We’re growing fast, have lots of fun, and are taking the music industry with us.



Activation

The Activation team focuses on helping new users succeed with Epidemic by helping them soundtrack their stories. We do this by taking a user-centric, fast paced approach to shipping code through constant experimentation and user testing. Our work always has the "why" at the core of its heart, valuing empathy for the user as well as having a focus on driving business metrics. Examples of areas we work are; onboarding, trial and churn behaviour, subscription management and more.

We are a creative and diverse bunch, passionate about continuous learning about our users, our product and ourselves. Being a cross-functional team, we're full-stack in the truest sense owning every part of the development process from start to finish.



How you will make an impact

You can expect to

- Contribute to all stages of the product life-cycle: Design, implementation, testing, releasing, and maintenance.
- Become a technical leader in the team and across the organization.


- Drive and contribute to larger technical projects across teams.

- Work in a fast-paced environment where we constantly evaluate how we work and try to improve.
- Collaborate constantly: We’re big believers in teamwork and the value of practices like careful code reviews, pair (or mob) programming etc.
- Learn a ton of new things: Be it through hack-days, courses, conferences or tech-talks, we emphasize learning and we also expect you to share your knowledge with your colleagues.
- Have fun and take a lot of pride in what you and all of Epidemic Sound is doing.


This is a full-time position based at our HQ in Stockholm reporting to the team's Engineering Manager.

You thrive in a team environment where collaboration is needed constantly and enjoy mentoring and knowledge sharing. Team-first mindset being the keyword.

With you, you bring a foundational knowledge of building complex web systems and can be a sound technical voice when reasoning about product/technical tradeoffs.

- Have experience building web applications using Python/Django and Javascript/React.
- Care about quality and you know what it means to ship high-quality code.
- Have experience mentoring less experienced colleagues and drive the use of sound development practices.
- Are passionate about building great products that people love, and you always make technology choices with this end-goal in mind.
- Are experienced in working closely with business and product stakeholders and thus having a strong understanding of business and user needs.
- Speak English with professional working proficiency (Swedish is not a requirement)


It would also be music to our ears if:
