Job description

Our team of Enablers are in charge of supporting the global Product and Tech organisation to engage and collaborate effectively with our local Marketplaces (our local brands like Milanuncios, Coches, etc.). They are the contact point between our products and our users and their mission is to closely understand our marketplace problems and find out how to solve them, designing effective ways to get things done that don’t rely solely on scalable products. 

We value actions, not words, so a significant amount of your time will be focused on delivering value, both personally and through your team, delivering support in the teams and marketplaces that need your skills to unblock challenges and increase speed.

As a Technical Project Manager (what we call internally Enabler Coordinator), you will be the glue between our highly skilled Chat and Notification engineering team and our global marketplaces. Ideally, you have experience working with software development teams and ability to quickly build a solid technical understanding of our product. You have professional experience where you have been successful managing expectations and plans with internal or external stakeholders, and have actively participated in leading projects and integrations to completion. If that sounds like you, we’d love to discuss!

Responsibilities

  • Working closely with Product Management in setting priorities for product and engineering, serving as main technical point of contact for marketplaces
  • Provide technical and hands-on project management of deployments, cross-functional coordination and inter/intra team communications to deliver outstanding outcomes
  • Manage schedules, identify possible issues and clearly communicate them to project stakeholders
  • You help to organise and animate the team’s development and support processes with an Agile mindset
  • Take responsibility for release communication, schedules and milestones, keeping up a high velocity in a fast-paced environment
  • Define a repeatable integration process for our product and align with other components
  • Responsible to ensure high level of engagement and motivation for all engineers participating in the projects and ensure there is a positive, respectful, collaborative and constructive attitude

Additional Information

  • Competitive compensation package
  • Opportunity to shape the way we work. Your feedback and opinions are valued at all levels of the organisation
  • Benefits including private health insurance, stock purchase plan and bonus
  • Flexibility to work when and how you want - flexible hours, autonomy to set your own agenda, choice of phone and computer
  • Smart Working Policy - work remotely some of the time, balanced with time in the office together with your team - between 5 and 45 days per quarter in the office
  • "Work from anywhere" weeks - up to four weeks working from anywhere, including from another country, as long as you have an internet connection!
  • Career development, including individual training budget and language classes
  • Flexible benefits programme (transport, restaurants, child-care, etc)
  • Free daily breakfast
  • 26 days of holiday

Preferred experience

  • Prior knowledge of working on software delivery project: you have architected, built, designed or managed one
  • Significant previous experience managing complex technical projects
  • Preferably, experience in complex environment with many stakeholders and global products 
  • Ability to network with different teams across the organisation to leverage knowledge and expertise
