Dexter, a Y Combinator-backed spend intelligence startup, is hiring a Founding Engineer in Berlin to scale its AI-powered procurement analytics platform. The company tackles the $200M-$1B annual spend problem at large enterprises, where procurement teams lack clear visibility into supplier costs and contract terms.

The role involves building autonomous AI agents that extract structured data from invoices and contracts, matching documents and entities to surface actionable insights. Dexter's tech stack centers on AWS and Ruby on Rails, targeting the overlooked intersection of procurement operations and applied AI in enterprise settings.

Candidates need either a technical graduate degree or four years of software experience, plus demonstrated speed, ownership, and customer focus. The position offers €60k-100k base salary plus meaningful equity, with on-site work required four days weekly in Berlin. Remote workers and those seeking well-defined problems need not apply.

Founders Vincent (ex-SoundCloud), Caterina (ex-Uber), and Bella (ex-HubSpot) connected while scaling operations at Dance, recognizing procurement's strategic importance. Backed by YC and experiencing rapid growth, Dexter represents an opportunity to join an early-stage AI company solving concrete enterprise problems.
