Full Stack Engineer

WELCOME TO UTOPIA

Music is incredible. It can excite hundreds, and unite thousands. But as an industry, it has been slow, complicated, and disparate. While the tech world has moved into the future, the music industry continues to be shaped by inefficient systems of the past. At Utopia we believe there is a better way. Which is why today we are setting out to transform the entire industry; creating new revenue streams, consolidating the data and decluttering the admin. Unlocking the industry’s full potential by unifying it all in one truly holistic space. Some might call that a Utopia.

Funnily enough, so do we. Welcome to Utopia. Where music lives.

WHAT UTOPIANS DO

We are building a better world for music with innovative big data technology that tracks online music sources and translates them into meaningful music consumption reports for royalty collection. The solution we’re building does not threaten to usurp the role of industry incumbents - it is about bringing transparency in the industry and supporting efficient royalty collection.

WHAT YOUR ROLE WILL BE

You will be part of a team creating products for delivering and presenting data about how music is played all around the globe. Our end users are music collection societies, who all share our goal of #fairpayforeveryplay! We aim to create products and services that are practical, useful, and follow the Utopia brand.
The team consists of both frontend and full stack developers ranging from junior to senior developers. We work closely together with our engineering manager, product managers, and design team.
We primarily work in React and Next.js, with Node.js as backend and MongoDB as database
