Fullstack Engineer - Podcast

The Podcast Mission develops strategies and builds products that serve creators and listeners. As the #1 podcast platform in the world, we own the tools and features that give creators a great experience when producing, distributing, and monetizing their content while growing and engaging with their audience.

We are a creator experience team within the Podcast Mission. Creators and publishers rely on us to distribute and manage their content across Spotify and beyond. We build the surfaces they interact with every day and the backend services and APIs that power them, with a focus on making the entire publishing and content management experiences rock solid, fast, and responsive at scale.

We are looking for an engineer to help build and improve the tools creators use to manage and share their content. You'll primarily focus on building scalable backend services and APIs, with opportunities to contribute to the frontend. You'll collaborate closely with product and design to deliver experiences that serve creators worldwide.
