re constantly developing new audio tech. Our project is extremely complex in nature so you will be expected to contribute to the progress of systems and tools that allow nuanced, articulate music to bring life to our games via efficient workflow.
Experience in working on MMO, FPS and Flight/Vehicle titles will prove useful, and a love of science fiction always helps! Please apply with a demo-reel/portfolio.
Founded in 2012, Cloud Imperium Games creates cutting-edge videogames that defy expectations. We’re currently developing Star Citizen, a record-breaking multiplayer online space sim, and Squadron 42, a cinematic single-player adventure set in the same universe. Join us as we break boundaries and make videogame history.
