About the role
Radio Buena Vida is a community-led internet radio station and arts platform championing under-represented voices through music and creativity.
We're looking for someone with strong technical skills and practical experience in audio, broadcasting or other relevant technology to help keep our broadcasts running smoothly and develop our digital systems.
You'll work alongside our volunteer radio producers and wider team, troubleshooting technical problems, supporting our broadcasting equipment and digital infrastructure, and maintaining our growing archive.
What you'll do
- Support the day-to-day technical running of the station, including monitoring of live radio broadcasts, broadcasting equipment, streaming systems and troubleshooting.
- Providing assistance & feedback to presenters & DJs
- Support with the training and development of our volunteer radio producers.
- Oversee recordings, audio quality, uploads, metadata and our digital archive.
- Monitor automated radio systems, identify errors and help resolve problems.

- Strong practical technical skills and experience in at least one relevant area, such as internet radio broadcasting software, audio production, sound engineering, coding, website development or maintenance, OBS/video streaming, or DJ and audio equipment.
- Proven ability to investigate and troubleshoot technical problems, identify causes and find practical solutions.

- Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail.
- Strong communication skills and a supportive approach to working with volunteers.

You must have existing technical skills and experience to apply, but you don't need to be experienced in every area listed. We're particularly interested in people who can apply their technical knowledge across different systems and help improve the reliability of our broadcasts.
We welcome relevant experience gained through paid work, volunteering, community radio, independent projects and self-taught practice.
We particularly welcome applications from people who are under-represented in the music, broadcasting and creative industries.
