Founders Associate HIWI- Fokus Financials & Investor Readiness (w/m/d)

nextAudit is a young B2B software startup from Aachen. Our platform AuditCloud helps companies to digitalize their internal and external audit processes and thereby lift a large data treasure.

Audit can be thought of as a main inspection of the car: The current state is compared with a desired state, and if there are too many deviations, it will be expensive. In the company, an audit can become very complex depending on its type.

The special thing about AuditCloud is the focus on very simple handling and KI approaches to better utilize the collected data. What you would expect in modern apps is often not available in industry, where software still looks like it's from past times (and is sometimes actually older than 20 years).
