Have you got the skills and talent and creativity to build a better online radio service than Pandora or Slacker?  If so, we invite you to join our ten-person company that is revolutionizing the field of online radio!

AccuRadio has been America’s fastest-growing online radio service for the past 23 consecutive months* and is one of the very few profitable firms in the world in the field of online audio. Uniquely targeting the 25-to-64 age group listening at work, AccuRadio offers over 975 personalizable channels of music, spanning over 60 genres, with a global audience of over a million monthly unique users.

Candidate would be actively involved in the management of the front-end and back-end of a popular online media service, helping maintain both a website and API, along with various mobile apps (plus Roku, Sonos, and Alexa support), and working with a relatively large existing codebase. 

The role primarily involves working with a team of two other skilled developers on HTML/JavaScript development, Python development, Linux server admin, and NoSQL database management. 

The ideal candidate will have a strong interest in music and other forms of streaming audio.

This role requires experience in several of the following areas:

• Python
• NoSQL databases (MongoDB)
• Linux server management (RedHat/CentOS)
• Python web frameworks (Django)
• CDN management (CloudFront)
• Nginx/uwsgi
• HTML5 (audio/media)
• CSS
• Git

Ideal candidates would also have some experience in some of the following areas:

• iOS development (Objective-C or Swift)
• Android development (Java)
• Google BigQuery
• XML/VAST
• Design skills (web graphics, sprites, etc.)
• Flash ActionScript
• GitHub
• Google Analytics
• General data analytics/analysis
• Helping recruit and manage a staff of developers

Candidates should be creative, adaptable, and ready to take on unexpected situations and new challenges and opportunities as we continue to build and grow our world-class online radio brand.
