Our mission on the Advertising Product & Technology team is to build a next generation advertising platform that aligns with our unique value proposition for audio and video. We work to scale the user experience for hundreds of millions of fans and hundreds of thousands of advertisers.

We own Rolodex, a system that powers targeting and is key to respecting privacy and feeding other crucial systems.
