Schiefer joins Voicemod after seven and a half years with ESL Gaming, the world’s largest esports company. As vice president of digital marketing services, he led the division that drove digital storytelling, performance marketing, media products, and creative integrations for publishing partners, sponsors and media platforms.

Earlier in his career, Johannes spent five years with PokerStrategy.com, the world’s largest poker portal, where he led the strategic development and management of market analysis and consulting operations.

“Johannes’ background, culture, experience, and professional accomplishments are an excellent complement to Voicemod’s leadership and operations teams,” said Jaime Bosch, Voicemod CEO and co-founder. “His experience in community strategy, creative content, and business development, coupled with his deep understanding of the video game industry and creator economy, will be critical as we continue to build our product, secure valuable partnerships, and shape the future of social audio.”

Presently, Voicemod is the leading audio augmentation software among creative professionals, gamers, and content creators alike, providing a fast and simple way to apply distinct voice skins and to create individualized audioscapes across a breadth of online communication platforms and video games. In addition to its leading B2C desktop application, Voicemod recently launched its B2B Voicemod Software Developer Kit (SDK), aimed at enabling the whole metaverse ecosystem to utilize its immersive audio experience technology in games and applications.

“I am extremely happy to join such a visionary company at this exciting point in time. Voicemod has spent the last few years building incredibly powerful technology and is now poised to help redefine how we look at online audio experiences and communication,” said Johannes Schiefer. “As the world talks about the metaverse and how it will look and work, it’s incredibly exciting for me to tackle the issue of how we will sound and communicate in it. A digital identity isn’t complete if we are simply talking about visual representations of ourselves. Building audio avatars, enabling users to shape sonic identities, and creating tools that make voice communication more interactive and expressive is an incredibly thrilling prospect.”
