Summary:

We are currently seeking a Content Development Manager (JavaScript), experience to join our Content team.

This role is available to candidates across Spain, with preference in Barcelona.

At Clio, we strive to be both human and high performing. For Development Managers, this means supporting and growing your people, strong execution as a team, and building solid technical solutions.

Our development managers are highly technical and hands-on, often coding, designing, and reviewing alongside their team.

They coach and build their teams to be both strong technically and strong team members. They create a safe and productive environment for all Clions.

Team Leadership and Technical Management

• Lead, mentor, and develop a team of Content Developers, supporting growth in technical skills, project delivery, and career progression.

• Set clear expectations for quality, velocity, and operational excellence.

• Provide technical guidance on crawler design, scraping strategies, data parsing, validation patterns, and error-handling approaches.

• Conduct regular code reviews, facilitate technical learning, and ensure consistently high engineering standards across the team.

Pipeline, Infrastructure, and Technical Stewardship

• Ensure the team builds and maintains reliable web crawlers and scrapers using Node.js, Puppeteer, Playwright, and other modern tooling.

• Guide the implementation of resilient scraping strategies, including retries, throttling, schema validation, and robust error handling.

• Oversee infrastructure and operational readiness, ensuring pipelines remain performant, observable, and easy to maintain.

• Partner with engineering to plan improvements to pipeline infrastructure, storage systems, and integration points.
  

Data Transformation and Quality Assurance

• Ensure that extracted data from HTML, JSON, XML, PDF, Word documents, images, and other formats is accurately transformed into structured schemas.

• Establish standards for normalization, validation, and testing across all content development work.

• Oversee automated test coverage, deterministic pipeline behaviour, and documentation of edge cases.

• Lead root-cause analysis for recurring data-quality issues and drive long-term fixes.

Project and Workstream Stewardship

• Translate roadmap priorities from Product and Content leadership into clear execution plans for the team.

• Manage project scope, timelines, risks, and dependencies using DevOps, Linear, or equivalent tools.

• Ensure the team operates autonomously and reliably, turning high-level requirements into high-quality deliverables.

• Provide status updates, surface risks early, and ensure alignment across engineering, content, and product partners

Documentation and Knowledge Management

• Own standards for technical documentation, including runbooks, setup guides, fixtures, architectural notes, and troubleshooting resources.

• Ensure documentation is consistently maintained and accessible, supporting team scalability and cross-functional collaboration.

• Drive knowledge sharing and adoption of internal tools across the Content Development function.

Experience

• 4+ years of experience in content acquisition engineering in JavaScript, data ingestion, web scraping, or a similar technical domain.

• 1–3 years of people management experience or demonstrated technical leadership (mentoring, guiding projects, establishing standards).

• Deep experience with JavaScript, Node.js.

• Experience with parsing structured/semi-structured data (HTML, JSON, XML) and operating within relational or NoSQL data storage systems.
