You’re a strategic visionary. You're innovative and adaptive and have sharp analytical and problem-solving skills. You're obsessed with emerging design trends and have a strong sense for how brand experiences are evolving and what’s needed to keep WavMaker competitive in the market. 

You’re a strong facilitator. You can communicate with, present to, and influence all audiences within and outside of the organization. You can cast a clear vision for WavMaker’s brand design, align and excite all stakeholders around it, and ensure successful execution across all teams with ease and integrity.

You value what we value. You believe in and demonstrate WavMaker’s Core Values: 

Make The Creator the Star  

WavMaker is the way, but creator stories are the “why”. Our music, platform, marketing and product experience all are laser-focused on ensuring our creators, and the stories they’re setting out to tell, stay in the spotlight. 

Begin With the End in Mind 

We’re preparing for the future at WavMaker. The future of music and storytelling, the future of our product and company – at WavMaker we’re focused on establishing excellence and preparing for growth now so we’re ready for whatever opportunities come our way. 

Chase Strategic Innovation 

We don’t believe in change for the sake of change. We believe in changing for the better – and keeping our eyes open and ears to ground for opportunities to change our thinking, and in turn the creative world. 

Strive for Simplicity 

Complexity is easy, simplicity is hard. Simplicity means we’ve achieved ultimate sophistication in our product and through every touchpoint with the end-user. Simplicity ensures creators will see, feel, and experience the value of WavMaker time and time again – without distractor or friction. 

Stay Humble, Hungry, & Honest 

To win with WavMaker means checking ego at the door. We’re a team of insatiably hungry, agile, open-minded and honest thinkers who are willing to bring our best forward but adapt to be even better. Failure should never be wasted on our team as we learn together – to make our company, and the world, a better place.
