About the Role
This is a hands-on engineering role at the heart of a fast-growing, agentic-first tax advisory technology platform targeting the German SME market. You'll join a small, high-calibre AI & Automation team and work directly with founders and product leads to build the infrastructure that transforms how tax advisory firms operate — turning repetitive, manual processes into fast, reliable, AI-powered execution.
The platform sits at the intersection of regulated financial services and modern software engineering, giving you real-world exposure to complex domain problems where accuracy and compliance truly matter. This is an on-site role based in Berlin, Germany.
Please note: visa sponsorship is not available for this position.
What You'll Do
- Design and build automation and infrastructure tools that eliminate repetitive work across accounting and advisory workflows.
- Translate complex accounting, tax, and advisory processes into scalable, AI-powered software solutions.
- Integrate systems and data across multiple partner firms to create a coherent, unified platform experience.
- Collaborate closely with founders, domain advisors, and product teams to ship high-impact features quickly.
- Contribute to shaping the technical architecture — ensuring the stack is built for speed, reliability, and long-term scale.
What We're Looking For
Must-haves:
- 3+ years of experience applying AI in real-world, production contexts — ideally in regulated industries (finance, legal, tax, healthcare, or similar).
- Strong proficiency in TypeScript and Python — you're comfortable shipping clean, pragmatic code in both.
- Demonstrated experience building AI-powered automation that meaningfully accelerates real work — not just prototypes.
- Solid computer science fundamentals and an instinct for clean, maintainable engineering.
- Genuine interest in how businesses operate — accounting, finance, and process optimisation excite rather than intimidate you.
Nice to have:
- German language proficiency (professional or native level) — particularly valuable given the domain and client base.
- Familiarity with German tax advisory workflows, DATEV, or similar accounting infrastructure.
- Experience at a consulting firm, fintech, or professional-services technology company.
Location
This role is on-site in Berlin, Germany. Candidates must be available to work from the Berlin office on a regular basis. Visa sponsorship is not available — candidates must have the right to work in Germany.
