Job Description

Spotify is looking for Machine Learning Engineers to join our team. You will work on a variety of problems such as personalisation, targeting, optimisation and similar. Being a part of a team, you will come up with new and interesting hypotheses, test them, and scale them up to massive data sets, so that your algorithms and models can be used to improve critical components in the Spotify products.

* Run experiments to understand the value of your approaches


* Collaborate with a cross-functional agile team spanning design, data science, product management and engineering.



Who you are

* You have a strong background in machine learning, data and backend.


* You have experience building data pipelines and are self-sufficient in getting the data you need to build and evaluate your models, using tools like Apache Beam / Scio.


* You have hands-on experience implementing production machine learning systems at scale in Java, Scala, Python, or similar languages.


* Experience with pyTorch, TensorFlow, or Google Cloud Platform is a plus.


* You care about agile software processes, data-driven development, reliability, and disciplined experimentation


* You have experience and passion for mentoring and encouraging collaborative teams.
