Job Title: Backend Engineer

Salary: £60k-£100k + Equity

Company Description: Mozart AI - VC-backed Generative Audio Workstation

Job Description:
Join a talent-dense team of eight building the future of music creation. As a Backend Engineer, you will architect the foundation for millions of users, transitioning from NoSQL to Postgres while scaling media pipelines and payments. This is a high-ownership role for a systems-thinker ready to ship relentlessly in a fast-growing startup.

Location: London, UK

Why this role is remarkable:

  • Work at the intersection of AI and creativity on a product used by 100k+ creators, including producers for A$AP Rocky and Avicii.

  • Backed by $7M+ from top-tier investors including Balderton Capital and the founders of Eventbrite and Frame.io.

  • High-impact ownership of critical infrastructure, from database migrations to real-time collaboration primitives in a rapidly scaling environment.

What you will do:

  • Lead the end-to-end migration from non-relational to relational databases, ensuring zero-data-loss cutovers and canonical schema design.

  • Own the payments and entitlements backbone using Stripe and RevenueCat to handle complex subscription lifecycles and cross-platform parity.

  • Architect high-concurrency REST APIs and reliable media processing pipelines with global delivery via CDN caching and signed URLs.

The ideal candidate:

  • Has 3-5 years of experience with Node.js/TypeScript and deep expertise in relational SQL schema design and migrations.

  • Demonstrates a production-ownership mindset with strong instincts for CI/CD, observability, and graceful degradation in high-traffic environments.

  • Thrives in a high-velocity startup culture, acting as a "specialist generalist" who cares deeply about outcomes after the code is merged.

We never post fake jobs
This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.
Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.
We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.
Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
