We are seeking a seasoned Senior Technical Producer with a preferred background in audio technology to help drive organization, communication, planning and process execution between multiple engineering teams. Collaborating closely with leadership teams, you will help drive ongoing strategic alignment and execution of critical priorities, roadmap development, and high-level goal setting.

• Proactively seek resolution - identify problems and propose solutions for your team before they become roadblocks. Own the outcome of your area, and never wait to see if someone else will clear your path

• Industry experience with technical product development or R&D in an audio related discipline
• Expert level people management and soft skills
