Description
About the Role
This is a founding-team role at a Berlin-based, pre-seed AI-native platform built for private market operations — think fund accounting, treasury, and transfer agency automation powered by autonomous AI agents. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll own technical delivery end-to-end: sitting with customers to understand their workflows, translating those workflows into production-grade AI deployments, and feeding real-world insights back into the core product. You'll be a critical bridge between customer success and product evolution at a company operating at the frontier of AI in financial services.
The stack is modern and lean: TypeScript, NestJS, Postgres, Prisma, Inngest, Mastra, React, TanStack, and Tailwind. You'll work closely with a small, high-caliber founding team and have outsized influence on how the product grows.
What You'll Do
Manage technical delivery across the full project lifecycle — from initial discovery through to production launch.
Collaborate directly with customer operations teams in private markets to map workflows, surface pain points, and identify adoption barriers.
Convert customer processes into AI-driven, production-ready workflows on the platform.
Build customer-tailored prototypes with rapid iteration cycles, making informed scope adjustments along the way.
Bring deployment learnings back into product planning to continuously sharpen the platform.
Develop standardized approaches and reusable components from recurring patterns across customer deployments.
What We're Looking For
Required:
Proven ability to transform customer workflows into production deployments of AI-driven systems (agents, LLM pipelines, or similar).
End-to-end technical ownership mindset — you're comfortable driving a project from discovery to go-live without heavy scaffolding.
Experience engaging and collaborating with stakeholders in operations-heavy, process-rich environments (private markets / financial services a strong plus).
Proficiency deploying AI/ML systems to production: monitoring, rollback, reliability practices.
Eligibility to work in Germany without visa sponsorship and willingness to work on-site in Berlin.
Nice to Have:
Comfort operating in a small founding-team environment with high ambiguity, fast iteration, and broad scope.
Familiarity with fund accounting, fund administration, or private market operations workflows.
Experience with any part of the tech stack: TypeScript, NestJS, React, Postgres, or LLM orchestration frameworks.
Compensation & Benefits
Salary: €70,000 – €110,000 per year, depending on experience.
Early-stage equity opportunity with a founding team.
High-impact, high-ownership role with direct influence on product direction.
Location
On-site in Berlin, Germany — this is a fully in-person role.
Visa sponsorship is not available; candidates must already have the right to work in Germany.
