Boiler Room | London | Web Developer | full time, ONSITE
Boiler Room is the world’s leading community of underground music fans. We live-stream DJ sets from underground music hubs such as London, Berlin, New York, Paris, LA and many others to music lovers all over the world. It started as a webcam taped to a warehouse wall in East London - in five years it has grown to become the online home of underground music, and also a complex broadcasting and editorial platform in its own right.
Our website hasn’t caught up with this huge expansion - it currently runs on WordPress and is in sore need of a complete overhaul. We’re in the process of totally redesigning it, giving us the opportunity to choose the perfect tech stack. You’ll be an essential part of a dev team currently consisting of 2 developers and 2 designers. You ideally have strong opinions about how web development should be done in 2015, and you should be able to come up with and implement new ideas for consuming &amp; sharing online music experiences.
Going forward, we have some really exciting ideas around peer-to-peer audio and video streaming. We have upwards of a million pageviews on our site a month, and that’s not including the hundreds of millions of views that our videos have accumulated on YouTube and Dailymotion.
(...on top of that you’ll of course be able to go to &amp; invite your friends to our exclusive parties being live-streamed on the site!)
If this sounds like your kind of jam, give me a shout on harry.l+REDACTED_EMAIL!
