Founded in 2001, Resident Advisor (RA) is one of the world's longest-running music media brands and a cornerstone of the dance, electronic and DJ ecosystem. The site's audience of over 6 million monthly users is drawn in by a combination of news, editorial, club listings and ticketing, RA-branded events at venues and festivals worldwide, original films and a weekly mix series that has run for 18 years.

Purpose Of The Role

We are looking for a full-stack senior-level developer to join our web development team. We are currently around ten developers, including our dedicated apps team.

Our main tech stack consists of a next.js frontend, and a GraphQL backend. We use React on the frontend and a mixture of node and C# on the backend. We also use elasticsearch, redis and deploy to Kubernetes in the cloud, using managed services and infrastructure-as-code whenever possible.

Your role will involve working in a small agile team with otherå talented full stack developers of a range of abilities and a dedicated product manager. We try to keep our management structure flat and you will have a chance to make meaningful contributions to how we implement features and the technology choices we make.

Below is a list of required and desired skills. Experience with as much of it is desirable, but above all we look for talented people who have a generally good understanding of development and the desire and ability to learn.

If you have a passion for electronic music and would like to use your development skills to work on one of the most influential websites in the industry, then we’d like to hear from you.
