Location: Remote-first (UTC to UTC+3 preferred) | Type: Full-time | Reports to: Head of Tech
Salary: Competitive + equity
How to apply: send your CV to alfredo@gotobeat.com
Why this role matters
Promoters, venues and artists run their business on Gotobeat: booking, deals, marketing spend, door scanning and settlement. That work used to live in spreadsheets and inboxes. We replace it with software, and with AI agents that do the admin. We are hiring one engineer to lead that product. You decide what to build, you ship it, and you own the result. Gotobeat will grow fast over the next twelve months, and this is the surface where that growth happens.
About Gotobeat
Gotobeat builds software for live music: for the artists who play, the venues that host and the promoters who book. We help emerging artists earn more, venues fill more seats and promoters spend less time on admin. The platform covers planning, promotion, ticketing and post-show settlement. It runs on an AWS serverless stack, Python data pipelines and LLM agents.
What you'll do
- 35% Own the promoter dashboard and the artist tools end to end: events, ticketing, deals, settlement and reporting, on our Remix/React and AWS serverless stack.
- 20% Lead the product. You set the roadmap, you ship every week and you report the numbers.
- 20% Build the AI agents that do the admin: draft the announcement, chase the tech spec, reconcile the numbers. That covers prompt design, tool definitions, evaluation and the approval step before a write.
- 15% Turn the data (ticketing, streaming, social and ad spend) into decisions a promoter can act on the same day.
- 10% Sit with promoters, watch them work, and delete the steps they never needed.
You'll be successful here if you have
- Strong computer-science fundamentals and substantial experience of shipping products that professionals use to run their business.
- Experience of building a product on your own: from an empty repo to users, with nobody else writing the tickets.
- Deep TypeScript and React skills, with Remix, Next.js or an equivalent SSR framework in production.
- Backend depth: event-driven services, AWS serverless (Lambda, EventBridge, DynamoDB, Step Functions) and data models that hold up under a real business.
- Practical LLM engineering: tool use, agent loops, retrieval and evaluation, and a clear view of when an agent must ask before it writes.
- A love of live music. You understand what a promoter risks when they book a show.
- Product judgement for dense professional interfaces. You know when a table beats a chart, and when a confirmation beats a toast.
Nice to have
- Experience at a music company, for example a ticketing platform or a streaming service.
- Experience with LLM orchestration and the MCP tool protocol.
- Python for data pipelines, forecasting or ML ops.
- Experience with SST, CDK or another infrastructure-as-code framework.
How we work
- Remote-first, with quarterly in-person hack weeks in London.
- A small, senior team with no management layers and a lot of autonomy.
- One-week sprints, async communication and fast decisions.
- We value clean code, continuous learning and doing right by artists.
Benefits
- Competitive salary, set by experience, plus equity.
- Fully remote, with the hours that suit you.
- We engage you as an employee or as a contractor, according to the country where you live.
- Unlimited paid holiday, plus local public holidays.
- Free gig tickets and backstage passes to all Gotobeat shows.
Hiring process
- Intro chat (30 min): the role, the music and whether we make sense to each other.
- Technical deep dive (90 min): an architecture discussion and live pairing on a realistic problem. No LeetCode.
- Founders' chat (30 min): vision, values and any remaining questions.
Total time from first call to offer: about two weeks.
