Looking for Cofounder – C++ Audio Engineer to Build a Next-Gen DAW

JUCE Jobs

Hey everyone,

I’m working on a new project: building a next-generation DAW from the ground up, with a focus on real-time performance and AI-assisted music creation.

I’m looking for a C++ audio engineer who’s excited about joining as a cofounder and shaping the core engine .

What’s already in place:

  • Clear product vision + working prototype (UI + AI-assisted workflow).

  • Early user testing (20 active testers).

What I’m looking for in you:

  • Deep C++ experience in real-time / performance-critical code.

  • Strong background in audio engines, DSP, or plugin hosting (JUCE, VST3/AU/CLAP).

  • Understanding of low-latency systems (no locks/allocs on audio thread, lock-free queues, buffer management).

  • Ideally: shipped plugins, DAWs, or serious open-source audio projects.

What you’d be building with me:

  • Low-latency, cross-platform audio engine (Windows/macOS/Linux).

  • Plugin hosting and sandboxing.

  • Modular audio graph with sample-accurate automation.

  • Rendering, bouncing, and stem workflows.

  • Modern GPU-accelerated UI.

  • Hooks for AI-driven composition and audio tools.

Commitment & upside:
This is a cofounder role with meaningful equity and shared ownership. We’re based in Zurich, but remote works fine.

If this sounds interesting, I’d love to chat! Please DM me here or email me at adamzinebi@gmail.com with a bit about your background (links to projects/code would be a huge plus).
