About the Role
Join a small, high-caliber founding team at a Berlin-based AI-native fintech company building autonomous agent workflows for private market operations. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll own technical delivery end-to-end — from discovery sessions with fund accounting and operations teams through to production launch — and feed real-world deployment insights directly back into the core product.
This is a hands-on, customer-facing engineering role at the intersection of AI systems, financial operations, and rapid product iteration. You'll work on-site in Berlin with a tight founding team, operating with high autonomy and impact from day one.
What You'll Do
- Manage the full technical delivery lifecycle — discovery, scoping, build, and production launch — for AI-driven fund accounting agent deployments
- Collaborate directly with customer operations teams to map existing workflows and identify adoption barriers
- Convert customer processes into production-grade AI-driven workflows on the platform
- Build customer-tailored prototypes with rapid iteration cycles and informed scope adjustments
- Translate deployment learnings into concrete product feedback and development planning
- Identify recurring patterns and develop standardized approaches and reusable components over time
What We're Looking For
Required:
- Eligibility to work in Germany without visa sponsorship
- Ability to work on-site in Berlin
- Proven ability to transform customer workflows into production deployments of AI/ML-driven systems
- End-to-end technical delivery ownership, from discovery through to go-live
- Experience engaging stakeholders in private-market operations (e.g. fund accounting, treasury, transfer agency)
- Proficiency deploying AI/ML systems to production environments — including monitoring, rollback, and production-grade tooling
- 1–3 years of relevant engineering experience
Nice to Have:
- Comfort operating in a small founding-team environment with high ambiguity and rapid iteration
- Familiarity with the tech stack: TypeScript, NestJS, Postgres, Prisma, Inngest, React, TanStack, Tailwind
- Background at companies working on AI agents, workflow automation, or fintech infrastructure
Compensation & Benefits
- Salary: €70,000 – €110,000 per year, depending on experience
- Early-stage equity opportunity with a founding-team position
- High-ownership, high-impact role within a lean and experienced team
Location
- Berlin, Germany — on-site
- Visa sponsorship is not available; candidates must already be eligible to work in Germany
