You don't just enjoy writing code — you want to see it used on live deals? You thrive in a fastpaced, dynamic environment where finance meets technology?
Working alongside colleagues from more than 25 countries on cross-border M&A transactions
across Europe is something that excites you? You bring an analytical, solution-oriented mindset
and care about measurable output quality — not vibes?
Then you are exactly who we are looking for — because this is what you will do with us every
day!
As one of Europe's leading mid-market M&A boutiques, we thrive on the energy and creativity
of our people. We are looking for a team-oriented and dependable personality who is
energised by the pace of international dealmaking.
AI & Automation Engineer (f/m/x)
Working Student/Part-time/Full-time
Why you should apply:
• Real users are waiting from week one: deal teams who rely on your tools on live
mandates across multiple jurisdictions.
• You own every tool from spec to production — no hand-offs, no waiting.
• Get a front-row seat to cross-border M&A in Europe's industrial economy, working with
teams in Vienna, London, Istanbul and beyond.
• Paid access to the AI tools and APIs you need to build. You will work directly with the
team driving MP's AI & automation agenda and alongside the deal teams who use the
output.
• Hybrid working hours that flex around your exams.
• Additional benefits such as our MyClubs sports program, company doctor, and
professional development programs.
The gross monthly salary (full-time equivalent) starts at EUR 3,143 and depends on your
qualifications and experience. The actual number of hours is depending on your availability
and can be arranged flexibly.
What you will build:
• Screening tools that read thousands of company websites and sort an M&A longlist into
fits, non-fits and maybes - each with a written rationale.
• Pipelines that extract financials from annual reports, filings and data exports, validate
them, and produce clean Excel outputs.
• Generators for Excel and PowerPoint deliverables along MP's style guide.
• Agent skills and workflows on our AI platform, complete with evaluation sets to measure
the share of correct outputs.
• Small internal web apps including proper access control and documentation in order
for others to run them.
What we expect from you:
• Ongoing or completed Bachelor's or Master's degree in either computer science, data
science, machine learning, engineering or a quantitative field. Alternatively, an
equivalent track record of things you have built — please share GitHub, portfolio or
demo links with your application.
• Solid Python knowledge beyond notebooks, and everyday Git: branches, pull requests,
code review.
• Hands-on work with LLM APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI or open models): prompts for
structured extraction, function/tool calling, and evaluation.
• Basic understanding of REST APIs, JSON and basic SQL.
• Productive use of AI coding assistants (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex)
• Fluency in English; German or another European language is a plus.
• A genuine interest in finance, M&A and the fast-moving world of international
transactions.
• Discretion: you will see confidential deal information.
MP Corporate Finance is an equal-opportunity employer that values diversity. We welcome
applications from candidates with a wide range of backgrounds and experiences.
Are you looking for a challenging working-student position in a dynamic, entrepreneurial
environment where you can make a real impact on international M&A deals? We look forward
