You will set the product direction for shared capabilities, bringing teams together around common priorities to create listening experiences that work at scale for millions of users.
Responsibilities
- Collaborate with engineering leaders to evaluate technical trade-offs and guide decisions on performance, reliability, and scalability.
- Develop shared platform capabilities that enable consistent, high-quality experiences across Spotify’s products.

- Balance new product opportunities with technical improvements, such as system performance, simplification, and migrations.
- Use experimentation, prototypes, and feedback to test ideas and adapt approaches quickly.
- Build alignment across teams by clearly communicating priorities, dependencies, and trade-offs.
Requirements
- At least 5 years of product management experience, including work on technical platforms or shared systems supporting consumer products.
- Understanding of client and backend technologies, with the ability to connect technical decisions to user needs and business outcomes.
- Familiarity with mobile development for iOS or Android, including app performance, reliability, UI architecture, or design systems.
- Experience guiding products beyond launch, including managing technical debt and supporting evolving systems.
- Ability to evaluate technical trade-offs and make decisions on improving existing systems versus investing in new capabilities.
- Proficiency in using data, research, and experimentation to make product decisions, even when traditional A/B testing is not suitable.
