Shine is the financial copilot for entrepreneurs and small business owners.
Founded by serial entrepreneurs Rico Andersen and Martin Hegelund, Shine is a leading European fintech unicorn on a mission to restore the joy of running a business, by ending wasted time on financial admin. Shine offers a connected solution for invoicing, accounting, payroll, business accounts, payments, and financing, meaning business owners can focus their energy on growing a healthy business, not held back by manual admin.
Part of something bigger
Today we're part of Cegid, a European leader in cloud software for finance and accounting. Together we're building Europe's leading financial copilot for small businesses and their accountants.
Shine already supports more than 400,000 small businesses. As part of Cegid, we now reach over one million small businesses and 15,000 accountants across Europe.
We're a multicultural team working from France, Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands, contributing to a wider European network that spans Spain, Portugal and Belgium.
Your hiring experience matters
Just as we respect our customers' time, we respect yours. Your experience with Shine and Cegid should feel simple, transparent and genuinely supportive.
If this sounds like somewhere you want to grow, we'd love to hear from you.
The Advisor Production team at Shine
The Advisor Production team is building AI systems that automate accounting production for accounting professionals. Today, our agentic pipeline is already live in production: it analyzes invoices and proposes double-entry accounting entries for CPA validation. Every proposal is reviewed by a human accountant, making correctness, reliability, and traceability more important than raw speed.
We're now expanding the platform to additional countries, starting with Denmark. Our engineering culture values strong conventions, high ownership, and production-grade AI engineering. Our codebase is a TypeScript/NestJS Nx monorepo with rigorous error handling, structured LLM outputs, and an evaluation framework that ensures every change is measurable.
Your role as an AI Backend Engineer
Automate accounting production for Advisors by turning source documents into proper bookkeeping.
As an AI Backend Engineer, you'll own and improve production AI agents that solve real accounting problems. You'll work across the full stack of agent development—from prompt engineering and evaluation to backend services, orchestration, and production observability.
Your responsibilities will include:
Job located in Berlin, Copenhagen or Amsterdam with the possibility of working remotely up to two days per week.
