I recently joined the Spotify Audio Intelligence team as a machine learning infrastructure engineer. At our team offsite, we did lightning round introductions of ourselves, so I used ChatGPT and tad.ai to generate a song about my career history.

Started at RTI, solving problems with care,
Social media models and GIS in the air.
Then Parsley called, real-time streams to refine,
With Python and Storm, data aligned.

From research to engineering, skills took flight,
Building platforms through day and night.
Each role a step, each tool a stage,
A career evolving, page by page.

At Cylance, you scaled machine learning with ease,
Serverless pipelines and malware’s disease.

D.T.N. brought platforms, Airflow in play,
Cloud tools for data, clearing the way.
Varo’s features took center stage,
With Tecton and Airflow, systems engaged.

Fraud detection, insights in view,
Scaling platforms, something new.
From data science to ML core,
Building systems that teams adore.

Now at Spotify, the journey goes on,
Tim’s career—focused, strong.
Each milestone builds the next design,
A career in motion, sharp and aligned.

Tim’s journey tells a thoughtful tale,
A builder of systems, a path to unveil.
