  • Contribute to artist discovery by identifying breakout talent and supporting their growth through editorial ecosystems
  • Create engaging editorial content beyond playlists, including written and multimedia storytelling
  • You have at least 6+ years of experience in music, media, or entertainment, with a strong understanding of digital platforms
  • You have deep knowledge of global music culture, especially hip-hop and international genres, and how they connect with audiences in India
  • You understand how listener behavior, culture, and trends intersect, and can translate that into meaningful editorial decisions
  • You’re comfortable working with data and using insights to guide your thinking and measure impact
  • You communicate clearly and confidently in English; additional Indian languages are a plus
  • You bring a strong point of view on music and culture, paired with curiosity and openness to new perspectives
  • You collaborate effectively across teams and are comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving environment
  • You’re organized, adaptable, and bring a thoughtful, inclusive approach to your work
