AI Inhouse Consultant (f/m/d)

Upvest

At Upvest, we are on a mission to make investing as easy as spending money. Upvest empowers businesses to offer a wide range of investment products and the best experience in the field of capital market investment and retirement planning. Upvest's Investment API is easy to integrate so that fintechs and financial institutions can save resources and fully focus on their core business. We are proud to partner with Europe's leading fintechs and financial institutions such as DKB, Revolut, N26 and Raisin. Founded in 2017 by Martin Kassing, Upvest now brings together over 270 talented professionals from more than 70 nationalities. We're backed by world-class investors such as Hedosophia, Sapphire, Bessemer Venture Partners, BlackRock, Earlybird, HV Capital, Notion Capital, and Motive Ventures. ABOUT THE ROLE As we enter our next stage of growth, we are looking for an exceptional Applied AI Engineer to join our Engineering team, reporting directly to Yurii Opryshko and working closely together with our SVP Engineering Roberto Fajardo, as well as our business functions. This is a senior individual contributor role at the frontier of how Upvest leverages AI to fundamentally change how our teams work. AI is reshaping how financial infrastructure companies operate — and at Upvest, we're moving fast. As our first dedicated Applied AI hire, you won't be joining a function: you'll be building one. Own our AI implementation at Upvest You will identify where AI creates the most leverage across the business, help select and integrate the right tooling, and ship solutions that teams actually use. This is a hands-on senior IC role with direct impact on how 290+ people work every day. You will connect our AI tools to Upvest's internal systems, integrating Claude and other LLMs with our internal tools, APIs, and data sources via the Model Context Protocol (MCP), building lightweight integrations where needed, and expanding that connectivity as our use cases grow. You'll identify high-impact automation opportunities, build end-to-end workflows using tools like n8n, and make pragmatic calls about when a simple automation beats a complex agent. You lead with the opportunity, not the technology. Work as in-house AI consultant and with each Upvenger to shape their daily work Equally important is your role as an in-house AI consultant. You'll work 1:1 with others across the business, from engineers to operations to client facing teams, helping them rethink and optimise how they work with AI. You'll run discovery sessions, write internal playbooks, and coach colleagues on prompt engineering and AI tooling. Upvest is a BaFin and FCA regulated firm. You understand the constraints that come with that and know how to navigate data privacy, compliance, and audit requirements without needing to be convinced they're real. WHAT YOU BRING * AI Native: Hands-on experience shipping AI agents and building end-to-end automations with tools like n8n. You move fast and stay current. * MCP experience: You've built or worked with MCP servers and know how to connect LLMs to internal tools, APIs and data sources. * Coaching mindset: You've upskilled non-technical teams on AI tooling and driven real adoption — not just built and handed off. * Pragmatism: You define ROI, iterate, and ship — you don't over-engineer. A simple deterministic automation beats a complex agent when appropriate. * Business acumen: You connect technical work to business outcomes — you think in terms of impact, not just implementation. * Stakeholder skills: You can run discovery sessions and present confidently to senior, non-technical audiences. * Regulated industry experience: You've worked in fintech or a closely adjacent field and understand compliance constraints first-hand. * Background: 5+ years in a scale-up, in roles such as solutions engineer, technical consultant, AI product engineer, or similar. * Location: Based in Berlin (mandatory). English required; German a plus. This is not a data science role. We are looking for someone who applies and deploys AI, not someone who trains models or builds ML pipelines. HOW WE UPVEST IN YOU * Best-in-class AI tools: Every Upvenger has €20,000 per year to spend on the best AI tools available — so you're always working with the most powerful models and tooling on the market. * Work with experts: Join a mission-driven engineering team solving hard, real-world problems at the intersection of AI and regulated financial infrastructure. * Professional development: Access an annual budget of €1,500 for personal and professional training to master your craft. * Wellbeing: Recharge with 30 days of annual leave and maintain a healthy lifestyle with sports benefits. Access confidential professional coaching and enjoy the flexibility to work remotely abroad for up to 183 days a year. * Compensation and equity: We believe that all Upvengers contribute to our success and deserve a competitive, above-market salary and a participation in our employee equity program. * Flexible work environment: This role is based in Berlin. We are committed to flexibility — we understand you don't always have to be in the office to do your best work. * Team celebrations: Participate in company-wide events such as UpFest, dinners, offsites and our holiday party to connect with colleagues and celebrate our achievements. OUR VALUES * Make it easy for others. We simplify the complex and act with the best intentions. * Own the outcome. We are proactive, fast and confident to get the job done, valuing progress over perfection. * Rise to the challenge. We aim high and push the boundaries. We stay curious, learn and celebrate our wins together. * Tell the story. We start with the Why to align on purpose. We are transparent and share knowledge to empower and inspire others. Upvest is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

