  • Experience with intelligent/dynamic lighting fixtures (e.g., moving heads, LED pixel arrays).
  • Familiarity with show control systems and syncing lighting to video or audio cues.
  • Knowledge of real-time rendering environments or streaming workflows is a plus.
  • Strong organizational and communication skills.
  • Ability to work under tight deadlines in a fast-paced tech-driven environment.

  • Background in lighting design for gaming, broadcast, or esports.
  • Experience with Unreal Engine, Unity, or real-time virtual production tools.

  • Understanding of color theory and visual storytelling in digital spaces.
