Senior Data Analytics Engineer
What we do…
We want to make music fun again. No more wading through the Internet trying to find out what the new hits are, or to listen to an old favorite song again – and no more managing thousands of MP3s you stopped listening to years ago. Instead we’re putting together the best ways to discover, collect, share and play music in one, great product that’s available on your computer, your phone and in your home.
Who we are…
Rdio was founded in 2009 by Janus Friis with Niklas Zennström, the founders of Skype.
We’re based in Potrero Hill area of San Francisco. We’re funded by Atomico, as well as Janus Friis, Mangrove Capital Partners and Skype.
What’s it like here…
We’re lean and mean. Fewer than 50 people cr! eate and maintain Rdio on the web and desktop, Sonos, iPhone, Android, BlackBerry and Windows Phone 7 (and even more platforms are coming). That means you'll spend your time on apps and features that are carefully designed to create lasting value for our customers, and not in endless meetings.
We’re friendly and relaxed. We like to avoid frantic code-writing and design sprints by planning better and more carefully choosing what to work on. While the occasional all-nighter has happened, they're the exception, not the rule.
We’re multi-lingual. Python, Java, Objective-C, C#, JavaScript and Erlang are some of the dialects spoken, but we really want to use whatever suits the job, not make the job suit the language. On the web, audio streaming logic is handled by Flash, while the front-end is all HTML/CSS. On other platforms, we do native front-ends and audio.
The kind of stuff you'll be do! ing…
- Design and impleme! ntation of features for our realtime analytics platform, including our custom NoSQL data store backing it.
- Code base is in Erlang, however Erlang experience is not a requirement, you can learn it on the job.
- Work on general site performance, reliability, and scaling.
- Making architectural decisions and evaluating new technologies for the above.
The kind of experience we expect:
- 5+ years software development experience
- Experience with SQL/relational databases
- Fluency in a high level language, e.g. Python or Ruby
Bonus experience:
- Experience with designing and building distributed systems
- Erlang coding and deployment
- Fluency in C or C++
- Experience with NoSQL systems
We’re a startup, but our salaries are all grow! n-up. In addition, we have comprehensive health coverage (medical and dental), a 401k, and you will receive equity so you’re in a good position to enjoy Rdio’s future successes.