You work with a modern, AI-native toolstack - from LLM-powered environments (e.g. Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT) and agentic workflow tools (e.g. n8n, Lovable) to coding assistants and automation platforms - and communicate findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Familiarity with SQL or Python remains a plus, but the ability to leverage AI tools to accelerate analysis and delivery is what we value most. * Project delivery: Take ownership of project workstreams and ensure high-quality, timely delivery in alignment with overall project goals. Work collaboratively within interdisciplinary teams across consulting, data, and tech functions. * Data & AI solutions: Support the development of data strategies, AI use cases, and business intelligence solutions, contributing to governance frameworks and implementation roadmaps where relevant. * Knowledge sharing & collaboration: Contribute to a strong team culture by sharing knowledge, staying up to date with digital and AI trends, and supporting continuous team development. * Business development & thought leadership: Actively contribute to Artefact’s growth in Germany - supporting client proposals, shaping new service offerings, and creating intellectual capital such as frameworks, point-of-views, and benchmarks that strengthen our market position.   CANDIDATE PROFILE At our heart, we define ourselves by a culture of ownership, intellectual curiosity, and cooperation. We are looking for driven, capable talents who bring strong motivation and curiosity for new challenges.  * Experience: You have at least 2–3 years of experience in management consulting, technology consulting, or in-house corporate strategy roles, with a proven track record of participating in data/AI strategy, cloud transformation, or applied AI/Machine Learning projects. * Education: A completed university degree (Bachelor’s or Master's) in Business Administration, Economics, Computer Science, Business Informatics, Physics, Mathematics, or a comparable quantitative field. * Data & AI Fluency: You possess a strong affinity for data management and modern AI technologies. You are familiar with concepts like Generative AI, LLMs, or predictive analytics and are eager to bridge the gap between business needs and AI deployment. Ideally, you have hands-on experience in AI use case conceptualization or data platform tracking. * Business & analytical mindset: You combine strong analytical skills with a business-oriented perspective. You enjoy identifying business problems and translating them into practical AI and data-driven solutions. * Technical skills: You are confident working with PowerPoint and Google Slides to produce polished client-ready output. More importantly, you know how to leverage AI tools - from LLM environments to agentic workflows - to run analysis, generate insights, and accelerate delivery. Experience with SQL, BI tools, or programming languages is not a requirement, but comfort with structured data and a hands-on attitude toward new tools is expected. * Communication & collaboration: You communicate complex technical topics clearly in both German and English. You enjoy working in interdisciplinary teams and collaborating across different levels and functions (e.g., translating requirements between business stakeholders and data scientists). * Personal attributes: You are proactive, structured, and solution-oriented, with a strong client focus and stakeholder understanding. You thrive in dynamic environments and enjoy solving complex problems. * Languages: Business-fluent German and English are required - you will participate in client workshops, present to senior stakeholders, and write deliverables in both languages. Additional languages are a plus. * Work Eligibility: A valid work permit for Germany.   WHY ARTEFACT? * Impactful client work: Work on challenging projects with leading national and international clients across data, digitalisation, and advanced data strategy. * Career growth opportunities: We believe in performance over tenure. Your growth is driven by your impact, not your length of service, with clear opportunities to progress and diverse career prospects. * Competitive rewards: A strong compensation package including a performance-based bonus, which is paid out half-yearly. * Learning & development: Join a team of passionate Data Consultants who actively support each other. You'll learn through diverse projects, collaboration, and exposure to leading experts in the field - including international work. * Flexibility & time off: Hybrid working model, 28 days of annual leave, plus your birthday as well as Christmas & New Year's Eve off.   This position is based in Berlin or Munich.
