We started with a clear objective: eliminate chick culling on a global scale through early, non-invasive in-ovo sex detection. This outdated practice still impacts billions of lives, and we're here to change that. Today, our systems are already in use, and the focus is on scaling performance, robustness, and deployment across an international customer base. For us, scaling means more than growth. It means changing an industry for the better. We are looking for people who take ownership, think in systems, and want to help turn a working product into the industry benchmark. If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you ## What We're Looking For We're looking for a hands-on Finance & Operations Associate to keep the financial and operational engine of a fast-scaling deep-tech company running smoothly. You'll work side by side with the Head of Finance in a small team, which gives you broad exposure across finance and operations from day one and real room to grow into more. Please note that this role requires professional-level German (C1 or above), as our finance, tax, and administrative processes run in German. You bring finance fundamentals, a structured way of working, and genuine curiosity about how a business operates end to end. You see what needs to happen, take initiative, and enjoy working openly in a fast-moving, international team that's growing together. You take ownership, hold yourself to a high standard, and care about getting the details right, because in finance and operations they matter. You communicate openly, give honest feedback, and build trust through your actions. You believe the best work happens in an environment where people support each other, share knowledge, and grow together. ## What You'll Own - Run day-to-day finance operations on the payables side: accounts payable, payment runs, and a clean, on-time procure-to-pay process - Support our outgoing invoicing process, from creating and issuing customer invoices through to tracking receivables and incoming payments - Support the monthly closing and prepare our financial investor reporting, working closely with the Head of Finance and our external accountants - Track budgets and actuals across cost centers and flag deviations early - Act as the internal counterpart to our external accountants and tax advisor on year-end audits and tax filings - Help level up our finance stack and processes, from DATEV workflows to spend-management and finance tooling. You won't just run processes, you'll design your own - Own non-tech procurement, from sourcing and ordering through to vendor and contract management - Manage employee travel arrangements and expense reporting - Take on general company administration that keeps the team running, from office-related purchasing to ad hoc operational tasks ## What You Bring - 1 to 2 years of experience in finance and/or operations, ideally in a startup or fast-paced environment. Strong, relevant internship experience counts too if you're a fast learner - Fluent German and English, German at C1 level or above. This is a hard requirement: our finance and administrative processes run in a German-language context (DATEV, tax advisors, audits, vendor and authority communication) - A solid grasp of accounting fundamentals and a working understanding of how P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow connect. Bookkeeping is handled externally, but you know what's happening behind the numbers - Hands-on exposure to procure-to-pay processes and purchasing, ideally including hardware - Familiarity with DATEV and comfort with spend-management or finance tools - A strong numerical sense and confident Excel skills - A structured, detail-oriented way of working paired with a proactive, ownership-driven mindset. You identify what needs to happen next and take it on - You communicate openly, enjoy working in an international team, and are eager to grow alongside it Not ticking every box? That's okay. One exception to the above: German at C1 level or above is required for this role. If this role excites you and you bring most of what we've described, we want to hear from you. ## Why Us Mission & Technical Challenge: At Omegga, you work on problems that are both technically demanding and globally relevant. We build deep-tech solutions with real-world impact, pushing the boundaries of what's currently possible. Relocation Support: Moving to Munich? We help you find an apartment in the Werksviertel within walking distance of the office. We connect you with the right contacts and take the stress out of apartment hunting. Work Environment: Located in Munich's Werksviertel, this is an on-site role. You'll work closely with the team in a focused, high-performance culture where finance and operations sit at the heart of how the company runs. Ownership: VSOPs (Virtual Stock Options) so you share in the value you help create. Time Off: 28 vacation days per year, plus December 24th and 31st off. ## Benefits & Growth - Monthly meal budget for whatever keeps you going, from quick lunches to proper team dinners - Monthly perks budget to spend where it actually matters to you: fitness, mobility, or the occasional "I earned this" purchase - Annual learning budget to invest in your growth, from