Backend Engineer - Revenue Engineering
About us
Soundtrack is a B2B scale-up company providing music streaming services for businesses. We serve small customers like the café around the corner, and much bigger brands like Joe & the Juice, Toni & Guy and TAG Heuer. On the inside, we're a bunch of talented, motivated and humble designers, engineers and music experts. We believe in product-led growth, where the product is the primary driver of customer acquisition, conversion and expansion.
The Role
We're looking for a Backend Engineer (Go) to join the Revenue Engineering team at Soundtrack.

You'll collaborate closely with backend engineers, frontend developers and product stakeholders to deliver scalable and maintainable solutions that support Soundtrack's continued growth.
