AccessOwl, a Berlin‑based YC‑backed startup, seeks a senior TypeScript engineer to build AI‑driven browser automations. The role targets professionals who thrive on solving real SaaS‑management pain points and can scale integration layers to hundreds of tools. Candidates must master JavaScript, TypeScript, and Playwright, and enjoy hands‑on, full‑stack work for the company's future growth.

Applicants will own the integration layer that connects AccessOwl to over 300 SaaS services, adding 300 new connectors this year. They’ll use Playwright to craft browser extensions and RPA flows, and deploy IaC for reliability. The position offers €70 000–90 000 per year, stock options, and fully remote work within three hours of CET for global teams.

AccessOwl tackles the so‑called SSO Tax that makes user onboarding slow by replacing spreadsheets and ticketing systems with AI‑powered workflows. The founder duo, Mathias and Philip, cite frustration with legacy IT operations as the catalyst. Their stack blends Elixir, Phoenix LiveView, Tailwind and TypeScript, aiming to simplify SaaS governance worldwide for enterprise customers everywhere today.

Candidates must have three years of professional web development, proven Playwright or Puppeteer experience, and a bias for TDD, IaC, and continuous delivery. The role promises hands‑on ownership, the chance to influence product direction, and a referral bonus of €3 000 for successful hires outside the termination period. AccessOwl remains profitable and mission‑driven for tech leaders.
