80,000 - 85,000
Location: Malaga, Spain
Hybrid Working - 2 days onsite a week
At the crossroads of software craftsmanship and security innovation, we’re looking for a Senior Lead Engineer who’s not just a builder, but a leader, mentor, and innovator.
This isn’t a role for someone who just ticks boxes. They want a seasoned engineering lead who thrives on solving complex problems, writes elegant code, and has the maturity to guide others toward engineering excellence. You’ll be the one who not only writes the code, but sets the standard for how it should be written.
Your Mission
As a core member of thei Software Engineering team, you’ll:
* Lead by example: design, build, and evolve in-house software engineering security tools that safeguard our global platforms.
* Mentor and inspire teammates: champion clean code, testing, and peer reviews, while instilling best practices across the stack.
* Be a security advisor: partner with product engineering teams to design and operate secure applications at scale.
* Automate everything: leverage IaC, pipelines, and modern frameworks to make security efficient, scalable, and developer-friendly.
* Respond and innovate: roll up your sleeves during incidents, but also proactively spot vulnerabilities and close gaps before they’re a problem.
Tech Playground
Their stack is diverse, modern, and evolving:
* Core languages & frameworks: Java (Spring Boot), Python, Node.js, React
* Infrastructure & automation: Kubernetes, Ansible, Terraform, Helm
* Security tools you’ll touch: SAST, HashiCorp Vault, Keycloak, OPA Gatekeeper
* Everything-as-code: from infrastructure to CI/CD
What You Bring
* 5+ years of full-stack development experience, Java mastery is key, but you’re versatile across Python and JS.
* The ability to design, code, test, and deploy, and then maintain and improve what you build.
* A mature, thoughtful approach: you know when to move fast, and when to slow down for quality and security.
Who You Are
You’re not just a coder, you’re a builder, mentor, and problem-solver. You love sharing knowledge, removing blockers, and empowering others. You thrive in collaboration but can self-drive when needed. Above all, you care deeply about the craft of software engineering and applying it to create tools that make security seamless.
Why Join Them
You’ll be part of a global Software Engnieering team shaping the future of how they protect products and platforms. You’ll have the freedom to innovate, the support of like-minded engineers, and the chance to leave your fingerprint on tools that scale across the business.
If you’re passionate about building secure software systems, leading with code, and driving engineering maturity, we’d love to hear from you.
