Audio Software Engineer

Motorsport Simulations, LLC, the world’s leading and most authentic PC-based racing simulation is seeking an Audio Software Engineer with a strong proficiency in designing and implementing real-time audio systems for racing games, including audio middleware integration, DSP fundamentals, performance optimization, and cross-platform support to join our team.

As an Audio Software Engineer, you will be part of a team that is responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining the complete sound systems for multiple motor racing titles on PC and console. As a technical sound designer, you will collaborate with recording artists and sound designers providing authoring tools and supporting the implementation of complex sonic models into various middle wares including FMOD, open

AL, and XAudio. As an audio programmer you will work closely with simulation engineers to provide a physics-driven soundscape, managing the performance and reliability of the audio system. At iRacing, we understand that audio compensates for the senses that are not stimulated when racing virtually, so you will use existing and emerging technologies to improve the realism and fidelity for drivers through spatial audio and haptic cues.

We understand the unique benefits that audio immersion provides and consider it as important as graphical immersion. Our candidate should have a passion for audio, gaming, programming, and simulation.

• 5+ years professional C++ programming experience
• Experience developing and integrating sound engines in the gaming or simulation industries.
• Experience integrating with audio middle wares and system APIs.
• BS in computer science, or equivalent experience

• 3+ years professional Python experience in high performance applications (Cython)
• Experience with Digital Signal Processing, Acoustics, and Linear Systems e.g. filter design, granular synthesis, convolution, transfer functions, system identification and modeling
• Experience with spatial audio e.g. object-based rendering, wave propagation, occlusion, early reflections, reverberation, ambisonics, near field effects
• Experience with digital communication and protocols including data formats, speech processing, and psycho acoustics
• Knowledge of audio engineering and sound design
• Interest in motorsports and cars
• Passion for gaming or simulation
• Experience collaborating in a team with diverse skills and backgrounds.

In addition to competitive pay and benefits, we offer the opportunity to be part of a talented team building high-quality, immersive games for players worldwide.
