The Word Church is seeking a high-level Front of House (FOH) Audio Engineer to join our live production team on a contract basis. This is more than just mixing sound—this is about shaping the experience of thousands each week through excellence, intentionality, and technical mastery.

We're looking for a seasoned live sound professional with a passion for creating high-impact environments in a fast-paced, multi-camera, multi-service worship setting. You must be confident in your craft, collaborative under pressure, and committed to getting it right—every time.

  • Handle EQ, dynamics, FX, and system tuning based on room acoustics and service type
  • Coordinate stage audio and IEM (in-ear monitor) needs in real-time
  • Maintain and organize all FOH gear, cabling, racks, and mixing surfaces
  • Support stage management as needed to ensure seamless transitions and communication

What You Bring:

  • 3+ years of FOH experience in live production environments (church, concert, or touring preferred)
  • Proficiency with digital consoles (Yamaha QL/CL, Allen & Heath, Avid, etc.)
  • Mastery of Dante and networked audio systems
  • Strong understanding of signal processing, gain structure, RF coordination, and stage patching
  • Ability to think fast, solve problems, and keep your cool under pressure
  • A team-first mindset and the ability to collaborate with both creatives and technical crew
  • Willingness to work weekends, early mornings, and occasional evenings

Bonus Points For:

  • Experience mixing in churches or faith-based environments
  • Familiarity with Waves plugins and playback/recording setups
  • Ability to train and mentor junior techs or volunteers
  • Certifications in audio engineering or manufacturer-specific training

To Apply:
