About the Role
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.
This position sits at the heart of Spotify’s Content Platform, responsible for the systems that define, structure, and govern 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.
