Careers

With the ultimate goal of becoming the world's top sound production studio, INSPION is a team of creators brought together to brightly transform the world through sound.

At INSPION, we build work around our "people"—we never assemble "people" merely to serve a job.
In other words, we make absolutely no compromises when it comes to talent recruitment.

Consequently, though our hiring standards are exceptionally high, we are looking for new members to join our team.

The Four Commitments

INSPION makes the following commitments to our creators.
1

Full-time Employment

Whether you are a composer or a sound designer, we actively offer full-time employment if you desire. While various employment models exist in our industry, the reality is that many current contracts are highly disadvantageous to creators. For composers in particular, the sheer diversity of musical genres means individual strengths and weaknesses are highly pronounced. Because of this professional nature, providing a stable, fixed salary through full-time employment requires an exceptionally high level of organizational management on the company's part. However, by streamlining knowledge sharing, teamwork, and the division of roles, INSPION has successfully built a system that supports full-time employment for creators. Currently, almost all of our creators are full-time staff.
※Full-time employment is subject to a separate evaluation process during the hiring phase.
2

Strict Confidentiality

We understand that career transitions can involve highly sensitive matters. All inquiries and communications received by our company are managed under a strict information security system, and your data will never be shared with anyone outside the designated personnel.

The Best Working Environment

We do not impose a budget on development equipment. On the condition that it pursues ultimate quality and avoids waste, we will procure any development equipment our creators request. While certain gear may be subject to constraints depending on team collaboration and project requirements, you are entirely free to choose between Windows and Mac. The company fully covers all expenses for attending seminars, obtaining certifications, and purchasing experimental sound gear. Networking and entertainment expenses deemed beneficial to the company are also covered by the firm, regardless of your position. At our production atelier, drinks are provided free of charge (with water dispensers fully available), and the company fully subsidizes the cost of company-sponsored dinners and events. We invest without compromise in our production ateliers, recording studios, and equipment—ensuring there are absolutely no obstacles to hold you back in your pursuit of quality.
4

Challenge

To pursue the world's top sound, taking on challenges is absolutely essential. Because everyone at INSPION fully fulfills both their "responsibility to question" and "accountability to explain" when involved in a project, the entire team naturally unites as one to tackle any corporate challenge. By collectively upholding these two responsibilities, the concept of "shifting blame" simply does not exist at INSPION. This fosters a culture where we can come together as one to successfully execute massive challenges.

INSPION deeply values its philosophy and principles.
