Principal Product Manager, Habit Formation

Spotify transformed how the world listens. Now we're transforming how the world discovers. With over 600 million users, Home is the surface listeners open first — where they meet the music, podcasts, and audio they'll love next. We're reimagining Home for an AI-native age: not a static feed, but an agentic experience that understands intent, takes action, and adapts in real time.
This is a defining role for the next era of Spotify's consumer product. As Principal Product Manager for Agentic Surfaces, you'll own the agentic future of Home — our most valuable surface — with a mandate that extends to other surfaces as the strategy matures.
A central part of this role is shaping how Spotify's personalization stack evolves in an AI-native age. You'll make clear-eyed strategic calls about where our established recommendation stack continues to play a durable role, and where we deprecate it in favor of new technologies (agents and the Large Personalization Model) balancing ambition against reliability for a surface hundreds of millions of people depend on every day.
You'll help define what product management means in an AI-native age, where the work shifts from designing screens to orchestrating agents. You'll set the standard for how Spotify builds agentic products and bring the rest of the studio along with you.
This role demands rare range: the product taste to sweat the craft of an experience hundreds of millions of people touch daily, the technical depth to partner with ML engineers and researchers on what's actually possible, and the organizational gravity to align senior leadership across a large, distributed org around a bold vision.

What You'll Do: Define the long-term vision, strategy, roadmap, and execution for Habit Formation across Spotify's consumer experience. Build the behavioral intelligence that helps identify when listeners are ready to discover new formats, features, or experiences. Partner with engineering, machine learning, design, research, and data science to build experiences powered by behavioral insights and experimentation. Translate advances in AI, recommendation models, and intelligent agents into intuitive consumer experiences that millions of listeners love. Develop systems that encourage sustainable engagement while ensuring teams work together instead of competing for user attention. Influence the evolution of Spotify's surfaces, information architecture, and product experiences to reinforce lasting listening habits. Use experimentation, behavioral analysis, and user research to identify opportunities and make informed product decisions in ambiguous problem spaces. Set clear product direction, make thoughtful prioritization decisions, and align senior leaders around a shared strategy. Drive execution across multiple engineering teams while balancing quality, speed, user trust, and long-term business impact. Establish Habit Formation as a strategic product capability that enables sustainable growth across Spotify.
