Applied AI Engineer – AI & Automation

About the Role This is a hands-on engineering role at an early-stage fintech company building an AI-powered platform for the tax advisory industry. You'll design and own the agentic AI foundation that underpins real product features — not prototypes — and ship those features directly into live advisory workflows where they make an immediate difference. What You'll Do Design and build the agentic AI infrastructure that powers the company's core product capabilities. Ship the first production AI use cases into tax advisory workflows, from architecture through to deployment. Own the full AI stack end-to-end, taking responsibility for reliability, scalability, and iteration speed. Work closely with advisory teams to gather real user feedback and translate it into rapid product improvements. What We're Looking For Proven experience building agentic AI systems — LLM orchestration, agent frameworks, and tool use in production environments. Strong software engineering fundamentals; hands-on experience with NestJS and/or React is a meaningful plus. A builder mindset — you reach for code-first solutions, not low-code platforms. Demonstrated ability to ship production-ready AI features, not just experiments. Background or genuine interest in accounting, finance, or process automation domains is a welcome bonus. Comfortable working on-site and collaborating in person in a fast-moving, small team environment. Compensation & Benefits Salary range: €60,000 – €120,000 per year . Visa sponsorship is not available for this role. Location On-site in Berlin, Germany . Remote work is not an option for this position.
