Fullstack Engineer – Platform Developer Experience

Spotify • Full-time • New York, NY • 2d ago

We’re looking for a Fullstack Engineer to join our Platform Developer Experience team. This group is passionate about building the best possible developer experience for Spotifiers and thousands of developers around the world.

You’ll work on products used by other engineers every day — improving usability, reliability, and the overall experience of building at Spotify. If you’re excited about the role AI can play in shaping modern developer workflows and want to help make that experience thoughtful, safe, and scalable, this could be a great fit.

What You'll Do

Help define and deliver Spotify’s AI developer experience by authoring and evolving agent context
Contribute to skills and workflows that make agent behavior more reliable, predictable, and useful in production environments
Work on context services built on modern model-to-tool protocols (e.g., MCP) to support AI-driven systems.
Build and improve the TechDocs platform experience, including its supporting services and tooling (e.g., MkDocs-based build containers and the documentation-serving backend proxy)
Build and operate developer tooling that is easy to adopt, including CLI-driven onboarding
Debug and resolve issues across the stack, from local developer environments to CI pipelines, containerized builds, and cloud-hosted services
Take operational responsibility for services and tooling owned by the team, which may include participating in an on-call rotation
Collaborate with engineers and stakeholders across Spotify to understand pain points and deliver improvements that scale across teams
Promote sound engineering practices such as testing, incremental rollouts, reliability, and clear documentation

Who You Are

1+ years of experience working with TypeScript and Node.
Exposure to building or integrating LLM-powered coding agents, including tool use, planning loops, and multi-step workflows.
Familiarity with search design patterns (e.g., vector search systems, elasticsearch, indexing strategies)
Experience designing and operating distributed systems, and deploying services using containerized tooling (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
Experience working with containerized tooling
Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience shipping well-scoped features end-to-end
Clear written communication skills and the ability to create structured, actionable documentation

You Might Also Have:
Experience building tools or platforms used by other engineers.
Familiarity with developer portals, plugins, or internal platform tooling.
Experience with MkDocs or docs-as-code workflows.
Exposure to GCP services related to artifact storage or content delivery.
Experience working with AI-assisted tooling, agent frameworks, or deterministic tool integrations.
