Engineering Manager, Developer Experience (Platform & AI)

Location: Madrid

Work Model: Hybrid (4 days in-office / 1 day WFH)

### About the Team

The Developer Experience (DevExp) team builds and operates the foundational platform powering all engineering at Ebury—from CI/CD, deployment, and test infrastructure to self-service tooling and enterprise AI systems across the development lifecycle.

We treat our development process as a product, our engineers as customers, and success as measurable outcomes: lead time, change failure rate, and platform adoption. Our North Star is simple: driving modern SDLC evolution, scaling AI adoption safely, and maximizing developer autonomy across the business.

### About the Role

You will lead this team as a player-coach. You will hire, mentor, and grow a team of platform engineers while staying technically grounded enough to drive direction on platform architecture, progressive delivery, and AI agent execution frameworks.

You will own two core mandates end-to-end—from design and architectural strategy through to day-to-day operations:

The Delivery Platform (CI/CD & Infrastructure)

The AI-Assisted Developer Platform

### In This Role, You Will

### Own the Delivery Platform

Run CI/CD as a Product: Define and deliver against strict SLOs for the SDLC platform. Continuously innovate and propose infrastructure improvements based on developer feedback.

Build Progressive Delivery into the Paved Path: Implement automated canary releases, real-time metric analysis, instant rollbacks, feature flag management, and safe database migrations across our AWS and GCP environments (Kubernetes, ECS/EKS).

Evolve Observability & Self-Service Infrastructure: Provide developer self-service tooling in partnership with product engineering, including automated service scaffolding, a centralized software catalog with ownership scorecards, ephemeral PR preview environments, and standardized Terraform modules.

Elevate Quality Gates: Maintain shared test infrastructure and automated quality guardrails to keep change failure rates low—even as overall code volume grows through AI-assisted engineering.

### Build the AI-Assisted Developer Platform

Operate Ebury’s Agent Harness: Build and run managed, sandboxed execution environments for coding agents (Claude CLI, Gemini CLI, and emerging successors) featuring isolated Git worktrees, short-lived scoped credentials, session audit logs, and multi-model routing to prevent vendor lock-in.

Integrate AI Where It Pays Off: Deploy evaluated AI tooling into the SDLC for pull-request reviews, test generation, automated dependency/code migrations, internal docs, and incident summarization.

Build Context Layers for Agents: Expose internal context via Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers over our software catalog, engineering standards, runbooks, ADRs, and internal docs.

Implement Financial-Grade Guardrails: Engineer strict security guardrails tailored to a regulated financial institution, including sandboxed execution with egress controls, prompt-injection defenses, human-in-the-loop approval gates, and eval suites to prevent AI behavioral regression.

Instrument the Entire SDLC: Track traditional DORA metrics alongside AI-specific telemetry (adoption rate, suggestion acceptance/reversal rates, agent session success, and review overhead).

### Lead and Scale the Team

Hire & Coach: Recruit, grow, and retain high-performing platform engineers while remaining hands-on enough to review designs and unblock technical obstacles.

Lead with Evidence: Drive the product roadmap using developer research, adoption metrics, and satisfaction surveys rather than reactive ticket queues.
