Senior Software Developer (Songtradr)
About this role
Help build the backstage of the music industry.
When a song plays in a hotel lobby, on social media ads or in an airplane cabin, there's technology behind it. Songtradr builds part of that infrastructure - and now we're opening a tech hub in Helsinki to take it further.
Songtradr is a global music technology company powering how music is licensed, distributed, and experienced worldwide.
Through MassiveMusic and our core B2B platform (formerly 7digital), we work with global brands and businesses - handling billions of requests every month and enabling music to be used across everything from advertising to physical spaces.
Songtradr also operates Bandcamp, one of the largest marketplaces for independent artists, with over 27 million monthly users connecting artists directly with their global fanbase.
While this role sits on the B2B platform side, the impact of what you build can extend across the Songtradr ecosystem.
Now we're looking for a Senior Software Developer to be one of the first hires in our new Helsinki tech hub. You'll shape the team, the culture, and the code.
Responsibilities
- You'll join the API team behind the MassiveMusic platform: enterprise-grade, service-oriented, and used by some of the world's biggest brands and platforms to access, manage, and deliver music. Think APIs, CDNs, databases, and the front-end tooling around them.
- You'll have full end-to-end ownership - from planning and architecture to shipping and monitoring - alongside a small, senior team that ships to production multiple times a day. We follow lean principles, keep stories small and value-driven, and pair-program remotely. TDD is deeply embedded in how we work, so a genuine care for quality and testing is key to succeeding in this role.
- This is a great fit if you value autonomy, a flat organisation, and a team that genuinely cares about what they build.
