🚀 Who We Are

At fiskaly, innovation drives us. We're reshaping the landscape of fiscal compliance with our cloud-based solutions for electronic receipts and invoices. Our team thrives on diversity and collaboration, committed to creating a supportive environment where everyone's contributions are valued. Join us to play a key role in our mission.

🎯 The Role

We are looking for a Tech-Savvy Accountant who combines solid German accounting expertise (HGB) with a curiosity for automation.

In this role, you will own the day-to-day accounting for our German entities. However, we are not looking for a "data entry" accountant. We are looking for someone who proactively uses technology, including AI tools, to work smarter, faster, and more accurately.

🛠 What You’ll Do 

• Execute end-to-end bookkeeping and month-end closing for German entities (HGB), validating automated data feeds and focusing your manual effort only on complex accruals and quality control
• Prepare German VAT returns and statutory filings, acting as the primary contact for external tax advisors and using AI tools to assist in drafting correspondence and summarizing regulatory updates efficiently
• Oversee global billing and manage the reconciliation logic between our billing engine and bank feeds, investigating only the exceptions that the system flags rather than manually matching every transaction
• Incorporate AI-assisted tools into your daily workflow to speed up research, data formatting, and communication drafting
• Actively identify manual bottlenecks in our finance processes and propose automated solutions or smoother workflows to reduce repetitive Excel work
• Support the financial setup for our entities in Austria, Italy, and Spain, ensuring our processes remain scalable as we grow

🙌 What You Bring

• 3+ years of professional experience in German accounting (HGB) is mandatory as you need a strong foundation to know what to automate
• A comfort with new software and a mindset that embraces technology, ideally having experimented with AI tools to speed up your own work
• Solid experience with DATEV, with familiarity with SaaS billing tools or spend management software being a strong plus
• A detail-oriented approach that prioritizes efficiency, preferring to build a clean process over doing the same manual task twice
• Fluent German (C2) and strong English (C1)

🌱 What We Offer

• We encourage you to learn and use the latest AI productivity tools, giving you a competitive edge in the future of Finance
• The opportunity to shape how a modern Finance team operates in a scaling European tech company
• A remote-first setup with flexible hours and a trusting culture
• A collaborative, driven, and diverse finance team that values precision, learning, and growth
• 25 vacation days/year if you’re in Austria
• Flexible working hours and a remote work arrangement
• Opportunities for personal and professional development
• Company hardware of your choice (Windows, Linux or Mac)
• A vibrant, inclusive company culture that values your well-being and personal growth
