Description
At Spotify, our data platform powers the insights behind 600+ million Monthly Active Users and supports over 8,000 employees worldwide. Processing over 2 petabytes of data daily, it’s the backbone of our mission to bring audio to the world. Without it, the music doesn’t play.
Imagine starting your day with Spotify, eager to dive into your refreshed Daylist, only to find it’s stuck in yesterday. That’s the kind of experience we strive to prevent, and you’ll help make sure we deliver on that promise.
We’re looking for a Backend Engineer to join our Data Quality and Observability team. You’ll work on innovative tools and scalable systems that empower data practitioners and developers to collaborate effectively, ensuring reliability and accuracy across Spotify’s data platform. Whether it’s building backend services, optimizing pipelines, or supporting teams in delivering insights, your contributions will directly impact the way the world experiences audio.
What You'll Do
- Build and maintain backend services and data pipelines used by thousands of engineers and data practitioners.
- Participate in scaling systems while collaborating with teammates, stakeholders, and leaders.
- Gain hands-on experience in understanding user workflows to create tools that improve data quality, observability and reliability.
- Engage in hack days, hack weeks, and community events to learn, share, and grow.
- Contribute to a team culture that values respect, collaboration, and playfulness.
- Join a company that values innovation, iteration, and inclusivity, providing reasonable accommodations for those who need them.
Who You Are
- You enjoy breaking down complex technical problems and iterating quickly, taking ownership from ideation to production.
- Your skills include Java, and a strong understanding of systems design, data structures, and algorithms.
- Bonus: Experience with Scala or collaborating with data engineers to build impactful tools and pipelines.
- You are curious and customer-focused, excited to work closely with internal teams and open-source communities to build reliable solutions.
- You thrive in an environment where engineers are empowered to solve meaningful problems with autonomy.
Where You'll Be
- This role is based in Toronto, CA.
- We offer you the flexibility to work where you work best! There will be some in person meetings, but still allows for flexibility to work from home.
