The Personalization team at Spotify makes deciding what to play next effortless and enjoyable for every listener. We aim to deeply understand music, podcasts, audiobooks, and videos to deliver exceptional recommendations that keep hundreds of millions of people engaged every day. Our work spans across experiences like Home, Search, curated playlists such as Discover Weekly and Daylist, and new innovations like AI DJ and AI Playlists. Search is one of the most important entry points into Spotify’s ecosystem—powering how listeners find and rediscover music, podcasts, and audiobooks. Beyond retrieval, Search drives exploration and discovery, connecting fans with creators in new ways. Building world-class Search means tackling natural language understanding, personalization, and generative AI at massive scale.
