Typical jobs

Product management and product design. Cybersecurity, which has a notable cluster in Málaga. IT support and systems administration.
What it pays
The highest-paying part of the general job market in Spain, and below equivalent roles in London, Amsterdam, Dublin or Berlin. Barcelona and Madrid lead, Málaga and Valencia follow. Many companies advertise gross annual figures; check the number of payments and whether variable compensation is included in the headline.
Requirements and qualifications
Demonstrable ability matters more than formal qualifications in most of this market — a portfolio, a public repository, a track record. English is frequently the working language. Spanish helps with Spanish-owned companies and is largely irrelevant at international ones.
Who is hiring
International product companies with engineering or support centres in Barcelona, Madrid and Málaga. Spanish startups and scale-ups. Consultancies and IT services companies, which hire in volume. Banks and telecoms, which run large internal technology organisations. The Málaga TechPark cluster.
Contracts and conditions
Permanent contracts are the norm. Hybrid arrangements — typically two or three days in the office — are common, and fully remote roles exist but are advertised as such rather than assumed.
