- Deliver compelling insights, stories and artefacts to help drive evidence-based product and design decisions.
- Develop and innovate on our mixed-methods insights practice and contribute to the wider Insights community at Spotify

- Familiar with qualitative research methods, utilizing data from e.g. user interviews and surveys to synthesize quantitative data with qualitative data.
