Locusic – Technical Partner/Co-founder (Des Moines) – Startup Job! 

Locusic is an internet radio service that lets users discover local music and gives unsigned bands airplay in their local community.

This will be for a portion of equity (TBD). This individual will work around 20 hours per week before going full time around when Locusic launches. Although we won’t keep track of hours – it will be a results-oriented atmosphere.

Front-end experience is more important than back-end, but both would be preferred as well as experience working on a reasonably large project (thousands of users).

Based in Des Moines but open on location.

Qualities:

  • very smart
  • work well in a team (not shy about giving input, but also must take direction well when a decision is made)
  • ambitious, self-motivated, willing/eager to learn new things quickly, work long hours as needed (your basic startup-minded person)
  • appreciate music

Technical capabilities – here’s the stuff we’ll be using at Locusic. These are all learnable – the candidate doesn’t need to be an expert in all of these. But if they are, all the better.

  • Microsoft .NET 4.0 (VS 2010)
  • ASP.NET MVC 3 with Razor view engine
  • javascript/jQuery
  • html
  • CSS
  • SQL Server 2008
  • MS Server 2008 and IIS

Bonuses:

  • We’ll have a Single Page Interface (SPI) design, so any experience/knowledge of that would be good.
  • Amazon S3 and Cloudfront (or other CDN experience)
  • MP3 file manipulation – probably using LAME and/or MP3Gain
  • Web farms or high-availability
  • Google maps integration/mashups
  • Twilio
