Your mission

This is a generalist finance role working directly with the Head of Finance across everything that touches money: 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

  • 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

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) and day-to-day usage of AI tools
  • 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
