About Linkfire
This vacancy is provided by Copenhagen Capacity.
We’re a passionate team of music techies on a mission to make listening easier for fans, labels and artists. The music industry is transforming. Music consumption is fragmented and distributed across many different platforms and services. Physical sales are going down. Legal downloads and in particular streaming are gaining momentum. The transformation will continue and the years to come will be very interesting.
We want to contribute to the transformation by bringing music and fans closer. Not inside music services, but outside where fans and artists engage. Our approach is to index digital music across music services and provide smart links that routes fans directly to the music regardless of their location or which player or platform they use.
It’s complex. We make it simple.
