spotify - Senior Engineering Manager - Information Technology
Requirements
• You have 8+ years of engineering experience and experience leading Engineering Managers across multiple teams. • You have led engineering organisations at scale and can demonstrate how the technical strategies you’ve shaped have influenced meaningful outcomes. • You bring experience with enterprise technology such as identity and access, SaaS platforms, endpoint management, workplace technology, architecture, or related systems, and can engage credibly in technical decisions across these areas. • You have improved engineering practices across multiple teams and know how to balance developer productivity, operational excellence, reliability, and sustainable technical investment. • You have developed Engineering Managers into stronger leaders and can point to meaningful growth and progression within the teams you’ve led. • You’re excited about how AI is changing the way people and engineering organisations work and have practical experience applying AI tooling or related technologies. • You focus performance conversations on impact rather than activity and can assess contributions across teams producing different kinds of outcomes. • You’re a strategic thinker who can set direction across a broad organisation while staying close enough to the work to contribute when needed. • You communicate complex technical and strategic ideas clearly, build inclusion into how you lead, and can make thoughtful decisions when working through ambiguity. • ## Where You'll Be • This role is based in London or Stockholm. • 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.
Responsibilities
• Lead and develop Engineering Managers across multiple teams, supporting their growth while creating clarity around outcomes and engineering excellence. • Set and communicate engineering strategy across the studio, ensuring teams have clear technical direction aligned with IT’s mandate and Spotify’s business needs. • Strengthen technical judgment across the Engineering Manager group, challenging processes that no longer add value and creating more space for architecture, quality, and team capability. • Identify patterns and opportunities across teams and drive improvements in engineering practice, operational health, reliability, and ways of working. • Establish and evolve engineering best practices across the studio, helping teams share knowledge and consistently improve how we build and operate technology. • Champion reliability, security, compliance, and privacy as fundamental parts of engineering decision-making. • Shape how AI is used across the company, both through the tools our squads build and how our engineers work day to day. • Partner with studio and alliance leadership, procurement, legal, engineering counterparts, and teams across Spotify to make thoughtful technical investments and solve meaningful business problems.
