Collaborate across teams: Work closely with clients, Operations, Engineering, and other internal stakeholders to resolve issues and improve service delivery.
Drive scalability: Look for opportunities to reduce operational effort and enhance quality as our services and customer needs evolve.

What success looks like

Within 30 days: Understand BMAT's services, the team's operational responsibilities and the main data and technical workflows.

Within 60 days: Take ownership of assigned operational responsibilities, lead client communication and deliver a straightforward assignment using existing processes and guidance.

About the company & team

BMAT started in 2005 when a group of engineers with a passion for music decided to spin-off from an audio research lab in Barcelona. We're now over 200 people, spread across Barcelona, Buenos Aires, Lima, Rio de Janeiro, London, Paris, Nairobi, Oslo, Tel-Aviv, Singapore, Tokyo, Manila, Bangkok and Lagos.

We're a team of pretty decent people who enjoy working with each other. We're open-minded and well-traveled, coming from all parts of the world. We've got rappers, producers, cello players, DJs, and songwriters. The passion for music, the excitement for innovative technology and Barcelona as a backdrop has proven to make a good combination.

We've learnt that we thrive on learning from each other, so we don't just welcome but actively hire a range of open-minded people from all walks of life.

With equal opportunities for everyone, BMAT is a pretty nice place to work.
