Your role in the team

  • You design, develop, and operate agent-based AI systems that automate real workflows in our tax consulting and accounting software.
  • Thereby, you translate complex technical processes into production-ready, autonomous, or semi-autonomous workflows — with clear responsibility for architecture, design, and technical implementation.
  • Your goal: robust systems in production, not prototypes.
  • You design and implement goal-oriented, agent-based workflows that independently break down tasks into executable steps and operate across multiple systems.
  • You integrate AI agents directly into existing software solutions for tax consulting and accounting, enabling them to operate on real end-to-end processes.
  • You define autonomy boundaries and assess where fully autonomous execution makes sense and where Human-in-the-Loop remains necessary.
  • You design the shared Agentic Platform, including reusable patterns for orchestration, state handling, memory, and evaluation.
  • You implement guardrails, validation mechanisms, and observability for non-deterministic components such as LLMs.
  • You utilize AI-supported development workflows (e.g., AI coding agents, automated testing, documentation generation) as a core part of your daily work to enhance quality and speed.
  • You work closely with software engineers, platform teams, and subject matter experts from tax and accounting, serving as the technical reference for agent-based AI decisions.

Our expectations of you

Qualifications

  • You have already built agent-based systems - including orchestration, state handling, and tool integration - and are familiar with frameworks such as Koog, Pydantic AI, LangChain, or LangGraph.
  • You are able to handle the uncertainty of LLM-based systems and know how to effectively combine automation with Human-in-the-Loop.
  • You are ready to familiarize yourself with the Tax & Accounting domain and communicate clearly and structured with non-technical subject matter experts.
  • You speak German excellently and English well.

Experience

  • You have a strong software engineering background with architectural responsibility and experience in operating complex, distributed systems.
  • You bring extensive practical experience with Java and Kotlin in production JVM systems.
  • You are proficient in Python for Agent Logic and Evaluation and have experience with cloud-native systems on Microsoft Azure.

What we offer

  • You will receive a permanent employment contract with an international company as well as a company pension scheme with personalized advice.
  • 30 days of vacation, flexible working hours, and the opportunity to work remotely on designated days – this job fits your life.
  • You can work flexibly abroad for up to 20 days within twelve months.
  • We support you with structured onboarding, learning on the job, international career opportunities, and internal as well as external training.
  • Our corporate benefits program offers you everything from JobRad to life and pension counseling.
  • Additionally, you will receive an extra day off, the Volunteer Day, to support social projects.
  • With our program "Wolters Kluwer hilft," we, as a company, also support social projects.
  • You work with high-performance IT equipment, at modern workstations with a shared desk system, free beverages, and in well-connected office buildings.
  • At our employee events and through our employee referral program, you experience genuine camaraderie.
  • Short decision-making paths, flat hierarchies, and room for your ideas are a matter of course for us.
