We're seeking an experienced Audio Engineer for our Austin-based Production Services team. This role provides audio engineering support for Apple's Austin theater spaces, delivering technical excellence for internal meetings and events that keep employees connected through in-person, virtual, and hybrid experiences.
Description
Working on the Production Services team to support teams across Apple, the Audio Engineer sets and maintains the highest production standards while leading the local audio crews and vendor partners. The primary function of this role is hands-on audio operation for events and remote productions. Production Services teams are intentionally small and cross-disciplinary - while audio is the primary focus of this role, we value engineers who are naturally curious with a continuous need to learn. You should want to grow across video, streaming, stage management, and other production disciplines. Success in this role requires deep technical expertise, meticulous preparation, and calm execution in executive-facing environments with zero margin for error. You'll work directly with senior leaders and their teams - from micing up executives minutes before a live event to coordinating logistics with non-technical support staff. Poise, discretion, and clear communication are as critical as technical skill.
Minimum Qualifications
7+ years of proven experience supporting large-scale productions, touring, or medium to large size performance theaters or amphitheaters.
Proficient in console bussing and complex routing - groups, auxiliaries, matrices, and mix-minus - with the ability to maintain signal integrity across multiple output paths.
Demonstrated expertise in television, theatrical, concert, and event audio mixing.
Solid A2 background with proven expertise in micing talent, managing RF frequencies, and deploying comms systems in live, executive-facing production environments.
Deep knowledge of signal flow and system design, including both analog and networked audio paths such as Dante and AVB
Thorough understanding of acoustics and audio device selection and placement.
Proven ability to work directly and professionally with senior executives, presenters, and non-technical stakeholders in high-pressure, live production settings.
Willingness to develop skills beyond audio - interest in video engineering, broadcast workflows, or adjacent production disciplines.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience in corporate or executive-facing production environments where discretion, composure, and interpersonal skills are essential.
Clear communicator with the ability to translate technical concepts for non-technical audiences - comfortable fielding questions from executive admin, event producers, and senior staff.
Experience with immersive and spatial audio systems.
Strong understanding of audio networking, including Dante, redundancy, and system design.
Advanced experience with SSL System T and Yamaha Rivage digital mixing consoles.
Strong knowledge of ClearCom and Riedel comms systems.
Ability to create and modify system line drawings, including signal flow diagrams and I/O documentation for production venues.
Commitment to safe work practices and high production standards.
Track record of working on small, collaborative teams where roles flex based on production needs.
