As a Sound Designer at Snowprint, you’ll take a central role in creating and maintaining the audio identity of the award winning game Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus. You’ll work closely with developers, designers, VFX artists, animators, and producers to create audio that strengthens gameplay, atmosphere, and immersion for players around the world. At Snowprint Studios, we believe that kindness, collaboration, and self-leadership are what make great games possible.

Your work will include sound effects, voice over, marketing and trailer audio, and potentially music composition depending on your interests and experience. You’ll work hands-on with implementation in Unity and Wwise, making sure audio integrates smoothly into the game and supports gameplay, readability, and immersion. You’ll also collaborate closely with the rest of the team to plan upcoming content, maintain consistency in the game’s audio identity, and ensure that deliveries align with the overall player experience. As part of a small audio team consisting of you and Eero, our Lead Audio Designer, you’ll have broad responsibility and a high level of ownership. You’ll work closely together across both day-to-day production and longer-term planning, while also coordinating with outsourcing partners when needed and supporting across projects as priorities shift. Is this you? You are an experienced Sound Designer who has been part of shipping at least two games, from conception to launch. You have been part of both planning and delivery. You have professional experience creating and implementing game audio using Wwise and Unity, and you are comfortable working in modern DAWs such as Reaper or similar tools.
