About The Role

ABOUT THE ROLE

This is a hands-on, full-stack engineering role embedded within the advisory teams of a tech-enabled tax advisory group. You'll work in tight feedback loops with tax professionals — turning complex, real-world workflows into working software fast. Equal parts engineer and product thinker, you'll own features from scoping all the way through to deployment.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Build MVPs in close collaboration with practicing tax advisors to solve concrete workflow problems.
  • Translate complex advisory and regulatory processes into clear software requirements and working implementations.
  • Iterate rapidly based on direct feedback from non-technical domain experts.
  • Own features end-to-end — from requirements gathering and scoping through to production deployment.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • 3+ years of experience building and shipping production full-stack software.
  • Fluent German (spoken and written) — this is a firm requirement.
  • Strong proficiency with a modern backend framework (NestJS, Express, or similar Node.js-based stack).
  • Strong proficiency with React or an equivalent modern frontend framework.
  • Solid full-stack TypeScript skills.
  • Proven experience owning features end-to-end and working directly with non-technical stakeholders to gather requirements.
  • A code-first mindset — no reliance on low-code or no-code platforms.
  • Experience in financial services, tax, accounting, or another regulated advisory domain is a strong plus.
  • Familiarity with German business processes or the German regulatory environment is a plus.
  • Background in consulting, professional services, or high-performance operational environments is advantageous.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

Salary range: €60,000 – €120,000 per year depending on experience.
