What's the salary range of this opportunity? Considered Berlin ops in the past but the companies are notoriously cheap. Always need to establish upfront if the company is one of the rare Berlin companies offering internationally competitive packages or another trying to get by offering experienced devs 50k EUR with .1%-.2% equity, fruit, free drinks, and a foosball table.

  I can't speak openly about the specifics, but we're definitely not in the latter category.

I can vouch that working at soundcloud has been an excellent experience! It's truly an opportunity to work with such thoughtful, talented, and driven colleagues. Never a dull moment. We are also hiring iOS developers - ping me for details so I can refer you for iOS. https://twitter.com/meghafon https://twitter.com/meghafon or https://www.linkedin.com/in/meghaphone https://www.linkedin.com/in/meghaphone

Hey aaron, I'm an early bird soundcloud user and very interested in working for your company but don't have a lot of scala knowledge. Just did some lessons at home and some research at my last job including spark, prediction.io and the finagle stack. Does it make sense to apply to this job?
