ph3What is Embat? /h3pEmbat is one of the fastest-growing FinTech scale-ups in Europe. Founded in 2021, we are on a mission to redefine how mid-market and enterprise companies interact with their money. We don't just offer visibility; we provide the financial operating system for the modern era. /ph3The Evolution /h3pFrom SaaS to Infrastructure --- we've moved beyond being a platform to becoming a powerhouse of financial services. We are building EmbatOne, our own banking infrastructure designed to bridge the gap between traditional banking and seamless digital operations. And with TellMe, our proprietary AI financial assistant, we are empowering CFOs and treasury teams to query complex data and get real-time insights through natural language, turning manual reporting into an archaic memory. /ph3Scale Impact /h3ulliThe Team:150+ exceptional individuals working from our hubs in Spain, UK and DACH, united by a culture of high performance and radical ownership. /liliThe Volume:Our transaction engines handle massive, high-volume payment flows for multinationals, ensuring security and resilience in every cent moved. /liliThe Backing: Backed by tier-1 investors like Creandum, Samaipata, 4Founders Capital and VentureFriends. We recently secured a €16M Series A to accelerate our global expansion. /li /ulh3What are we looking for? /h3pWe're looking for one senior leader to own our entire Platform Data vertical (infrastructure, developer experience, reliability, and data) This person will set the vision and strategy, build and coach the team, and stand up the engineering foundation the rest of the company will build on for years. /ppPlatform and data share the same DNA: both are internal products whose customers are our own engineering, product, and business teams, and both win or lose on the same disciplines --- standards, self-service, adoption, reliability, and cost. They can't be governed by two conflicting philosophies, which is exactly the risk two separate junior leads would create. /ppThis role requires vision and multi-year strategy across infra, DevEx, reliability, and data --- treating each as a product with a roadmap and adoption metrics, not a backlog of tickets; the ability to hire, mentor, and grow the engineers underneath, including future leads; and the cross-team authority to run scorecards, reviews, and escalations that hold other teams accountable. Foundations are far cheaper to build right from the start than to rehabilitate after years of accumulated debt --- this is the role that gets it right from day one.
