We’ve heard about Microsoft’s Kudo Tsunoda, one of the creators for Kinect, and the new project he’s working on. However, a recent job listing for a Senior Software Engineer suggests that Microsoft’s Kinect creators could be working on some new technology.

The job listing states that the candidate will need to “build magical, delightful and disruptive consumer experiences for the next generation of technology (from the creators of the Kinect: Alex Kipman and Kudo Tsunoda)” and that they are “looking to make significant contributions to the early stages of a project with huge growth potential.”

While the “next generation of technology” could be referring to the Xbox One itself (rather than something brand new), one of the key responsibilities requires the candidate to, “Drive the planning, estimation, implementation, execution and measurement of technologies.” In a way it could be something brand new or at least a small addition to the current Xbox One experience.

It must be noted that this piece of information should be taken with a grain of salt, but what are your thoughts on this? Let us know in the comments below.
