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.
The Content Platform team powers the full lifecycle of content across music, podcasts, audiobooks, and emerging formats at Spotify. We ensure that everything from licensed catalog to user-generated content is trusted, safe, and high quality for millions of listeners worldwide. Our systems are responsible for how content is ingested, understood, enriched, governed, and distributed across the platform. As the scale and diversity of content continues to grow, driven by advances in AI and new creation tools—we’re investing in systems that ensure content remains safe, compliant, and high quality.
We’re seeking a Senior Staff Machine Learning Engineer to build and scale ML systems that power safety, policy enforcement, and compliance across Spotify. In this role, you’ll shape how automated systems evaluate and act on content—ensuring decisions are consistent, explainable, and reliable at global scale.
