Senior AI Engineer

Hybrid - Berlin
Full-time
Permanent employee

Mission

Build intelligent, reliable AI systems that help SMEs navigate financial and tax operations. Own outcomes, not just output—balancing speed and craftsmanship.This role follows a hybrid schedule, requiring at least two days each week in the office in Berlin to collaborate effectively with the team.

Core responsibilities

What you'll do

  • Build and deploy AI agents that automate accounting, payroll, and tax workflows
  • Develop LLM-based systems using modern frameworks and prompt engineering with quality control
  • Integrate AI capabilities with existing systems and APIs
  • Optimize performance, cost, and reliability of AI features

What makes it special

  • High ownership — you'll shape what we build and how we build it
  • Tight feedback loops with domain experts and customers
  • Pragmatic pace: ship, learn, iterate — without sacrificing quality

Your profile

Your Experience & Mindset
  • You have 5+ years experience in Software Engineering and AI
  • You've worked in early-stage startups or scale-ups where you had to wear multiple hats (coding, testing, UI, integrations)
  • Hands-on experience building with LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or similar) — APIs, prompt engineering, structured outputs, agent frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, or similar)
  • You actively use AI coding tools like Cursor, Codex, or Claude in your daily workflow — and you can talk about how and why
  • Experience with RESTful APIs, cloud services, and testing/QA for AI systems
  • You're comfortable with ambiguity and high ownership — you'll manage multiple projects simultaneously and organize your own delivery
Preferred experience
  • You came from software engineering and have deliberately moved into AI
  • Strong Python skills — you can actually code, not just prompt

The process

We like to move fast — and with the right candidate, the entire process can be completed in less than two weeks.
