Software Engineer
We're looking for a Software Engineer focused on designing and building scalable technical solutions. This executive role requires 9+ years of relevant experience.
Who We Are
UnitedMasters is building the world’s most powerful marketplace connecting artists, brands, and fans—empowering over 1.5M independent artists to earn, grow, and own their future. We’ve reinvented music distribution by putting artists first: enabling emerging creators to distribute directly to DSPs while maintaining ownership of their masters and up to 100% of royalties.
Our team is a diverse group of engineers, designers, product thinkers, and storytellers united by a shared mission to help artists succeed on their own terms. We combine deep expertise in technology, music, and culture to build products that unlock opportunity for creators everywhere. With a collaborative, creator-led mindset, we work closely with Translation, our in-house creative agency—to drive innovation at the intersection of culture and tech.
Backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Alphabet (Google), Apple, and Disney, we are scaling rapidly across our B2C subscription business and Indie Label B2B platform .
What’s the Role?
UnitedMasters is seeking a Vice President of Engineering to lead and scale an engineering organization across backend, mobile (iOS/Android), web, data, QA, DevOps. This leader will drive the architectural vision, delivery excellence, and technical culture behind our consumer subscription products and our growing B2B indie label business.
A core mandate of this role is leveraging AI to enhance both artist experience and engineering productivity . You will champion AI-driven personalization, artist tools, recommendations, and automation while also deploying AI-enabled development tooling, test automation, and ML-driven operations to improve engineering velocity and quality.
This is a hands-on, build-it-from-the-ground-up mandate. A top first-year priority is establishing UnitedMasters' “paved path” for agentic software development: defining the agentic-development methodology, making the core architecture and tooling decisions, setting context and documentation standards, standing up the eval and safety framework, coaching engineers through adoption, and demonstrating measurable developer-productivity gains. We're looking for someone who has personally built these capabilities, not sponsored or inherited them from a central platform team.
This role is ideal for a systems-level thinker, an inspiring people leader, and an operator who thrives in a fast-moving, culture-driven environment.
