A little bit about our team:

This role is within the Sodatone team that builds an analytics platform that uses AI and machine learning to identify and evaluate emerging music talent. It leverages data from streaming services, social media, and other sources to help our A&R (Artist and Repertoire) teams identify emerging artists, track trends, and make informed decisions about talent scouting and artist development. In other words, you’ll be working on the product that helped identify artists like CYRIL, Teddy Swims, PinkPanthress, and more!
