Senior Product Designer - Audiobooks and Gated Content

In the past few months, Spotify announced two new feature sets to the world: Paid Subscriptions, which allows any podcaster to put content behind paywalls, and Spotify Open Access, which allows users to listen on Spotify to content that is paid for on third party sites and services. Both of these are in service of a much broader mission: enabling everyone to listen to all of the paid audio that exists in the world on Spotify, from podcasts to audiobooks and beyond. In the coming years, Spotify will redefine what it means for creators to monetize their work, as well as how listeners discover and gain access to that paid content. This is an exceptionally exciting and impactful new opportunity for Spotify, and will help craft the platform for years to come.

As we introduce our users to paid/gated content to Spotify, there are essential product design considerations that touch across every part of the user experience, from how our partners submit their content, to how the content is discovered, recommended, unlocked and consumed on platform. We are looking for a Senior Product Designer to join the Audiobooks & Gated Content team to work closely with our growing product team to ensure we build a cohesive and user-centric experience in the paid content space. Elegantly integrate it into the overall Spotify user experience. Scope includes Paid Subscriptions, Spotify Open Access, and Audiobooks. This is a highly cross functional role that will work closely with other organizations to bridge the gap between creation, discovery, and consumption experiences.

Spotify is an equal opportunity employer. You are welcome at Spotify for who you are, no matter where you come from, what you look like, or what’s playing in your headphones. Our platform is for everyone, and so is our workplace. The more voices we have represented and amplified in our business, the more we will all thrive, contribute, and be forward-thinking! So bring us your personal experience, your perspectives, and your background. It’s in our differences that we will find the power to keep revolutionizing the way the world listens.
