(Intern, Technical) Builder in Residence

Responsibilities

• Where you might work
• Depending on the match, you could join one of these teams:
• Product - Define what we build and why. Talk to customers, prototype, prioritize, and ship features that move procurement teams from spreadsheets to AI-native operations
• Design - Own how Tacto looks and feels. Design the patterns for how procurement professionals supervise AI agents - challenges no one has solved before
• Engineering - Build the platform, the agentic systems, and the infrastructure powering autonomous procurement. Modern stack, high ownership, fast feedback loops
• Data Automation - Bridge our platform with customer data. Design pipelines, drive technical onboarding, and make Tacto work end-to-end inside the world's leading industrial companies
• How it Works
• You apply once - this application covers all our technical internship positions
• Tell us your preferences - rank the areas you're most interested in (we ask in the application form)
• First call - we'll come prepared with a clear proposal on which team we think fits best and why. We discuss your skills, our needs, and where you can have the most impact
• Case study - if we move forward, you'll work on a technical case with the team lead from your proposed department
• We match and place you - you join a specific team & are all set to ship from day 1
• Once you're in, you'll work primarily in your team. Depending on interest and capacity, there are usually opportunities to contribute to cross-functional projects as well to broaden your horizon.
• We also host regular events with top-tier founders and speakers from the startup ecosystem - e.g. Andreas Klinger at Lunch & Learn , 2-day AI Hackathon in our office , Basti Schuon at Lunch & Learn - so you get exposure to the full picture of building a startup, not just your corner of it.
• What you need to work at Tacto
• Experience in a fast-paced environment (startup, scale-up, strong technical project, whatever pushed you)
• AI native - you live in Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, v0, Lovable or whatever ships next. You build agents, automate your own workflows, and treat new models as tools to test the day they drop. If your default for a hard problem isn't "let me see what I can do with AI", this isn't the role
• Self-driven + Naturally curious - you don't need hand-holding
• A real builder mindset: you've shipped side projects, contributed to OSS, hacked on AI tools, or built something people use
• Strong communication skills in German and English
• You care about the problem we are solving & are mission-aligned - helping the European Industry to stay competitive in the long-term
• For Design : a portfolio or shipped work that shows taste, systems thinking, and ability to simplify complexity
• For Engineering : comfort with a modern stack (TypeScript, Python, or similar), shipped projects, and an instinct for clean, fast iteration
• Where our previous interns work now
• Our Background
• Based in Munich, we are 100+ passionate builders who are in-office, with high expectations, fast growth, and a lot of fun. We are supported
