Audio Programmer (m/f/d)

For more than 15 years Deep Silver FISHLABS has been creating compelling games that have been brought to life on millions of screens across the globe. We joined the Deep Silver / Koch Media family in late 2013 and, since then, we have continuously raised the quality bar. Today, we are one of four internal development studios run by our parent company, alongside Deep Silver Volition in the US, Deep Silver Dambuster Studio in the UK and Warhorse Studios in the Czech Republic.

We specialize in high-end 3D games for consoles and PC. With a strong development history and award-winning portfolio of mobile games; such as blockbuster space-action shooter Galaxy on Fire: Manticore and the tactical zombie brawler Dead Island: Survivors; we are currently developing thrilling titles for the PS4, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch.

The Core Tech team focuses on anything related to engine, tools, performance, and platform support. We also make sure our games stay on the cutting edge by exploring new technologies and ideas. You design and implement audio features for our projects together with the audio team. You develop audio tools while working with Unreal Engine as well as with audio middleware like Fmod or Wwise.
