We Don't Run Like a Company. We Run Like a Community.

We're not just colleagues — we're a community of people who care deeply about helping others rediscover music. We're proud to be a 100% independent, Indian-owned business, bringing the world's finest headphones and audio gear to music lovers across India.

We choose to be the best, not the biggest. We serve our customers with the same level of care, respect, and attention we'd want for ourselves — guided by a simple ethos: we're ladies and gentlemen, serving ladies and gentlemen. And while we're not a music company, music is at the core of everything we do.

We're a Team of Freshers (& Proud of It)

Most of our team started their careers with us straight out of college. Why? Because we've learned that energy and curiosity beat experience every time.

We're not looking for people who've "done it before." We want people who are excited to figure it out for the first time. Fresh perspectives, innovative thinking, and the willingness to challenge how things are normally done — that's what drives us forward.

We don't care much about your degree or your college grades. What we care about is whether you're the kind of person who gets excited about learning new things and solving problems that don't have obvious answers.

We Fit Roles Into People, Not People Into Roles

Your role isn't a rigid box you have to squeeze into. It's more like a canvas that adapts to bring out your best skills and interests. Want to explore beyond your job description? Go for it. Have an idea that doesn't fit your "role"? We want to hear it.

Your role will evolve as you do, and that's exactly how we like it. Once you're here, our job is simple: enable you to do your best work and remove anything that gets in your way.

Welcome to Flatverse

Forget corporate hierarchies. At Headphone Zone, pretty much everyone reports to our founder, Raghav. We keep as few "levels" as possible because layers slow things down and dilute ideas.

This means you can walk up to anyone, message them on Slack, or grab them for a quick chat. Got an idea? You don't need to run it through three managers. See a problem? You can actually do something about it. Your ideas matter from day one, and you can see the direct impact of your work.

What We're Looking For

We want T-shaped people — folks who are curious about everything but have at least one area where they really shine. Think "jack of many trades, master of at least one."

Here's what gets us excited:

  • Natural curiosity — you ask "why" and "what if" a lot
  • Ownership mindset — you care about outcomes, not just checking boxes
  • Learning addiction — you see challenges as puzzles to solve
  • Team spirit — you genuinely want to help others succeed
  • Authenticity — you're comfortable being yourself

We're not looking for corporate robots or people who just want a "safe" job. We want people who get excited about our mission and naturally fit into a culture where everyone's trying to do great work.

We Believe in Equal Opportunity

We're an equal opportunity workplace. Our commitment is to equal employment opportunity regardless of religion, sex, caste, race, national origin, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, or gender identity.

If you have a disability or special need that requires accommodation, please let us know when you apply.

What Working Here is Actually Like

Your work matters: Everything you do connects to helping people discover amazing music. You can see the direct impact of your work.

You'll learn constantly: We don't have all the answers, so you'll often be figuring things out alongside experienced teammates. This means faster learning and real ownership of results.

Your ideas count: In our flat structure, good ideas can become reality quickly. You won't spend months getting approvals or fighting bureaucracy.

We've got your back: While we expect you to take ownership, you're never left to struggle alone. The team is genuinely invested in helping each other grow and succeed.

Growth opportunities: As we grow, new opportunities naturally emerge. Many of our team members have taken on bigger roles and responsibilities over the years.

Real relationships: We work hard and have fun doing it. You'll build genuine friendships with people who care about the same things you do.

Thanks to my mentors I learnt a lot of new things and got to explore fields that I didn't know existed. The highlight of working here is that you learn to appreciate music like never before.

MAHIMA, MARKETING

The experience was definitely worthwhile. It was a great opportunity & a chance to gain practical knowledge. The office environment is very warm & welcoming.

SHIVANI, MARKETING

There has not been a single day when I have not felt the excitement as my role here involves talking to customers and obsessing over headphones throughout the day.

VARUN DAMA, HEADPHONE GURU

It’s been 3 yrs, it’s definitely the most learning experience I have had. I still remember my interview and I had no idea back then that I’d come so far and work with these wonderful people.

