About this role
We design Spotify’s consumer experience—end to end, moment to moment, across every screen, platform, and partner integration.

We ensure content is structured, evaluated, and delivered reliably at global scale, powered by deep content understanding.

The Product Insights team works across the full content lifecycle to improve decision-making, improve our catalog understanding and ensure one of the world’s largest content catalogs is safe and engaging.
