Job description
Your mission
This is a generalist finance role working directly with the CFO across everything that touches money: capital raises, FP&A, investor reporting, financial modelling, and ad-hoc strategic analysis. You won’t sit in a silo. You’ll be in the room for prepping board meetings, investor calls, and strategic decisions from day one. Ideal for someone coming out of investment banking, PE, or VC who wants to build something instead of advising on it.
What You’ll Do
Support fundraising processes end-to-end: data rooms, investor materials, financial models, due diligence coordination
Own recurring FP&A: monthly reporting, budget tracking, variance analysis, and cash flow forecasting
Build and maintain financial models for unit economics, scenario planning, and strategic decisions (build vs. lease, pricing, capacity expansion)
Prepare investor updates, board decks, and KPI dashboards
Handle ad-hoc finance and strategy projects: grant applications, partnership economics, contract analysis
Work with external accountants, auditors, and legal counsel on compliance, tax, and corporate housekeeping
Your profile
What We’re Looking For
1-3 years in investment banking, private equity, venture capital, corporate finance, or a high-growth startup finance team
Excellent financial modelling skills (Excel/Sheets)
Strong attention to detail and ability to synthesise complex information into clear narratives
Comfortable operating in ambiguity. You’ll often define the problem before solving it
Fluent in English; German is a strong plus
Genuine interest in infrastructure, cloud, or AI markets
Why us?
Outstanding team: Work with some of the best engineers in the world, coming from hedge funds, big tech, AI startups and top universities
Once in a lifetime opportunity: Early-stage company in the fastest-growing market in the world
Ownership: Shape how European AI companies access GPU compute
European mission: Build sovereign, GDPR-compliant AI infrastructure for the next generation of deep-tech
