We design Spotify’s consumer experience—end to end, moment to moment, across every screen, platform, and partner integration. Our mission is to make listening feel effortless, personal, and joyful for billions of users around the world. That means turning complexity into clarity across hundreds of touchpoints—from our mobile and desktop apps to the smart speakers, TVs, cars, and integrations where Spotify shows up every day. If it touches a consumer, we shape it. We bring deep insight into human behavior, design, and technology to craft experiences that feel intuitive, expressive, and unmistakably Spotify.
Delivering the best Spotify experience possible. To as many people as possible. In as many moments as possible. That’s what the Experience Mission is all about. We use our deep understanding of consumer expectations to enrich the lives of millions of users around the world, bringing the music, audio, and video they love to the devices, apps, and platforms they use every day.
This position sits at the heart of Spotify’s Content Platform, responsible for the systems that define, structure, and govern all content across the platform. Our mission is to provide a trusted, consistent source of truth so content can be reliably managed and reused across every Spotify experience. We build and operate the core systems and workflows that ensure content is accurate, complete, and available; from APIs and life cycle orchestration through to content quality and integrity.
As Spotify’s content ecosystem continues to grow in scale and complexity — across new formats, use cases, and regulatory environments — this domain plays a critical role in ensuring we scale intentionally while maintaining the trust and quality our users and creators expect.
We’re now seeking a Director of Engineering to lead this domain — shaping its technical direction, developing teams, and evolving the systems that underpin Spotify’s global content platform.
