Spotify is seeking a Data Scientist II to join Product Trust Insights (PTI) within Trust & Safety. PTI accelerates Spotify innovation by providing safety research, risk measurement, and evidence-based recommendations that enable R&D teams to confidently expand into new products, markets, and technologies.
PTI's research informs how Spotify designs, launches, and improves features across the platform, with a particular focus on AI-powered experiences, recommendations, social and messaging surfaces, and the safety needs of younger users. Our work helps product teams understand where risks concentrate, which user segments are most affected, and which interventions improve outcomes.
This role will partner with other Trust & Safety teams to ensure that product and policy decisions are grounded in rigorous evidence. The work spans pre-launch risk assessment, evaluation of AI features and agentic systems, longitudinal safety measurement, and research into how high-risk user populations experience the platform. Trust & Safety's mission is to keep Spotify safe for creators, advertisers, and listeners, and PTI's contribution is the evidence base that makes safer product decisions possible.
