At Spotify, the AiKA squad is pioneering the future of AI-powered code generation and developer productivity. We build scalable backend systems that integrate Generative AI (GenAI) into engineering workflows, with a focus on Honk — our autonomous coding agent for large-scale code modifications and technology migrations.
By joining us, you’ll help shape how developers worldwide work with AI-powered tools, streamlining workflows and enabling innovation at scale. You’ll work at the intersection of backend engineering, AI/ML, and developer tooling in a fast-moving, startup-like environment.
What You'll Do
Build and own Honk, developing the backend infrastructure for our autonomous coding agentIntegrate LLMs and agentic workflows into production systemsScale backend infrastructure with robust services in Python/TypeScript at enterprise levelDesign agentic workflows that understand, plan, and execute code changes across large codebasesEnhance developer experience by integrating seamlessly with CI/CD pipelines and developer toolsEnsure reliability and quality by delivering testable, observable, and maintainable backend codeDrive innovation and leadership by experimenting with new AI models and contributing to technical direction
Who You Are
You have backend expertise with Python, Java, or TypeScript/Node.js and cloud platformsYou understand LLMs & agentic workflows (prompt engineering, orchestration, AI tools like Copilot/Claude)You design scalable systems that address reliability, latency, and cost challenges in AI-powered environmentsYou are experienced in DevOps (Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, monitoring)You value code quality and own systems from design to productionYou collaborate effectively across diverse teams (AI researchers, PMs, engineers)You thrive in dynamic environments, learning and adapting as AI technologies evolve
Where You'll Be
This role is based in LondonWe offer you the flexibility to work where you work best! There will be some in person meetings, but still allows for flexibility to work from home.
