The worldâs largest music streaming service is on the hunt for a new associate director to lead its activity within the libra stablecoin project, recently rebranded to diem.
According to an announcement, Spotify is looking for an associate director to join its Payment Strategy and Innovation team.
The successful candidate will be responsible for defining the streaming giantâs global payment strategy where they will âassess the payments landscapeâ and âlead its day-to-day engagement with the Libra Association,â per the announcement.
The candidate will also drive ânew opportunities and innovationâ in distributed ledger technology, blockchains, cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, central bank digital currencies and other digital assets, per the announcement.
In addition, the person assuming the role will also be responsible for Spotifyâs global footprint where it will seek innovation in the payments domain worldwide as well as emerging regulatory and market trends.
Spotify is a member of the 27-strong Diem Association (formerly Libra) and sits alongside big names such as Uber, Coinbase and Shopify.
The hiring plans builds on the companyâs foray into the industry stretching as far back as 2017 when the music streaming giant acquired blockchain startup Mediachain Labs enabling creators to attach information to projects.
