About You

You are a thoughtful and experienced engineer who enjoys solving complex backend and data-processing problems. You care about quality, but you are pragmatic enough to know when to move quickly and when to slow down and get the foundations right.

You are comfortable taking ownership of important technical work, but you also value collaboration and shared understanding. You enjoy working with other engineers, product managers, QA specialists and operational teams to make sure what gets built is useful, reliable and maintainable.

You do not need prior music industry experience, but you should be interested in working on technology that supports independent labels, distributors, publishers and rights-holders. You will be joining a team that values trust, communication, technical curiosity and continuous improvement.

At Curve, you will have the opportunity to work on meaningful, technically challenging systems at the heart of the independent music industry. Our platform supports complex royalty processing, financial data transformation and reporting workflows for a growing global client base. You will join a growing technology team with a strong focus on engineering quality, collaboration and scalable delivery. This role offers the chance to influence architecture, improve core platform capabilities, and contribute directly to systems that make a real difference for our clients and the creators they represent.
