Product Designer I - Core Experience

We design Spotify’s consumer experience—end to end, moment to moment, across every screen, platform, and partner integration. Our mission is to make listening feel effortless, personal, and joyful for billions of users around the world. That means turning complexity into clarity across hundreds of touchpoints—from our mobile and desktop apps to the smart speakers, TVs, cars, and integrations where Spotify shows up every day. If it touches a consumer, we shape it. We bring deep insight into human behavior, design, and technology to craft experiences that feel intuitive, expressive, and unmistakably Spotify.

You’ll join the Core Experience team — the group shaping how millions of listeners discover, explore, and engage with audio every day. We sit at the heart of Spotify’s mobile app, evolving the experiences people rely on daily. As a junior designer, you’ll work closely with experienced designers and cross-functional partners to improve existing features and bring thoughtful new ideas to life at scale.

What You'll Do

Collaborate closely with product managers, engineers, researchers, and marketers to bring cohesive, data-informed solutions to life. Partner closely with engineers, contributing directly to implementation when appropriate (e.g., lightweight PRs, design system updates, or interaction refinements). Translate user insights and product requirements into clear interaction and visual design decisions. Explore multiple ideas, incorporate feedback, and iterate toward high-quality outcomes. Design for iOS and Android, respecting native conventions while maintaining Spotify’s distinctive voice. Experiment with emerging AI capabilities to enhance user experiences and create rapid, interactive prototypes using AI-assisted tools and lightweight code to test ideas quickly. Contribute to design critiques and shared learning within the design community.
