## Description

THE OPPORTUNITY

Tax advisory runs on structured data, recurring work and clear rules, and almost none of it has been rebuilt with modern software. What decides who gets there first is real case data and engineers who build next to the people doing the work.

Vogel advises several thousand mid-sized companies and acquires established advisory firms, developing them further on one shared base. On top of the systems we buy, we build our own software: a data layer above DATEV, the tools our advisors use every day, and agents that take over recurring work. What counts is daily use, on data that is audited and closed.

As one of our first engineers, you build across the whole stack: data pipelines, backend, the interfaces advisors use and the agents on top. You take a problem from the first conversation with an advisor to software that runs every day. We are hiring our CTO in parallel, who will own the architecture and lead the team. You work directly with Moritz Vogel.


WHAT YOU'LL DO

Tools advisors use

 - Sit with tax advisors and accountants on real cases, find where the work gets stuck, and turn it into software they use the next day. Your benchmark: an advisor would miss it if it were switched off.

 - Build interfaces, dashboards and internal tools, from the first prototype to something that runs without you.

 - Ship small and often: a tool in daily use beats a perfect plan.

Data and integration

 - Build the pipelines that move data out of DATEV and our other systems into our own data layer every night, checked from the first day.

 - Define every figure exactly once
