ML Engineer

Work with other senior and staff engineers on machine learning initiatives from ideation and prototyping through experimentation, deployment, and large-scale productionization.

Design, develop, and deploy machine learning systems that operate across hundreds of millions of content signals using both real-time and batch processing architectures.

Advance Spotify's capabilities in natural language understanding, multimodal AI, and content intelligence.

Build and evaluate LLM-powered solutions using modern prompting techniques, retrieval systems, and advanced model orchestration approaches.

Define rigorous evaluation methodologies including golden datasets, precision and recall frameworks, offline benchmarking, and online experimentation.

Partner closely with Product Managers, Engineering Managers, Staff Engineers, and Data Scientists to influence technical strategy and roadmap decisions.

About the position The Euler squad sits within the Enrichment & Content Intelligence product area and is focused on helping Spotify better understand audio, text, and visual content through machine learning. The team develops technologies that power experiences across Spotify including AI and spam detection, kids content classification, entity linking and creation, and more. Working at the intersection of large-scale machine learning and product innovation, the squad partners closely with Product, Engineering, and Data Science teams to build intelligent systems that improve how users experience content across the platform.
