The Sound Studio Instructor will be in charge of teaching, managing and developing the Odegaard Sound Studio. Sound Studio workshops are focused on UW Student creation of digital audio in the Odegaard Sound Studio. Approximately two-hour long workshops previously offered in the Sound Studio include: Ableton, ProTools, Audacity, Garageband, and Logic. The successful candidate for this position would be expected to teach, update, and add to these workshop offerings based on the UW community’s needs, as well as giving occasional one-on-one consultations to students who need them, answering client emails about technologies and software that falls in the Sound Studio area, and helping us keep the Sound Studio functional and up to date.
The position offers competitive pay, a highly flexible schedule (workshops are scheduled at the instructors’ discretion), a great team of co-instructors, and the opportunity to get experience teaching a wide variety of people. In addition, recent STF-funded updates to the Sound Studio have improved security, functionality, and options within the space. We believe this is one of the greatest benefits of the position, and would strongly encourage people who are interested in teaching, musicianship, studio management, or in the digital humanities or digital scholarship to apply.
We want to fill this position with the best possible candidate and are happy to interview candidates by Skype or Google Hangout if they are not able to come to campus. Training is available on all essential position Duties, and will be provided by the outgoing instructor.
