Have you ever thought about the music in cafes and stores, who chooses it and why? You may not have heard of Soundtrack Your Brand but you have probably heard their playlists. Soundtrack Your Brand is the leading company in music streaming for businesses and financially supported by Spotify. As a Software Engineer you will get to work in an autonomous and skilled team with a modern tech stack 100% based on Google Cloud.

About Soundtrack your Brand

Soundtrack Your Brand enables both enterprise and smaller business customers, like McDonalds all the way down to that small coffee place on the corner, to access the power of music to build their brands. After building an impressive customer base in the Nordic region with the backing of Spotify they have continued to expand their international presence and are currently live in over 70+ countries, with half of their customers in the US. The first major step in breaking loose from their previous collaboration with Spotify was the recent development and release of their own music catalogue with 26 million tracks for the use of businesses (a figure that can be compared with the approximately 30-35 million tracks that Spotify have in their catalogue).

Playing music in businesses is very different from playing music at home. Businesses need a vast selection of music that's continually updated. And the music itself profoundly influence consumers' experience and behaviour, which they have repeatedly proven in their research. As thought leaders in in-store music research they try to educate the world about the impact of music.

In total Soundtrack Your Brand has around 90 people working from their spacious and highly modern office (with great background music, of course) on Sveavägen in Stockholm. The development team consist of 30 very talented and humble engineers with previous experience from places like EA, Spotify, iZettle, Viaplay and Aftonbladet.
