Are you a Full Stack Engineer eager to break down the walls between data platforms and developer platforms? Join us to build Data Experience for Backstage Portal, Spotify's enterprise internal developer portal (IDP) product that serves organizations worldwide.
Today, data lives in silos across data warehouses and transformation tools, disconnected from the software catalog where teams collaborate. Data Experience solves this by automatically ingesting dataset metadata and surfacing it in Backstage's Software Catalog, making data as discoverable and well-documented as any software component. You'll build the connectors, APIs, and UIs that enable our customers' data platform teams to reduce toil, data owners to handle datasets, and data consumers to find what they need.
This isn’t just about building yet another data catalog, it's about expanding Portal's mission to serve data practitioners with the same low-code experience that's redefining platform engineering teams at enterprise organizations. Collaborate with engineers, product managers, customer success teams, and other Spotify leaders to drive Portal adoption and deliver measurable value to our customers. If you're passionate about elegant solutions that bridge infrastructure and usability, we'd love to hear from you!
What You'll Do
- Build and Innovate: Develop Backstage powered UIs with TypeScript and React, and build Node.js backend services that integrate dataset discovery and metadata management with Portal's catalog, search, and ecosystem, unlocking the power of data for enterprise customers.
- Integrate and Connect: Build and maintain connectors that sync datasets and metadata from industry-leading data warehouses and transformation tools into our Data Registry, giving customers a unified view of their data landscape.
- Collaborate with Customers: Partner with Portal customers, data platform teams, data owners, and data consumers, to identify pain points, gather requirements, and iterate on features that deliver real value.
- Own the Full Lifecycle: Lead projects from ideation and design through deployment, monitoring, and customer support, delivering well-tested, maintainable solutions that scale.
Who You Are
- You have demonstrated ability with TypeScript and React, able to craft intuitive interfaces that enhance Portal's data experience for enterprise customers.
- You have experience building backend services and APIs with Node.js delivering scalable, efficient systems that handle metadata at scale.
- You’re passionate about data platforms and integrations, eager to work with data warehouse APIs and understand how data practitioners discover, run, and use datasets in their workflows.
- You grow with full-cycle product development, from customer research and discovery to coding, testing, deployment, monitoring, and support, constantly learning and growing as a well-rounded engineer.
Where You'll Be
- This role is based in NYC
- We 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.
