What is Steuerboard?
We're building the all-in-one platform for the next generation of tax offices.
here's what that actually means:
the core idea: we build tools that make tax and finance handling much easier by rethinking core disciplines:
Collaboration with clients - its time to get rid of traditional “email ping pong” and phone calls
Data automation - syncing existing data lakes should be one click away
Implementing AI - repetitive tasks shouldn’t be done by people. Let ai agents do the work.
Reporting - manually analyzing big data? Not anymore. Get the next action steps right at your fingertips.
Engineering @ Steuerboard
tl;dr we need someone who can build fast, think big, and doesn't mind wearing multiple hats. You'll be crafting the foundation of a new generation tax platform used by tens of thousands of businesses. If you've ever wanted to see your code shape an entire economy, this might be your jam.
the bigger picture: we are not just doing a “tax application”. We are building the foundation of how european businesses handle finance and tax - one of the most important pillars of our economy. We will not only level up thousands of tax offices but also tens of thousands of businesses.
Our product will be the foundation for the next generation of tax-offices. For this it needs to thread an impossible needle: deep enough for complex data handling, accessible enough to make handling tax easy.
What you’ll actually be doing:
Build impactful features
Collaborative tools that streamline operations between tax offices and clients
A powerful workflow engine that automates core processes
LLM orchestration that delivers reliable results
Pioneering AI agents for tax processing
Writing a ton of code (primarily Typescript/Next.js)
Keeping our stack running (Vercel/Cloudflare/AWS)
Talk to users when they break things
Make quick product decisions
You should probably:
have build things from the ground up with real users (4+ years)
be comfortable with our stack
Typescript, Nextjs, React
LLM APIs (openai, mistral, anthropic, etc.)
enjoy startup life - chaos, a lot of responsibility, fast decisions
have experience building with AI - f.e. you know how complex prompting works and how to get properly structured data back from an LLM
fix things without being asked
care more about the user experience than your nice code
its a bonus if you have been a founder or cto in the past
Real talk:
You are one of the first developers joining our team.
Office only (Düsseldorf) - (Some remote days are completely o.k.)
Lots of work
You will ship to prod day 1
Most of the features you will build don’t have full specs. You need to uncover the unknown requirements.
You have to make ux decisions - We don’t have a designer yet.
Your code will have direct impact on thousands of businesses, using our product daily.
Yes, we do have beer and club mate in our office.
No, we don't have a kicker or ping-pong table—yet.
You are right when you’ve ever
wanted to build something complex from scratch
join an early stage startup that has a lot of traction
wished your work will impact a whole economy
PS: We're backed by remarkable Investors and one of the best VC’s in Europe (announcement coming soon) but we still work like a bootstrapped startup.
