responsibilities:

The Personalization (PZN) team makes deciding what to play next on Spotify easier and more enjoyable for every listener. We seek to understand the world of music, podcasts and audiobooks better than anyone else so that we can make great recommendations to every individual and keep the world listening. Every day, hundreds of millions of people all over the world use the products we build which include destinations like Home and Search as well as original playlists such as Made For You, Discover Weekly and Daily Mix. The SeshGen product area builds and runs the systems behind Spotify's generative and interactive listening experiences, including AI DJ, AI Playlist and personalized sessions. SeshGen owns over 1,000 backend services, and many of them are stable and in maintenance mode. We are building a dedicated contractor team to own the operation and maintenance of these services, so our product squads can focus on new features.

What You'll Do

Take over high-load backend services from core engineering teams, then maintain, upgrade, and scale them.
Support recommendation systems during business hours (9-5 ET) as part of a goalie rotation:
Triage PagerDuty alerts.
Apply fixes such as restarts, rollbacks, and scaling.
Escalate to the owning squad when needed.
Keep services current: quarterly dependency updates and security patches, Kubernetes version upgrades, and GCP migrations.
Reduce alert noise by tuning thresholds, fixing auto-resolving alerts, grouping related alerts, and removing alerts that aren't actionable.
Identify unused services and decommission them safely using Backstage.
Write and maintain runbooks and service documentation, and keep the service catalog accurate (ownership, reliability tiers, PagerDuty routing).
Partner with SeshGen engineers and managers through handovers, alert reviews, and rotation meetings.
Reduce tech debt and complexity where it makes sense.

What We're Looking For

Required:
Strong, long-running Java backend development experience. This is the top requirement.
Experience maintaining and scaling distributed, high-volume production systems used by millions of users.
Experience on systems shared across many engineering teams.
Comfort working on code you didn't write, using runbooks, dashboards, and logs to diagnose issues.
Hands-on experience with Kubernetes and a major cloud provider, with GCP preferred.
Experience with monitoring and alerting tools such as PagerDuty, Grafana, and Prometheus/PromQL.
Clear writing and strong asynchronous communication with distributed teams.
Nice to have:
Python experience.
Background in recommendation or personalization systems.
Comfort using AI coding tools to speed up maintenance and migration work.

qualifications:

Hard Skills - Senior-level Java backend development, Operating and maintaining distributed, high-volume production systems and Scaling systems and removing technical debt.

Soft Skills - Strong written and verbal communication, Effective prioritization skills and Cross-team collaboration and alignment
