Job Description

We're looking for a music engineer to join a team of content creators, working on both commercial client content as well as independent agency projects. You will be required to work well in teams comprising both musicians and non-musicians, in a very collaborative approach to making sound design and music – bringing together ideas from others as well as your own. You will also need the ability to work independently, and have an infectious creative energy to drive projects from concept to execution. If you are a passionate and open-minded sound engineer – who is fluent in established forms of music software and who also relishes exploring new methods and processes for creating music – this is the role for you.

Responsibilities include:

  • Create sound design for videos, both commercial client work and independent projects.
  • Produce original music for emerging artists and musicians in Hong Kong.
  • Your role will be to facilitate a very collaborative music making process, where you will work with teams comprised of both musicians and non-musicians to produce music. 
  • Open-mindedness is important, as is a passion for all methods of making music, whether it is an analogue synthesizer or an iPad app-based instrument.
  • A flexible approach to music creation is crucial, as you may be starting from a drum beat, or conversely starting from a vocal melody, or even starting from something completely unexpected.
  • An experimental and lifelong-learning mindset is also vital, as you will need the ability to pull together ideas from different people, and sounds from different software ecosystems both established and novel.
Requirements:
  • At least 2 to 3 years of relevant experience.
  • Fluent in creating music using an end-to-end Ableton Live workflow, and experienced in using Ableton Push 2.
  • Familiar with using instruments and developing sounds using the Native Instruments Komplete (NKS) ecosystem.
  • Experience with recording vocals and live instruments, and working on vocals with software such as Auto-Tune and Melodyne.
  • Knowledge of mastering in Avid Pro Tools.
  • A strong foundation in music theory, and more importantly how to apply this knowledge to modern music production. Ability to communicate this knowledge and passion to both musicians and non-musicians.
  • Ability in piano, guitar and other traditional instruments is a bonus, as is experience in analogue synthesizers, drum machines etc. 
  • Most important is the ability work with electronic instruments and synthesizers, as well as samples. 
  • A very deep knowledge of Cantopop, and an equally deep passion for all kinds of modern pop music and other genres from all around the world.
  • Passionate about understanding the evolution of music history to the present day, and analyzing what makes music continually relevant.
  • You must have both the confidence to work independently as well as the ability to thrive when working with different teams.
