Resident Advisor has been a home for electronic music culture since 2001. Event discovery, ticketing, news and long-form editorial, artist profiles, original films, and a weekly mix series two decades deep. Around 7 million people use the web platform every month, with a wider audience across our apps and other channels. Underneath the platform sits a network of contributors and city managers across dozens of cities, which is how we stay connected to the scenes we cover rather than reporting on them from a distance. RA is 25 years old, independent, B.Corp certified and intent on being indispensable to the artists, promoters and audiences who make this culture.
You'll build features for the RA Guide iOS app from design to release, with support from the Apps lead and room to grow towards senior.
RA Guide is RA's app for browsing events and buying tickets, native on iOS and Android and used by thousands of people every day. We also make RA Scan, a cross-platform app promoters use to scan tickets at the door. You'll join the Apps team: the Apps lead (who also builds on iOS), an Android developer and a product manager, working closely with design and the web teams who build the APIs the app uses.
We release weekly. Native releases can't be rolled back once they're out, so we care about getting each one right: tests, careful review, and watching what happens after release.
If you meet most of these but not all, we'd still like to hear from you. We'll help you grow into the rest.
We are independent and we intend to stay that way. 25 years in, RA answers to the culture it came from rather than to outside stakeholders. That is what enables us to make decisions on a long-term basis.
Our staff, contributors and international teams are not observers. They are part of the scenes we cover, and that is what we hire for. Craft first, and then a genuine stake in this music rather than just a job in it.
RA has been B Corp certified since 2024, which holds us to standards on social and environmental impact we would want to meet regardless of the badge.
We especially welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds, abilities, ethnicities, experiences, gender identities, and sexual orientations.
This role is a full-time, fixed-term position, based in London at our Head Office. Please note: this position requires applicants to be based in London and to work from the office three days per week. The annual salary range for this role is £50,000 to £70,000. If you have questions about the role, please contact work@ra.co.
This listing will be open for a minimum of two weeks from 25th September. Please be sure to add work@ra.co to your contacts and check your junk/spam folder for emails from us.
