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.
