Suno Senior/Staff Software Engineer at Suno to take technical ownership of Songkick product across backend, mobile app, data pipelines, and notifications. Lead integration of Songkick into Suno and influence roadmap and engineering practices.
Responsibilities
Suno is standing up an Artists & Creators pod, and our first major focus is Songkick.com — our newly acquired live music and ticketing product. We're hiring an early team to take technical ownership of Songkick within Suno across the stack: the backend, the website, the mobile app, the data pipelines, and the notification systems that power it. You'll report to the Songkick Engineering Manager and work closely with the Songkick General Manager, our Product Manager, and our Music teams to help define how this team tracks success and grows. Early on, the work is hands-on and diverse — understanding the existing system deeply, stabilizing it, and finding the integration points that make Songkick and Suno stronger together. Over time, this role has real influence over the roadmap, engineering best practices, and leaving a handprint on Suno's Artists & Creators engineering team.
