Join Spotify as a Backend Engineer II
Spotify is seeking a talented Backend Engineer to join the Moonlight team within the Awareness & Acquisition studio. Our mission is to create in-app experiences that give strategic audiences more reasons to talk about Spotify with their friends, family, and other fans. We strive to fulfill this mission by building 0-to-1 features according to three strategic pillars: audio identity, time-sensitive moments, and fandom.
What You'll Do
- Collaborate with engineers, product managers, designers, and data scientists to build end-to-end features for millions of users.
- Architect, develop, and operate Java services following good design and development practices.
- Engage in and improve the whole lifecycle for backend services - from inception and design, through deployment, operation, and optimization.
- Participate in evolving the team’s technical strategy and product roadmap.
- Drive forward technical initiatives, starting within your team and scaling them across Spotify.
- Work on what you want during regular hack days and annual hack weeks.
Who You Are
- You have an intermediate to advanced understanding of object-oriented programming concepts and architecture patterns.
- You have proven experience designing, implementing, and scaling cloud-native software components. Familiarity with providers like AWS or GCP is a plus.
- You enjoy working collaboratively on a full-stack team, using agile processes to deliver a project in incremental phases.
- You solve problems methodically and can investigate issues in complex systems.
- You care about quality, delivering high-quality products and supporting others to maintain a high standard.
- You enjoy learning as well as teaching others. You are passionate about your work, pursuing the goals of the team and, ultimately, the Spotify mission - "giving a million creative artists the opportunity to live off their art and billions of fans the opportunity to enjoy and be inspired by it."
Where You'll Be
- We are a distributed workforce enabling our band members to find a work mode that is best for them!
- Where in the world? For this role, it can be anywhere in the North America region in which we have a work location.
- Prefer to work in an office environment? Prefer to work from home instead? Not a problem! We have plenty of options for your working preferences.
- Working hours? We operate within the Eastern Standard time zone for collaboration.
