Cutting Edge Music Tech - On-Demand Vinyl Records
We are seeking a Robotics Software Engineer to help us redefine the physical and digital music industry. We've invented a new technology to produce on-demand vinyl records and built a web platform for music creators to create and sell their products worldwide via our store at zero cost. We partner with leading record labels, streaming services, digital providers, distributors, and iconic global artists to build a global solution for physical media, but most importantly, we give small and emerging artists frictionless access to offer vinyl and CDs to their fans through our innovative solution and planned production/fulfilment centres in Europe, the USA, and Asia.
The vinyl market has grown over 20% yearly for the last 16 years, and CDs are growing again for the first time in two decades. By 2030, there will be nearly 200 million music creators worldwide (with AI accelerating this even further). Most would love to have their music on vinyl or CD for friends, family, and fans, many would happily buy a record for around $30 if accessible without high costs or minimums, which our scalable on-demand tech makes possible. elasticStage delivers easy, affordable access to this booming opportunity.
We are looking for a motivated and results-driven Robotics Software Engineer to join our dynamic Engineering team. In this role, you will take the lead on designing, developing, and deploying innovative robotic systems that enhance and transform production processes. You will be hands-on across the full lifecycle, from initial concept and prototyping, through to testing, integration, and commissioning, ensuring solutions are both practical and cutting-edge.
This is an exciting opportunity for an engineer who thrives on solving complex challenges, driving projects independently, and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to bring ideas into reality.
