Senior full-stack engineer

We're looking for a strong full stack engineer to join our team. You’ll play a key role in defining our product focus in harmony with the founders and support team. You are eager to create products that people love to use and are able to think from the perspective of the user and deliver meaningful features from abstract requests. You’re able to think about the entire context of the product we’re building, not just the one feature.

In our small team you’ll find ample time to work on real problems and help shape the product. This also means you will wear many different hats every day and are able to contribute to and own many different aspects of the what we’re building.

As a developer, you are open to learn and adapt but know when to use proven technology over the industry's current buzz. If you have a passion or prior understanding of the music industry, that's great, and you'll love what we do, but it is surely not a requirement as long as you’re willing to learn the ins and outs of the business.

Who we are
We are a DIY distribution and promotion platform for independent artists and labels. In an industry that's notoriously over-complicated and dominated by players who only care about volume, we're building something kinder: a genuinely helpful way to release music and build a following.

We already support more than 20,000 users in their music careers. In the Netherlands, we're a leading provider of independent digital music distribution, and we continue to grow steadily on an international scale.

Our stack

• Our frontends use React, TypeScript and next.js developed in a monorepo
• For the backend processes we use typed Python mainly
• The API’s are mainly served using FastAPI
• PostgreSQL as our primary database, which we talk to using SQLAlchemy
• We ship everything as docker containers and run them on GKE
• Google Cloud for everything, managed using Terraform
• Automated deployments using Github Actions, Fluxcd

Gevraagd

• You have proven track record of the full stack of technologies and practices (5+ years)
• Able to work independently and take ownership within a small team and thrive in a flexible environment
• Familiarity with SQL databases and transactional guarantees
• Write high quality, well documented and tested code
• Good understanding of Git and Github
• Strong verbal and written communications skills (English)
• Available at least 4 days a week, of which at least two on site at our office in Amsterdam (we're unfortunately not in a position to offer relocation or visa sponsorship)

Aanbod

• Competitive salary and benefits
• Lots of freedom and possibility to take ownership of the product within a small team
• A nice office space in Amsterdam where you'll have the ability to both socialise and find the silence needed to work
• Ability to plan your own time, if you deliver on your work we don’t ask many questions
• You’ll get a laptop of course, we all use macbooks but if you prefer something else that’s fine (and you’ll have a 4K screen at the office)
