The Platform team creates the technology that enables Spotify to learn quickly and scale easily, enabling rapid growth in our users and our business around the globe. Spanning many disciplines, we work to make the business work, creating the infrastructure, tooling, frameworks, and capabilities needed to welcome a billion customers.

Our team builds Groove, a platform that helps thousands of employees plan, coordinate, and deliver work across Spotify. From initiative tracking to dependency management and collaborative planning, Groove helps teams stay aligned and execute with confidence.

We're a small, cross-functional engineering team focused on building thoughtful tools that reduce friction and help people do their best work. We move quickly, learn from user feedback, and continuously improve the experiences we build.

What You'll Do:

  • Build and evolve Groove, a fullstack platform that supports planning, collaboration, and execution across Spotify.
  • Design and deliver features including initiative tracking, planning workflows, and dependency management.
  • Work across the stack using React, TypeScript, Java, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, and Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) to build end-to-end solutions.
  • Partner closely with product managers and designers to understand user needs and create intuitive, effective experiences.
  • Ensure reliability through testing, monitoring, and continuous improvement in production.
  • Participate in an on-call rotation and help respond to production incidents when needed.
  • Improve the performance, scalability, and maintainability of frontend and backend systems.
  • Use AI-assisted development tools to improve productivity while maintaining ownership of quality, correctness, and outcomes.
  • Lead the design and delivery of complex, high-impact features across the stack.
  • Own problems end-to-end, from shaping ambiguous requirements through to production-ready solutions.
  • Help define and evolve architecture across frontend, backend, and infrastructure.
  • Mentor engineers and contribute to raising the technical bar across the team.

Who You Are:

  • You have 5+ years of experience building scalable fullstack applications in production environments.
  • You are comfortable working across frontend and backend technologies and understand how they fit together to create reliable products.
  • You have experience with APIs, distributed systems, and modern web application architecture.
  • You take ownership of the software you build, from implementation through production health and ongoing improvements.
  • You have experience designing systems and influencing technical direction.
  • You communicate clearly and effectively through documentation and collaboration in distributed teams.
  • You write clean, maintainable code that enables others to build with confidence.
  • You use AI-assisted development tools thoughtfully and validate outputs with sound engineering judgment.
  • You navigate ambiguity with confidence and make thoughtful trade-offs between speed, quality, and long-term maintainability.
  • You enjoy mentoring others, sharing knowledge, and helping teammates grow.
  • You are curious, proactive, and motivated by continuous learning and experimentation.

Where You'll Be:

    • This role is based in London or Stockholm.
