  • Lead the implementation of a cohesive, scalable infrastructure capable of adapting to new abuse tactics and patterns, ensuring that our efforts transition from point-to-point fixes to sustainable, long-term solutions.
  • Take an active role in technical decisions, system architecture, and code reviews to ensure the solutions meet business needs and Spotify technical standards.
  • Thrive in a fast changing environment where challenges are constant, and the job is never truly done, continuously iterating to improve observability and friction against known patterns as well as continuously analyzing new ones.

  • Outstanding ability to communicate effectively and collaborate with customers, partners, and team members to develop actionable strategies based on sophisticated technical concepts.

  • Eagerness to work in a "blue team" environment, defending against abuse threats and staying one step ahead of abusers.
  • Experience with fraud prevention, abuse detection, subscription E-commerce or similar domains.
  • Expertise with data analysis tools, anomaly detection, and scalable data processing platforms and Spotify standards.
