The Senior Engineering Manager will build and scale a manager‑of‑managers layer and a reusable engineering platform across five teams in Valencia and Berlin, enabling rapid, secure, and maintainable delivery of a new business banking product. The role combines people leadership – hiring, coaching, performance calibration – with hands‑on ownership of engineering standards, platform architecture, and delivery practices in a regulated banking context.

Responsibilities
- Lead and grow a manager‑of‑managers layer: hire, coach, and develop founding Engineering Managers and create clear career pathways across the Valencia site.
- Own the engineering operating system: establish and enforce standards for code review, testing, CI/CD, architecture review, observability, and incident handling.
- Drive multi‑team delivery from discovery through MVP and production hardening, resolving cross‑team dependencies and maintaining release discipline.
- Build a modular, reusable business‑banking platform that accelerates future use cases and reduces duplicated implementation effort.




- Ensure service reliability, performance, security, auditability, and operational readiness for customer‑facing mobile and backend systems.
- Partner with Product, Design, Security, Architecture, and Compliance to align priorities and deliver customer value.
- Represent Valencia engineering in site‑building, talent planning, and leadership alignment with the Head of Valencia.

Qualifications
- Proven experience as a manager of managers, directly leading and developing multiple Engineering Managers across teams.
- Demonstrable track record of multi‑team product engineering leadership (not only project/delivery management).
- Concrete examples of hiring, performance management, and building quality systems (scorecards, calibration, promotion decisions).
- Credible engineering depth: experience making technical trade‑offs, influencing architecture, and explaining technical decisions to engineers and non‑techni
