Most "AI Engineer" roles mean you're building CRUD apps with an OpenAI wrapper. This isn't one of them.


If you're looking for:

  • Writing React components and CSS all day → wrong place
  • A senior engineer to review all your code → wrong place
  • Clear Jira tickets with detailed specifications → wrong place
  • Building another SaaS dashboard → wrong place


If you want:

  • To orchestrate multiple AI agents solving complex problems → keep reading
  • To build infrastructure that processes financial data at scale → keep reading
  • To learn AI engineering from founders who've shipped products → keep reading


What We're Building

Northscope automates the finance profession (accounting and controlling) for mid-market industrial companies. We're turning finance departments from cost centers into strategic partners.

The problem: Finance teams spend 85% of their time on manual data crunching instead of strategic work. 40,000 transactions categorized manually every month. 5–10 days just for month-end close. Copy-paste between SAP, Excel, PowerPoint.

We're flipping that to 85% strategic insights, 15% data work.


Why Northscope? Why Now?

Serial Founders:

  • Florian: 10+ years finance operations (Head of Finance at Blockpit, COO/CFO at 3Folio), built mytalents.ai to 50+ B2B customers (ÖBB, Bitpanda, EY)
  • Miro: 10+ years data engineering in corporate finance functions, built multiple fintechs (Consola.finance, …)

We've Done This Before:

  • Raised VC money ✓
  • Built B2B products customers actually pay for ✓
  • Secured pre-seed funding for Northscope ✓
  • We will not stop before huge success

We Know Our Market:

  • 100+ customer discovery calls completed
  • Working with design partners already
  • Both founders have lived the pain we're solving


Your Role

  • Experience with finance/ERP systems or complex data integrations
  • B2B SaaS experience (you understand enterprise requirements)
  • You've used Claude Code, Cursor, or similar AI coding tools
  • Interest in finance/accounting (or willingness to learn)


Tech Stack:

  • AI: Claude, GPT, Gemini
  • Backend: Python, FastAPI
  • Orchestration: LangGraph or similar
  • Infrastructure: Cloud-native, containerized
  • Integrations: SAP APIs, Microsoft Dynamics, Excel automation


What You'll Get

Compensation:

  • Minimum salary: €60.000 gross/year, with significant overpayment based on qualifications and experience
  • Founding team equity package
  • Higher compensation possible for freelancers (Austria or international)

Learning:

  • Direct collaboration with Miro (10+ years engineering in finance)
  • Build AI agent systems from scratch, not maintain legacy code
  • Work directly with design partners (CFOs, finance teams)
  • Shape product and technical architecture decisions

Growth:
