Now Hiring: Part-Time Mix Engineer Assistant!
Are you an aspiring mix engineer and eager to learn the ins and outs of working in a professional studio environment? I’m looking for a Part-Time Mix Assistant to support me (Cian Riordan) with ongoing projects ranging from indie to major label work.
Location: Los Angeles Area (or remote)
Schedule: VERY Part-time (5–15 hrs/week, totally dependent on mix workload)
Compensation: TBD, based on experience.
What You'll Do:
Assist with session prep and organization.
You’ll field mix sessions & files from clients and integrate them into my mix template.
You’ll also be responsible for stem printing and delivery of mixes to mastering.
You are welcome to do this work remotely from your own system or use my studio outside of normal work hours (M-F 8am-6pm).
Who You Are:
A young aspiring recording/mix engineer looking to gain insight and experience in the field. This really isn’t a job for someone who is far down the road in their own recording career!
Ideally, you’ll have either another job or will have your own recording/mix business in parallel.
Experienced in Pro Tools. No ways around this… you need to have the basics down.
Strong ear for detail and a good musical sense — preferably for rock/alternative/pop music. Not much hip-hop & R&B coming my way, sadly.
Organized, reliable, and respectful of deadlines.
Willing to learn and take direction, but also able to work independently. Learning should be a two-way street here.
Bonus Points If You Have:
Experience with editing performances, vocal tuning, and iZotope RX.
A strong background in Mac OS.
A flexible schedule. You’d be welcome to come and hang out in person while I mix… I am happy to teach you everything I know.
To Apply:
Send an email to the below address with:
(PLEASE DON’T TEXT ME OR IG MESSAGE ME!!!!)
A short intro about yourself and why you think you’d be a good fit.
Links to any recording & mix work you’ve done and what your role was.
