About Djoid
Djoid is a Berlin-based music curation platform built for professional DJs.
We are building the curation infrastructure for serious music curators, not DJ software for beginners, and not entertainment tools.
Instead of linear playlists, Djoid introduces visual, graph-based workflows and deep music models that help professionals understand, organize, and design music at scale.
Our focus is not “making DJing easier”, but raising the standard of music curation.
The Role
We are looking for a Curator-in-Residence to help define, articulate, and teach the philosophy of professional music curation around Djing with Djoid.
This is not a marketing role.
This is not an influencer role.
You will be the educational and cultural brand face and voice that explains how serious DJs think about music, preparation, and storytelling, with Djoid as the tool that supports that way of thinking.
You are not selling features.
You are setting standards.
What You’ll Do
- Own the curation narrative
Define and articulate what “music curation” means at a professional level
Help shape how Djoid talks about preparation, flow, chapters, energy, and story-telling with music
Contribute to positioning Djoid as a school of thought, not just a tool
- Record educational video content
Be the on-camera guide for:
Tutorials
Workflow walkthroughs
Concept explainers (e.g. preparing sets, building chapters, thinking in energy)
Speak calmly, precisely, and honestly, not salesy
Teach how DJs think, not just which buttons to click
3. Create editorial & long-form content
Contribute to or lead:
Blog articles
Guides
Essays
Case studies
Focus on depth, clarity, and usefulness, not SEO fluff
- Support product & UX alignment
Work closely with the founder and product team
Ensure language, tutorials, and features align with real curation logic
Help prevent feature-driven messaging disconnected from actual DJ workflows
- Represent the philosophy externally (selectively)
Collaborate with external educators or reviewers
Appear in interviews, panels, or educational content when relevant
Act as a credible reference point for the Djoid approach to curation
What This Role Is Not
❌ Not a growth marketer
❌ Not a social media manager
❌ Not an influencer or hype DJ
❌ Not a brand ambassador pushing talking points
This role exists to educate, not perform.
Who You Are
Must-have
10+ years experience as a DJ, music curator, or selector
Strong opinions about preparation, storytelling, and music flow
Comfortable explaining why things work, not just how
Calm, grounded presence on camera
Clear spoken English
Nice to have
Teaching, coaching, or workshop experience
Writing experience (articles, essays, guides)
Familiarity with DJ software ecosystems (Rekordbox, Serato, Traktor, etc.)
Background in electronic music scenes (techno, house, related underground cultures)
How to Apply
Please include:
A short introduction about your background
Links to any videos, talks, workshops, or writing (if available)
A brief note on how you approach music curation and set preparation
