About the Role

This is a founding-team engineering role at a seed-stage startup building an AI-powered operating platform for the German tax advisory and accounting industry. You will turn real-world tax advisory work into executable, scalable systems, owning the full journey from prototype to hardened production workflow.

Responsibilities

• Analyze workflows across accounting, payroll, reporting, and client communication to understand how work actually moves.
• Identify bottlenecks, handover points, failure modes, and unnecessary manual effort.
• Rapidly design and build minimum-viable prototypes (MEPs/MVPs) to automate and validate workflows.
• Implement workflow systems using n8n, Temporal, or custom backend services.
• Collaborate closely with tax advisors and engineers in tight, iterative feedback loops.
• Own the full transition from early prototype → hardened, production-grade workflow.
• Make deliberate decisions about when a UI adds genuine value — and when it's just an implementation detail.

Requirements

• Based in Berlin, or willing to relocate to Berlin, Germany to work from the office.
• Experience with tax, accounting, advisory, or broader professional services workflows — genuine domain knowledge of how these processes work.
• Significant experience designing and shipping workflow-heavy or automation-driven systems.
• Strong computer science fundamentals paired with a product-minded, deeply technical approach.
• Comfort with end-to-end ownership, ambiguity, and iterative prototyping rather than rigid process mandates.
• Hands-on experience with n8n, Temporal, or similar workflow orchestration tools.
• Experience hardening early-stage prototypes into robust production systems.
• Background working closely with domain experts (e.g. accountants, tax advisors, legal professionals).

Location

• Berlin, Germany

Work Type

• On-site

About the Company
