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
The open secret is that the music industry is struggling with the very basics of music accounting: What was played, when and where? Who should get paid and how much?
Utopia Music is bridging the data gap by connecting global consumption, accurate metadata, and fast payments to an industry-wide trust platform. Our goal is to unlock creative value and enable Fair Pay For Every Play to make a better world for Music. The solutions we offer do not threaten to usurp the role of industry incumbents - it is about bringing transparency in the industry and supporting efficient royalty collection for all.
THE ROLE
At Utopia we continuously evaluate the value of music catalogs and would like to go from monitoring towards forecasting. To this end, we would like you to help us build a forecasting engine that, based on previous metrics from a song’s or an artist’s performance can predict the future evolution of a song’s/artist’s performance and accompanying financial metrics.
For this position, we are looking for people with a track record in time series analysis, forecasting / predictive analytics who can devise and prototype such an engine, given the manyfold data streams we receive as input. This engine is then going to be built together with you in a team of engineers and data scientists / data engineers.
The mission is to build a reliable, scalable solution for forecasting a catalog’s value.
