We're looking for a Senior Backend Developer to help us in our mission to bring more song to the world.
Our service runs in the cloud using Amazon Web Services. We have built our own platform-agnostic API using Python and Django, which serves content to all our clients — basically, we could even run karaoke on your smart, connected fridge door or toaster.
To make sure those fridges and toasters are able to communicate smoothly with our backend services we’ve started to migrate our backend to smaller micro-services. This allows us to select the right tool for the job and you can utilise your expertise to make the right decisions. Since the migration to micro-services is still in the early stages, your contribution will affect how the future of our backend system will look like.
Ideally, you have previously:
set up production environments using cloud services
developed scalable infrastructures
deployed services using containers
built products from the ground up to production-ready applications
developed client-facing services
BONUS: you lust for 101% code coverage
Interested? Here’s a bit more about Singa and our product.
We believe singing belongs to everyone, not just professionals and pop stars. It's something fundamental to us humans. That's why we invented Singa — a modern karaoke streaming service accessible for anyone, anywhere, anytime, and on any device.
We're building the future of singing by doing the same for karaoke what Netflix did for movies and Spotify for music — updating an entire industry. We are uniquely positioned to become the biggest brand in a global market with a 15-billion-dollar opportunity.
Let’s face it. Life without karaoke is boring. Luckily, Singa comes to the rescue, both at people’s homes and Singa-powered karaoke venues around the world.
On the B2B side of things, Singa helps bars and other nightlife venues grow their revenues with professional karaoke, background music, and display advertising software. Running karaoke with Singa Business is extremely cost-efficient and profitable, which makes it a great option for nightlife venues to entertain their customers and give them lifelong memories that keep them coming back. We have a rapidly growing network of over 1000 venues in Europe and the USA.
For consumers, the Singa karaoke app gives access to a huge library of high-quality karaoke songs on mobile, web browser, and Smart TV. You can sing on your own, make it a party with friends, or find the nearest Singa-powered karaoke venue and hit the stage.
In karaoke, everyone is free to be themselves, and the same applies to Singa. Doesn’t matter how, where, or when you work, as long as the work gets done. A lot of individual freedom is coupled with equal amounts of responsibility and ownership.
We are all different as people but united in our shared mission in making the world sing. Not to forget a few karaoke parties here and there, free singing lessons, epic staff trips, and other related shenanigans to keep it all interesting.
