Job description

Описание:

Core Experience shapes how millions of people discover, choose, and enjoy what to play on Spotify every day. Within Core Experience, our What to Play team builds the technology and shared capabilities that help Spotify deliver intuitive, reliable, and consistent listening experiences. We’re looking for a Senior Technical Product Manager to shape the systems behind these experiences, from content distribution and mobile app architecture to shared user interface capabilities.

Задачи:

Define the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for your area, connecting technical investments to listener needs and Spotify’s broader goals. Partner with engineering teams to explore technical solutions, evaluate trade‑offs, and guide decisions that improve product performance, reliability, and scalability. Develop shared platform capabilities that help teams build consistent, high‑quality experiences across Spotify. Improve the adoption and long‑term value of platform capabilities by gathering feedback, measuring outcomes, and supporting teams that use them. Balance new product opportunities with technical improvements, including system performance, quality, simplification, and platform migrations. Collaborate with Design, Data Science, and User Research to understand user needs, define success measures, and make informed product decisions. Use experimentation, prototypes, technical exploration, and feedback to test ideas, learn quickly, and adapt your approach. Build alignment across teams by communicating priorities, dependencies, and trade‑offs clearly, helping partners work toward shared outcomes.

Требования:

You have 5+ years of product management experience, including experience building or improving technical platforms, shared systems, or capabilities that support consumer products. You understand client and backend technologies and can work with engineers to connect technical decisions to user needs and business outcomes. You’re familiar with mobile development for iOS or Android, including areas such as app performance, reliability, user interface architecture, instrumentation, or design systems. You have experience guiding products or platforms beyond launch, improving adoption, managing technical debt, and supporting systems as needs evolve. You can evaluate technical trade‑offs and make thoughtful decisions about when to improve existing systems, simplify solutions, or invest in new capabilities. You use data, research, experimentation, and sound judgment to make product decisions, including when traditional A/B testing isn’t the right approach. You communicate complex ideas clearly, welcome different perspectives, and build strong relationships across engineering, design, and data teams. You’re comfortable navigating ambiguity, taking ownership of complex challenges, and adapting your approach as you learn.

Условия:

We offer you the flexibility to work where you work best! For this role, you can be within the EMEA region as long as we have a work location (excluding France due to on‑call restrictions). This team operates within the Central European and GMT time zone for collaboration.
