Bandcamp is a leading
independent music marketplace, and a subsidiary of Songtradr,
Inc.
- I was about the 20th employee at Bandcamp, and about the 10th
engineering hire. I helped scale the engineering team up to about 50
engineers before Bandcamp was acquired by Epic Games in 2022.
- As director, I manage and mentor ten engineers who comprise three
engineering teams. In the last year, we shipped major product releases
including Bandcamp Clubs, shared playlists, digital payments in
listening parties and a Shopify integration.
- As a manager, I personally led projects to comply with a variety of
compliance and legal issues, including compliance with the EU Digital
Services Act, the US INFORM Act, and shifting US marketplace tax rules.
Combined, these have mitigated over $100MM in potential
regulatory and tax liabilities on accelerated timelines. I also
led my team through 2 acquisitions, maintaining morale and ensuring the
continuity of the business.
- As an engineer, I built multiple payment systems, and I was one of
two engineers on the team that added credit card support to Bandcamp
(deployed with no downtime). More than a billion dollars of
artist payouts have been processed by code I wrote since
2016.
