Product Manager – 3D Audio Production (f/m/d)

WHAT YOU WILL DO

HOLOPLOT is a pro audio company from Berlin. Since early 2011, we have been working on radically transforming audio technology by re-thinking the underlying physics of sound reproduction.

We have recently launched the HOLOPLOT X1 Matrix Array, the sound system for a new era, a powerful tool that brings previously inaccessible capabilities to the world of audio – enabling a completely new way of designing and experiencing sound in 3D.

HOLOPLOT Create will be the 3D and object-based audio production suite that allows artists and sound designers to make full use of these unique and novel creative capabilities (based on 3D Audio-Beamforming and Wave Field Synthesis) – enabling them to produce transformational and truly immersive audio experiences.

ABOUT US
We are a pro audio company from Berlin, Germany. Since early 2011, we have been working on radically transforming audio technology, by re-thinking the underlying physics of sound reproduction. We wondered: What if sound could truly be controlled the way we can control light? What if we could create soundscapes that feel more real than reality? What if every seat in a venue could be made the best seat?

Our solution is science-based, software-driven, and hardware-enabled: the HOLOPLOT Matrix Array. The sound system for a new era, a powerful tool that brings previously inaccessible capabilities to the world of audio.

We believe when people experience better sound, they will enjoy more meaningful moments and create richer memories, leading to more fulfilling lives. At HOLOPLOT, it is our mission to redefine what is possible – enabling unparalleled and breathtaking experiences. A revolution in sound. Be part of it.
