Unfortunately, the founders didn't manage to secure another round of investment and decided to shutdown the business in October 2022, which led me to look for new opportunities as fast as possible, to release them from financial stress.

Wavelancer

• Musicians

• Co-Founder and Lead Developer

  • Oct 2015 - Oct 2017

  Wavelancer mission was to democratize music production by allowing an artist to share pieces of their creation on our platform and get immediate feedback from the community. They can then write stories and interact with the audience throughout the creation process. As lead developer, I was responsible with the technology choice, design and implementation of the entire platform. The backend was comprised of an API Server (Express.JS) powered by MongoDB as storage and a Web Worker responsible for some heavy lifting (image compression, cron jobs, etc). The communication between the two was done via message queues. Fun fact: I became the initial author of @types/jackrabbit package while working on this. The Frontend was built using Angular.JS and Bootstrap as the UI library. Show less
