MixRadio
MixRadio
MixRadio is a world-class music streaming service delivering music directly to listeners in 31 countries including China, India, USA, Mexico, Brazil, South Africa, UK and across Europe. Our listeners love that we make it easy for them to discover and enjoy music. Our ability to understand the musical tastes of each of our listeners and create unique, personalized mixes from our catalogue of 36 million songs puts us at the cutting edge of music services.
For the last three years we’ve been using Clojure to power our backend at MixRadio. We migrated from a Java platform to one where all new service development is done in Clojure. As of today we have more than 60 microservices written in Clojure. Find out more on our engineering blog.
We're always on the lookout for bright and talented engineers, check out our jobs page for more information on our Clojure and other development positions.
