## Job description

## About Finto

Finto is on a mission to reinvent how enterprises run their finance operations. Starting with AI-powered automation for accounts payable, we eliminate manual invoice handling, supplier chasing, 3-Way-Matching and ERP data entry. Backed by Y Combinator, we're building the future of enterprise accounting. Our mission is to free the world's finance teams from repetitive, low-value tasks so they can focus on impactful work. That starts with building a place where everyone can do their best work. Whether you're building on our platform, partnering with our customers, or shaping our story: We just make things finance teams want.

## About the role

We are looking for a Tech Lead to own the technical direction of our platform and grow with us as the engineering team scales. You'll combine deep hands-on engineering with architectural leadership - setting the standard for how we build, ship, and operate AI-powered finance software at enterprise scale. You'll work directly with our CTO and founding team to make the critical technical decisions that define our product and platform. This is not a management-only role - you'll write code, shape architecture, mentor engineers, and drive the technical roadmap. We're headquartered in Munich, with roots in San Francisco through Y Combinator.

## What you'll do

- Own architecture and technical direction across our platform - from AI pipelines and ERP integrations to frontend and infrastructure.
- Build and ship production features end-to-end, setting the bar for quality, speed, and reliability.
- Drive the technical roadmap together with our CTO, translating product ambitions into engineering plans.
- Mentor and grow engineers on the team - through code reviews, pairing, and setting engineering standards.
- Make pragmatic technology and design decisions that balance speed with long-term scalability.
- Optimize AI model performance and workflow reliability in real-world, mission-critical customer scenarios.

## What we're looking for

- 5+ years of full-stack development experience, with a track record of building and shipping complex products - ideally AI-powered or enterprise-focused.
- Strong JavaScript/TypeScript skills with deep experience in React and Next.js.
- Backend expertise in Node.js or comparable languages like Python or Go, with a focus on scalable APIs and AI-driven services.
- Hands-on experience with AI models and APIs - you've integrated, evaluated, and optimized LLMs in production.
- Proven ability to make sound architectural decisions and own technical direction across a product.
- Experience mentoring engineers and raising the bar for engineering quality in a team.
- A builder's mindset - you care about outcomes, not process, and you ship fast without cutting corners.
- Excellent problem-solving and communication skills in fast-moving, collaborative environments.

Work at Finto

- An environment where we enable you to have an impact and where we focus on outcomes, not time-tracking.
- Career-defining growth: Big ambitions mean rapid progression, expanding responsibilities, and access to our San Francisco & YC network.
- Shape your future role: As an early team member, you define what engineering leadership looks like at Finto.
- 25 vacation days + 2 fixed "company recharge days."
- A vibrant in-office culture (5 days/week) in a modern office.

- **Mission**: Take the manual out of accounting

## Products & Services

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Total funding amount not disclosed; backed by Y Combinator (S25) and the first investors behind OpenAI, Stripe, Dropbox, and Airbnb (per LinkedIn)

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Bias for action, customer obsession, radical candor, and a “truth over comfort” mindset
- **Team**: Small, high‑ownership team (currently ~7 people) – every member has outsized impact
- **Location**: In‑office in Munich (Germany); all roles are onsite
- **Backing**: Top‑tier investors (YC, early backers of OpenAI/Stripe/Dropbox/Airbnb) provide strong validation and network
- **Engineering quality**: “Lead with Technology” is a core value; founders have built companies that raised $75M+ from Sequoia, Index, and Insight
