Spotify Engineering

Fleetshift is now GA in Spotify Portal. You describe the change once and Fleetshift rolls it out across your fleet: targeting, creating PRs, and tracking them. Deterministic recipes for the predictable stuff. Honk, our AI coding agent, for everything that isn't. We built this because a Java runtime migration once took 8 months and about 2,000 pull requests. Now a framework release reaches 70% adoption in under a week. When Log4j hit, 80% of production services were patched within 9 hours. → hubs.li/Q04qhY400

New webinar: we took one real engineering task and ran it through the entire Portal loop — catalog → AI skills → Soundcheck fix → fleet-wide migration → measurement. See how you can power your org’s agentic transformation with Portal: hubs.li/Q04q4r1K0

How do you build a culture of experimentation inside a 100-year-old institution like the BBC? 🎧 Listen to the second episode of our miniseries on product experimentation: hubs.li/Q04l1Yg60

Developer experience is for AI agents, too. 🤖🧑‍💻 Last month at Code with @Claudeai in London, @Spotify’s chief architect shared how we’re making agents more effective. Highlights and the full talk here: hubs.li/Q04k39dq0

New on NerdOut@Spotify: we're launching a special miniseries on product experimentation! Kicking things off with @Huel — hear how a team of seven rebuilt the nutrition brand’s experimentation culture from the ground up. 🎧 Listen: hubs.li/Q04jb65p0

Join @Spotify’s chief architect at "Code with @Claudeai" tomorrow in London to learn how we’re scaling developer experience to teams and agents: hubs.li/Q04h0LqZ0

We recently talked with @thenewstack about what agentic-first development is really like inside @Spotify — you can now watch the full conversation here: 📺 hubs.li/Q04gplXX0

If you’re at Code Remix in Miami this week, learn how @Spotify adopted a fleet-first mindset to make code changes across tens, hundreds, and even thousands of repos at once — turning “scary mass change” into boring infrastructure: hubs.li/Q04g4lyg0

What if launching an ad campaign on Spotify was as simple as describing it in plain English? 📣🤖 Check out our new Claude Claude plugin that turns natural language into fully structured Spotify Ads API workflows: hubs.li/Q04fq4Q_0

Last chance to register! This Wednesday, learn what adopting agentic-first development is really like at Spotify. Join us for @thenewstack’s live webinar with our platform engineering team: hubs.li/Q04dxkKC0

Our data platform team needed to migrate ~1,800 pipelines across three frameworks in six months. Doing it by hand? An estimated 10 engineering weeks. So we put our background coding agent 🪿Honk on the job instead: hubs.li/Q04dc5cT0

What does agentic development break — and what still holds? @thenewstack joins two of our platform engineering experts to explore how agentic-first development is changing the way we build at Spotify. Register for our live webinar: hubs.li/Q04clGxx0

In case you missed our fireside chat with @Anthropic last week, it’s now available to watch on the Spotify Engineering blog: 📺 hubs.li/Q049RmBj0

STREAMING THIS MONDAY: Spotify x Anthropic Live — a fireside chat about agentic development. Register to watch Monday’s livestream here: 👉 hubs.li/Q048wvC50

Spotify’s chief architect and our friends at Anthropic are having a special fireside chat on March 30 about how agentic development is transforming developer experience — register to watch here: 👉 hubs.li/Q0474GJT0

For 2025 Wrapped, we went beyond stats — we told the story of your year in listening. Read how we generated 1.4 billion personalized stories for Wrapped Archive: hubs.li/Q046Ym0F0

What does 🎧 @Spotify have in common with 🕹️ 2K Games, ⛱️ Airbnb, 🏦 Capital One, 💳 KOHO, and 🛻 Volvo Group? We all build with Backstage: hubs.li/Q046wDB50

How do you use AI coding agents to ship a new TV app faster? Hear how we redesigned our Spotify Apple TV app from a templated TVML foundation to a fully native tvOS experience. 🎧 Listen: hubs.ly/Q0460sNY0

Watch our new on-demand webinar to learn how @Spotify built 🪿Honk, the background coding agent that can handle complex code changes in a single repo or across thousands at once: 📺 hubs.li/Q045zLj10

Instead of hard-coding workflows, we built a multi-agent architecture to improve how we create advertising media plans at Spotify. Check out how we built it: hubs.li/Q043SnZ30
