Forward Deployed Engineer

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.

• 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.
