What you'll do

  • Lead, mentor and grow the engineering team, including the hiring of new engineers, and build a culture where people own the quality of what they ship
  • Lead the move to agentic development by working that way in the open: specifications, agent-sized tasks, review and tests, every day
  • Work with product, professional services, support and the managing director so that technical decisions follow business priorities and how clubs actually use the software
  • Turn agreed use cases into specifications and working, tested software, building end to end with AI coding agents
  • Shape the technical design with the group's technology leadership: data model, multi-tenant SaaS architecture, APIs, integrations and the agentic features built into the product
  • Build AI into the product for clients, such as assistants, smart search, forecasting and the automation of routine admin, reliably, cost-aware and with care for client data
  • Own the health of the live platform: a mature estate of Visual Basic 6, .NET Framework services, a PHP web tier and SQL Server databases, much of it running in customized on-premise environments and on Windows Server and Remote Desktop Services
  • Use agents to read, explain and safely change code nobody has touched in years, and reduce the per-client maintenance burden
  • Plan how clients move from today's system to the new product, one group at a time, without disrupting the clubs that depend on it
  • Bring in and own automated testing, CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code and observability, where some of it does not exist yet
  • Set the standard for code review and release, and decide what must be proven before a change reaches a client

What we're looking for

  • At least eight years of professional software development, including at least two years leading engineers or holding technical ownership of a production system that real clients depend on
  • Demonstrable agentic development: shipping production code with AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor or GitHub Copilot agents as a normal way of working, able to show how to specify, steer and verify their work, and having helped others work the same way
  • Hands-on experience building AI features into a real product: integrating LLM APIs with prompting, retrieval, evaluation and guardrails
  • Strong backend skills in at least one modern stack (.NET and C#, Python, Node.js, Go or similar) and in relational databases, including SQL Server design, migrations and performance tuning
  • Experience with a cloud platform (Azure, AWS or GCP), automated testing and CI/CD, ideally introduced into a team or codebase that did not have them
  • The patience and skill to change a mature codebase safely
  • Fluent written and spoken English, and the ability to explain technical trade-offs to non-engineers
  • Proactive: spotting what needs fixing before anyone asks, proposing a solution and following through

Nice to have

  • Spanish (strongly preferred) and Catalan
  • Multi-tenant SaaS architecture, and moving on-premise clients onto a cloud-hosted product
  • Infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Bicep or similar) and observability tooling
  • Visual Basic 6, .NET Framework, PHP or Laravel, and Windows Server and Remote Desktop Services environments
  • Tool integration through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), and familiarity with the EU AI Act
  • Payments, invoicing and Spanish regulatory requirements such as Veri*Factu, GDPR and the Esquema Nacional de Seguridad (ENS)
  • Sports, fitness, leisure or club management software, membership and booking systems, or access control and IoT hardware