conferences to deep dives into new domains - Free drinks, coffee, and snacks in the office to keep you focused throughout the day ## About Omegga ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Omegga develops a non-invasive, AI-powered spectroscopy solution for early-stage in-ovo sex detection of chicken embryos to eliminate the practice of culling male chicks. - **Entity Type**: Private (Seed stage) - **Headquarters**: Munich, Germany - **Founded**: 2020 - **Founders**: Katharina Maria Hesseler (CEO), Paul Günther (Co-Founder), Till Nöllgen (Co-Founder & Technischer Geschäftsführer) ## Core Business - **Primary industry/industries**: AgTech (Agricultural Technology), Biotechnology, Animal Welfare Technology - **Target customers**: B2B – Hatcheries, egg-laying farms, and poultry industry operators, primarily in regulated markets (e.g., Germany, France, EU). - **Mission or purpose statement**: To accelerate the world’s transition to culling-free egg production and become the leading global provider for in-ovo sexing, making poultry farming more ethical and resource-efficient. ## Products & Services - **OmeggaOne System**: A hardware-software solution integrating a rotating measurement arm into existing hatchery incubator infrastructure. It uses visible light to non-invasively scan embryonated eggs every 5 hours from incubation day 3-6. Collected data is uploaded to the cloud, where an AI model determines the sex of the embryo by day 7. Male and unviable eggs are then removed and repurposed for secondary use (e.g., vaccine industry), freeing up over 50% of incubator space. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly available. - **Key Metric**: Total funding of ~€12.4M USD. - **Notable Investors/Partners**: IQ Capital, Capnamic, EIC Fund, OMA Ventures (ex-ProGlove founders), Getty Labs, Rockstart AgriFood, EIT Food, StartLife, and the European Innovation Council (EIC). - **Growth Signals**: - Awarded €2.4 million in non-dilutive funding from the European Innovation Council (top 4% of applicants). - Completed large-scale industry pilots with German hatchery Gut Averfeld. - First customer fully equipped with the OmeggaOne System in 2025, with further customer implementations ongoing. - Hosted 70+ customers and industry experts for live demonstrations in Münster. - Currently doubling team size (14 employees as of mid-2026, +40% YoY). - Featured in major television formats and at trade fairs like EuroTier 2024 and VIV Europe 2026. ## Competitive Advantages - **Cost-Effectiveness**: Core technology uses visible light (“Nothing is cheaper than light”), making it affordable, fast, and precise. It requires no consumables like chemicals or needles and no additional personnel. - **Non-Invasive & Early**: The method is purely optical and non-invasive, ensuring no harm to the embryo. Sex is determined by day 7 of incubation, well before the embryo can feel pain, and early enough to repurpose eggs efficiently. - **Regulatory Alignment**: Directly addresses bans on chick culling in Germany (2022) and France (2023), and anticipates an EU-wide ban. Offers hatcheries a compliant, economically viable alternative. - **Scalable Integration**: The measurement arm is designed to integrate into existing hatchery incubator infrastructure, minimizing disruption and capital expenditure for customers. - **Patented Technology**: Holds at least one patent for its measuring system and method (filed August 2023). ## Strategic Focus - **Market Expansion**: After successful piloting and first customer deployment in Germany, the company is moving toward broader market availability (targeting the German market in 2025, now scaling). - **Product Development**: Continuing to refine the OmeggaOne system, with a focus on reliability, speed, and integration at scale. - **Team Scaling**: Actively hiring to double the team, focusing on robotics, deep learning, mechanical engineering, and customer-facing roles to support commercial growth. - **Global Ambition**: Aiming to become the leading global provider for in-ovo sexing, with sights set beyond poultry into broader spectroscopy applications. ## Why Work Here - **Mission-Driven Impact**: The company’s core purpose is to solve a massive ethical and environmental problem—the culling of 7 billion male chicks annually. Employees directly contribute to a more humane and sustainable food system. - **High-Growth Environment**: The company is in a rapid scaling phase (doubling headcount, new funding, first commercial customers), offering significant ownership, responsibility, and career growth opportunities. - **Interdisciplinary Team**: The team comprises entrepreneurs, engineers, veterinarians, and industry experts, creating a rich, cross-functional learning environment. - **Location & Perks**: Based in Munich, Germany. The company is backed by top-tier European VCs and has a strong engineering culture focused on robotics, AI, and hardware. Specific remote/hybrid policy is not publicly detailed, but the hands-on nature of the hardware suggests a strong on-site presence. - **Recent Funding & Stability**: A recent €10M equity round led by IQ Capital and Capnamic, plus non-dilutive EIC funding, provides a strong financial runway for the upcoming growth phase. ## Sources 1.
