Low Battery, Los Angeles, CA

Vision
    • We will be the definitive home for next-generation superfans in music & culture.
    • The future is a world where we're undeniably the leader in social-first brand building. Obsession has driven perfection in tailoring our content to audience passion points and we've transformed followers into fiercely loyal community members.
    • We've bridged the gap from the digital to the physical world, providing our communities with unforgettable experiences and products that define culture. We've become the go-to platform for artists to amplify their stories, distribute their music, and partner with brands.


About Us
    • Low Battery is a network of nine social-first brands with an audience of over 50 million. We're where the next generation of superfans comes for entertainment related to music and culturally relevant content. Our brands span music, fashion, gaming, news, and more.


Company Culture
    • We don't hide the truth that it won't be easy to work here. We're bringing together a special team obsessed with craftsmanship and high standards, and we're cultivating a unique culture to make our ambitious vision a reality. Some characteristics include but are not limited to:
    • Big ambitions matched by uncommon hard work & commitment;
    • A high degree of autonomy and a builders mindset: "Stop complaining, Start solving";
    • Radical obsession over our audiences;
    • Uncompromisingly high standards for quality &creativity;
    • Relentless accountability & ownership;
    • Overwhelming transparency matched with direct communication & feedback;
    • A-typical encouragement of failure & learning;
    • Desperate pursuit of truth and goals as opposed to looking good;
    • We're early on our journey...paddling out to catch the big wave. Every day we strive to live these values, but we're not perfect, and it doesn't always happen. While our culture will evolve over time, many of these values are fundamental and, therefore, will not.
    • If this sounds exciting - come be uncommon with us - we look forward to working with you!
