Max Martin, egntlig Karl Martin Sandberg (født 1971) er en svensk musikkprodusent og komponist.

Han tok artistnavnet Max Martin da han begynte som produsent på 1990-tallet. Han har produsert blant annet for Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, Celine Dion, Bon Jovi, a-ha, 'N Sync, Amy Diamond, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande og Darin. Han var tidligere en del av miljøet på hitfabrikken Cheiron, men driver produksjonsselskapet Maratone.

Bakgrunn Max Martin droppet ut av videregående skole for å arbeide med musikk. Han startet et band med navnet It's Alive og skrev kontrakt med plateselskapet Cheiron. Bandet spilte inn et album og dro deretter på turne i Europa. Plateselskapet leide inn Martin for å skrive og produsere musikk for andre artister, og i 1992 ble han ansett som produsent i Cheiron og begynte med å produsere et album for Ace of Base, og samme år album med Leila K, Army of Lovers og 3T. Ace of Base-albumet The Sign ble en suksess og skal siden det ble gitt ut i 1993 ha solgt over 23 millioner eksemplarer.

I 1997 ble Cheiron engasjert for å skrive og produsere sanger til et album med Backstreet Boys. Senere samme år skrev Max Martin Robyns hit Show Me Love. Han fortsatte i 1998 med å produsere album for 5ive og 'N Sync. Sommeren døde innehaveren Denniz Pop av kreft, og dette gjorde at Martin fikk lederrollen på Cheiron. Han innledet da samarbeidet med låtskriveren og produsenten Rami.

I 1999 produserte Martin Britney Spears gjennombruddshit «(Hit me) Baby One More Time» noe som åpnet veien for hennes posisjon som verdensartist.

I 2002 ble virksomheten ved Cheiron lagt ned og Martin startet sitt nåværende selskap, Maratone.
