• Troubleshoot noise, interference, latency, sync, connectivity, acoustics, and other audio issues before and during production. 

• Edit, clean, mix, and master recorded audio using equalization, compression, noise reduction, loudness standards, and other post-production techniques. 

• Support camera, lighting, teleprompter, streaming, and recording systems as part of a collaborative video production crew. 

• Coordinate with producers, editors, presenters, and business stakeholders to identify technical needs, build production plans, and conduct audio checks and rehearsals. 

• Support executive recordings, interviews, webinars, podcasts, live or hybrid events, and other high-visibility productions with a calm, service-oriented approach. 

• Maintain microphones, mixers, wireless systems, recorders, cabling, accessories, and related production infrastructure and equipment, including inventory and readiness checks. 

• Perform technical quality-control reviews for clarity, synchronization, loudness, channel configuration, accessibility, and delivery specifications. 

• Create and improve audio standards, signal-flow documentation, studio procedures, troubleshooting guides, and training resources for the team and self-service studio users. 

Requirements 

• Bachelor’s degree in audio engineering, video production, broadcast, film, communications, media, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience. 

• Two or more years of hands-on experience in audio engineering, video production, studio operations, broadcast, live events, or post-production. 

• Strong understanding of audio signal flow, microphone types and placement, mixers, wireless systems, digital audio, acoustics, gain structure, and monitoring. 

• Proficiency with professional audio and video editing software, multitrack workflows, synchronization, noise reduction, mixing, mastering, and common media formats. 

• Working knowledge of cameras, lighting, teleprompters, streaming platforms, conferencing tools, and studio production workflows. 

• Ability to diagnose technical issues quickly and communicate clear solutions during time-sensitive productions. 

• Strong organization, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple assignments, deadlines, and stakeholders. 

• Clear written and verbal communication skills and a collaborative, responsive, service-oriented approach. 

• Ability to safely lift, move, and set up production equipment and occasionally work outside normal business hours for scheduled productions. 

Preferred Qualifications 

• Experience engineering audio for executive communications, interviews, webinars, live or hybrid events, podcasts, and customer-facing content. 

• Experience with digital mixing consoles, Dante or other audio-over-IP workflows, wireless frequency coordination, intercom systems, remote contribution tools, and live streaming. 

• Familiarity with loudness standards, audio restoration, sound design, music editing, motion graphics, photography, or virtual production tools. 

• Familiarity with review and approval platforms, digital asset management systems, project-management tools, and cloud-based collaboration workflows.
