About Limetax
Limetax is building the operating system for the €20B German tax advisory industry. We acquire established tax firms and transform them into high-performing, technology-enabled businesses. We combine proprietary software, streamlined operations, and a strong group infrastructure to unlock value that traditional firm owners can't access alone.
Our founding team brings together backgrounds in investment banking, venture building, and applied AI. We're a small, fast-moving team backed by top-tier investors. Our mandate is clear: acquire firms, make them measurably better through technology, and scale. Every person we hire has real ownership and direct impact on outcomes.
The Role
Turn real-world tax advisory work into executable systems.
Tax firms don't fail because of bad UI. They fail because workflows evolved over decades and were never designed as systems. You will deeply understand how tax advisors actually work and rebuild those workflows into scalable, reliable, digital processes. At Limetax, process is the product - and you own it end-to-end.
What You'll Own
Who You Are
Why Limetax
Our Process
We read every application and move quickly when we find the right person. There will be a few conversations and a practical case. We only make offers when we're confident it's the right fit for both sides.
This role is based in Berlin. We work in-office.

The Role
Turn real-world tax advisory work into executable systems.
Tax firms don't fail because of bad UI. They fail because workflows evolved over decades and were never designed as systems. You will deeply understand how tax advisors actually work and rebuild those workflows into scalable, reliable, digital processes. At Limetax, process is the product - and you own it end-to-end.
What You'll Own
- Analyze workflows across accounting, payroll, reporting, and client communication.
- Identify bottlenecks, handovers, failure modes, and unnecessary manual work.
- Rapidly design and build MEPs / MVPs to automate and validate workflows.
- Implement workflow systems using n8n, Temporal, or custom backend services.
- Collaborate closely with tax advisors and engineers in tight feedback loops.
- Own the transition from prototype to hardened production workflow.
- Work directly with the CTO and COO on process identification, building, and shipping.
- Decide deliberately when UI matters - and when it's just an implementation detail.
Who You Are
- Think in processes, states, and failure modes - not screens.
- Have built workflow-heavy or automation-driven systems before.
- Enjoy prototyping fast, learning from reality, and hardening what works.
- Are product-minded but deeply technical.
- Like owning problems from discovery through production operation.
- Are comfortable in a TypeScript-first stack.
Why Limetax
- You help re-engineer how an entire profession operates. Process is the product and you own it end-to-end.
- Real production data, real feedback, tight loops with domain experts doing the actual work.
- A rare chance to productize a traditionally non-digital, high-stakes domain - operationally, intellectually, and technically demanding by design.
- €4M+ seed funding and founders with a proven track record. You join at the moment things are being built for real.
- Flat hierarchy, high trust, direct access to founders. No bullshit, no layers between your work and its impact.
- Competitive compensation and early equity.
