Descripción del empleo

Welcome to DKB Code Factory…

The Senior Engineering Manager is responsible for building and scaling a high‑performing engineering organization that enables the successful delivery of the strategic objectives for our Property Management Platform. Acting as a manager of managers, this role leads multiple Engineering Managers, shapes the organizational structure, drives hiring and talent development, and establishes clear ownership and accountability across engineering teams.

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‑technical stakeholders.
• Hands‑on experience with engineering standards and platforms: CI/CD rollout, automated testing, observability, and incident response processes.
• Experience operating within regulated environments (security, compliance, audit readiness) or equivalent domain experience.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills; ability to create psychological safety and coach managers.
• Fluent in English; Spanish language skills are a plus.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS or GCP), Kubernetes, and containerised deployments (nice‑to‑have).
• Familiarity with CI tooling (GitLab/GitHub Actions, Jenkins), observability stacks (Prometheus/Grafana, tracing), and mobile stacks (Kotlin/Swift or React Native) (nice‑to‑have).
• You're passionate about your work, but also know how to enjoy your free time!
