About the Job:
We’re looking for a self-motivated, team minded Senior Full-Stack Developer who wants to be part of the live-event space. You’ll work on the European side of our enterprise commerce platform for live events — a fancy way of saying a point of sale, inventory management and robust back-end reporting product offering.


You’ll get the opportunity to collaborate with our product and design teams to build new customer-driven features used at some of the world’s most popular touring acts, festivals and sporting events like Coachella, Bottlerock, Superbowl, Pokémon, PGA Championships, etc.

If you are a Developer who takes pride in seeing your handi-work out in the wild, used by millions, this is a role worth pursuing.

Our Tech Stack:
  • Front End: React Native, React, JavaScript
  • Backend: Ruby, Rails, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, CouchDb
  • Cloud Platform: AWS
  • Tools: GitHub, Sidekiq
What We’re Looking For:
  • Seasoned full-stack developer with 8+ years of experience.
  • Strong JavaScript fundamentals, with matching in-depth knowledge of modern React architecture (including hooks, state management, async actions).
  • User-focused mindset; knack for thinking like a fan and a customer, grounded in real-life scenarios
  • System-focused mindset; care about the impact your code has downstream (performance, reliability, scalability).
  • A reasonable level of obsession in wanting to solve problems, with a call-a-friend mentality to seek clarity and focus.
  • Experience with backend services and asynchronous job processing.
  • Experience with native layers on mobile devices.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Collaborate with product, design and QA to ensure our products and services meet our customer’s needs, are performant and reliable, and minimize unnecessary complexity.
  • Own the technical design for projects.
  • Architect services and systems using accepted design patterns that allow for iterative, autonomous development and future scaling.
  • Anticipate future use cases and make design decisions that minimize the cost of future changes.
  • Be considered the expert trouble-shooter within your domain of expertise: lead investigations within area of specialization while maintaining a strong sense of product impact
  • Actively identify opportunities and risks across products and teams, mentor junior developers, and drive best practices.
  • The usual dev-activities you’d come to expect like: guiding ongoing maintenance, team technical principles, documentation, managing tech debt, code reviews, component / integration testing … the list goes on …
Nice to Have:
  • Swift/Kotlin and Rails experience
  • Familiarity with GraphQL
  • Experience with front-end testing frameworks