SAMIKSHA, ESCALATION

Well there's never been a dull day at headphone zone. In the last one year that I've been associated here it's been nothing but a fulfilling journey. You can count on us like 1,2,3 because together we are a family.

STEFFI, CUSTOMER HAPPINESS OFFICER

2012

The First Headphone Zone Store Opens in Bangalore

It all started with a question, “Why did our music-loving population not have access to good headphones?” Our founder Raghav set out on a mission: To redefine the way Indians listen to music. A genuine passion for music and a great customer experience was all that was needed to bring Headphone Zone to life. This was the start of something special, as we opened our first retail store in Bengaluru.

2014

We Go Online with the Headphone Zone Webstore

I very quickly realised that to bring Headphone Zone to music listeners across India, we would have to open stores in every town, every neighbourhood, almost like Café Coffee Day outlets. That would be really expensive and super unsustainable.

2016

Headphone Connect is Born + Girl Power!

2016 was the year we created Headphone Connect - a unique community meetup event for headphone enthusiasts and audiophiles and held the first event in Mumbai. We would book out the coolest craft breweries across India and travel with bags full of expensive headphones, DACs and players. We'd invite everyone we knew to spend a day with us over good food, great craft beers, some incredible music, and ofcourse the finest collection of Headphones put together anywhere.

2018

We create Headphone Zone. Again.

We found that to take Headphone Zone to the next level, our existing brand was lacking, and was really created for a store in a mall. Redeveloping the Headphone Zone brand was the need of the hour. It meant letting go of everything we had created so far to make way for something new. Until now, we would attempt to do everything in-house, but this we decided to leave to the experts. We had to ask ourselves a lot of tough questions that helped us shape and define our brand's ethos, personality and communication style.

2019

Our Customer Happiness Officers & Headphone Gurus take Center Stage

For the first time, we had a large dedicated team of Headphone Gurus and Customer Happiness Officers who interacted with hundreds of customers everyday. It got pretty chaotic with 10 or more people being on calls simultaneously. We got very lucky finding another space in the same building and moved the teams there. This meant that there were problems when Maggi was made only in one office! But we still made it a point to come together everyday.

2020

A Year Where we Didn't let the Pandemic Get the Best of us

The year started out really positive for the team. We'd had 3 Townhalls with ambitious projections and plans for the year. Then March happened. COVID-19 lockdowns affected everyone and we were no different. We really thought we were in serious trouble.

2021

A Year of Ups and Downs

The year began on a high with a lot of us resuming Work from Office, and then the 2nd wave of COVID-19 hit, and one after another many from the team contracted the virus. To add to the gloom, one of the offices on our floor broke into quite a disastrous fire. But things started looking up! By June, vaccinated and victorious, it was finally viable for all of us to fill the vacancy of our empty office.

The year ended on a high too with us running some of our most successful sales ever like Black Friday Cyber Monday and the Christmas Sale.

2022

What Unfolded in The Year 2022

A very momentous year for us. We saw rapid traction from resuming Headphone Zone's first meetup event after the pandemic: about 2000 enthusiastic audiophiles attended Headphone Connect in 8 cities over our summer and winter edition. Despite half the team being constantly on the move to host the event, we managed to grow from 2021 through our successful sales. We also hosted our very first Garba Night. But it was not all just fun and games, we got to connect with our warehouse team in Chennai to build better processes and form bonds closer than ever.

Creativity, Music, Enthusiasm & Abundance

A very happening year for the team with a lot of events: 12 Headphone Connects, 2 Club Audiophile meetups co-hosted alongwith Moonshine, and several listening sessions. Creatively, the team was quite empowered. The result: 2 Diwali ad films created 100% in-house including acting, singing, shooting & editing. We also created our own pack of tournament grade playing cards that we designed and made from scratch, with each card featuring an artist that we love listening to. 2023 was the year we hired like crazy and had to take up a second office space just to fit everyone!
