By joining us, you will help play an instrumental role in improving the experience of developers at our customer companies, in our fast-growing open-source community, and at Spotify internally. If you want to make a direct impact in helping Spotify become the industry leader in developer experience, this is the role for you.

• Promote sound engineering practices, drive work on technical strategy and roadmaps.
• Deliver high-impact and high-visibility projects with the fast-paced style of a startup, supported by the resources of a global company.
