Production & Broadcast Tech Manager

THE OPPORTUNITY

Swish Breaks, headquartered in NYC, is one of the fastest-growing live shopping companies in sports, trading cards, and collectibles. We’re building a multi-platform commerce and entertainment ecosystem with a loyal community across Whatnot, Fanatics Live, Tik Tok, and digital experiences. Our team moves fast, obsesses over the product, and is redefining the shopping experience for customers all over the globe. If you want to help change the game this is the place.

The Broadcast Tech Manager owns how Swish shows up live. This role builds and operates the technical backbone behind Swish’s live streams across daily rooms, marquee moments, and onsite activations. You’ll turn scrappy setups into a polished, repeatable system by upgrading rooms, standardizing workflows, and launching a flagship broadcast that defines the Swish look. This isn’t legacy broadcast—it’s modern live media across OBS, lighting, cameras, graphics, and platform-native tools from You Tube and Twitch extended to Whatnot, Fanatics Live and Tik Tok Live Shopping.

This role is for a hands‑on technical owner who moves fast, learns new tech quickly, and obsesses over quality, reliability, and streamer experience, working closely with streamers, ops, content, and leadership to make every stream feel premium.

• Own how Swish shows up live, delivering streams that look premium, feel intentional, and never break in front of fans

• Design the broadcast blueprint, turning cameras, lighting, audio, OBS, and graphics into repeatable setups that scale fast

• Level up Swish’s flagship rooms, powering marquee shows, partners, and moments that define the brand

• Build plug‑and‑play production systems that unlock new channels, new locations, and off‑site activations without chaos

• Own the post‑stream pipeline, ensuring clean asset capture, media management, and smooth handoff into post‑production, social, and content workflows

• Be the calm in the chaos, setting quality standards, documenting systems, training streamers, and fixing live issues when it actually matters

• 6‑8+ years of hands‑on experience building and operating live production systems across modern streaming platforms and broadcast environments

• Real reps in live production, from creator platforms (You Tube, Twitch, Tik Tok), live shopping platforms to broadcast environments

• Deep hands‑on command of the live stack—OBS, cameras, lighting, audio, encoding, and live workflows

• A builder’s track record, taking production setups from scrappy to scalable

• Strong live judgment, staying cool and decisive when streams are live and stakes are high

• Fast‑learner energy, picking up new tools, platforms, and workflows without waiting for permission

• Clear communication instincts, helping non‑technical streamers look confident and professional on camera

• Experience in live shopping, creator marketplaces, ecommerce, sports, and/or TCG

• You are a culture warrior and thrive in expressive environments (streetwear, sports, gaming, media)

• You love creators, fans, collectors, and the culture that surrounds them — this isn’t just a job to you

• Model championship culture: speed, precision, no ego, no drama, high accountability

• High ownership:
  Leaders here solve, not wait

• No ego:
  We review, take feedback, fix mistakes fast

• Speed + judgment:
  You ship constantly

• AI‑first:
  If it can be automated, you automate it

• In‑office energy:
  Culture doesn’t build itself on Zoom
