What the job involves

As a Software Engineer, you will be a key member of our development team, responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining the core features of our social music app. Your proficiency in React Native and Laravel will be vital in creating an engaging and interactive platform.
Our office is in Exeter, Devon. This role can be fully remote or hybrid with coming to the Exeter office as often as you choose

Our take

These days, finding new music is no easy task. Despite having unparalleled access to millions of artists through mobile apps, the algorithms used by big-name players such as Spotify are notoriously repetitive, more often than not replaying the same songs users have heard rather than offering them anything new.

Disco is setting out to change this, with a social music discovery app that empowers users to discover new music directly from other listeners. Basically, it enables music-lovers to see and hear what others are listening to, and through this, discover new music for themselves. The company is in its early stages, having been awarded seed funding in 2024, but it's certainly an intriguing concept, and we are eager to see how the "Instagram for music" app is received at launch.
