Soundtrap is an easy-to-use audio creation studio under the umbrella of Spotify. It’s cloud-based, offers real-time collaboration, and works on many kinds of devices. Great musicians and artists - established or not - shouldn't have to be tech-savvy on audio engineering, so we are making it possible for almost anyone to be able to focus on their creativity and not the complexity that comes with many recordings and editing tools today.

Would you like to work on ideas to innovate the way people make music and podcasting? We are looking forward to welcoming a new creative problem solver to our team in Stockholm as a Senior Product Designer. You will be exploring new ways of crafting new experiences that make Soundtrap stand out - not only in the quality of the product - but making it the best collaborative music tool out there.

At Soundtrap, we put a strong emphasis on design and user experience, we believe that the design profession plays a vital role to build a successful product. As a Senior Product Designer, you will work collaboratively with designers, engineers, developers, researchers, business stakeholders, and product managers to be a part of the design process - from vision to measuring the real impact of your work.
