Description

Crytek is hiring a Junior Technical Audio Designer to join its Audio Department in Frankfurt, working on Hunt: Showdown 1896 alongside a Senior Technical Audio Designer to drive audio implementation and tooling. You will sit between audio designers, technical designers, and programmers, turning creative ideas into robust systems for a multiplayer shooter, and build workflow tools in Python (picking up WAAPI). This is a genuine entry-level position: you do not need shipped credits, but you do need to know Wwise, be able to write Python, and want to get very good at the craft. Over time you will grow into owning audio systems end to end and building larger pipeline tools.

Requirements

Experience implementing audio in a game engine
Knowledge of Wwise and the Wwise Authoring Tool (personal projects, game jams, university work, and mods all count)
Ability to write Python
A portfolio, reel, or GitHub showing audio work, tools, or both
Ability to communicate technical ideas clearly to non-technical developers
Strong organization and planning skills with a positive, constructive attitude
Love and passion for games, sound, and music
Willingness to relocate to Frankfurt am Main, Germany

About the company

Crytek

Frankfurt-based AAA game studio and developer of the proprietary CryENGINE. After the February 2025 layoffs (15% of ~400 staff), the company put the next Crysis game on hold and refocused exclusively on Hunt: Showdown 1896 (live-service shooter, which crossed 10M players in fall 2025) and CryENGINE licensing. In January 2026 industry veteran Hannes Seifert (ex-Rockstar/Deep Silver/IO Interactive/Riot) joined founder Avni Yerli as Co-CEO to lead game production and publishing.
