I think every enterprise tries to build this themselves and ends up buying a very expensive platform when their internal project fails. Thanks for creating this.

NYC Spotify employee here. Spotify has a very honest, open, and autonomous culture. Spotify is comprised of many Missions which are defined by a business purpose like ads, user engagement, or analytics. Within a Mission you will have one or more Tribes. Each Tribe is loosely associated with the Mission goal and addresses a portion of the overall Mission. A Squad is a delivery team/product team. Squads are accountable for building great products. They are given autonomy to make the right decisions for the direction of their product. Squads function as "mini-startups", if you will. A grouping of many Squads is called a Tribe. A Mission will have one or more Tribes. It's a tad confusing and I'm sure I've gotten some of definitions wrong, but you get the general gist.

As for the people culture, Spotify values the growth of employees. We focus heavily on personal growth over product delivery. We believe if we build good people they will build good products. I was doubtful before joining Spotify that they would fulfill everything I was told (about the culture) during the interview process but everything has held true.

I would encourage you to apply. Spotify is a great place to work.

Spotify built a scheduler system named Styx that handles orchestration (https://github.com/spotify/styx) but it's fairly beta for external use.

I just went through the interview process for a management role at a company in which they stressed the importance of "cultural fit." I assumed this meant I would be evaluated for my ability to work within a startup vs the traditional large enterprise companies I had been working for over the last few years.

I was caught a bit off-guard when the interview pivoted towards inclusion and diversity. I stumbled through some questions which, in hindsight, were geared around determining if I was a "brogrammer". The questions were very open-ended like: "How do you deal with diversity?" and "How do you accommodate other's working styles?"

Speaking with HR after the interview the company their definition of "cultural fit" was much broader than just work or programming style. The company is extremely interested in building a talent pool that is diverse in all ways (age, gender, ethnicity, etc...) and viewed the engineering practices as something that can be taught.

Their belief, if you invest in good people who like their jobs then they will build good products. And if those products are good then the company will make money.

Highly inspired by Pete Corey's Elixir-based code poster creator, this project aims to simplify the creation of a code poster SVG using a source image file and a GitHub repository.
