AI is transforming every industry, but it stops at the factory gate. The knowledge that holds manufacturing together - part costs, suppliers, materials - is scattered across systems and people. Over 50% of a product's cost originates from suppliers, making procurement the single largest cost lever in manufacturing and the missing connection between the digital and the physical world. Yet it still runs on Excel and legacy systems. We're changing that with our Procurement Intelligence Platform, trusted by hundreds of companies running billions of Euros of material.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 by &gt;€50m from Sequoia, Index, and Europe's leading tech entrepreneurs and industry veterans.<h2>Why It Matters</h2>Manufacturing forms Europe's economic backbone, driving a fourth of Europe's GDP and providing over 30% of jobs. These hidden champions and global market leaders manufacture the physical world around us, from the machines that build our cities to the medical devices that save lives.But the world is changing. The US dominates the digital world of bits. China is scaling the world of atoms, manufacturing at unprecedented speed and scale. Geopolitics are more uncertain than ever. Europe's strength lies in its deep industrial knowledge through generations of engineering. Manufacturing worldwide runs on European machines and software. But that heritage is only an advantage if we leverage it in the age of AI. Tacto builds the AI that connects Atoms and Bits, empowering our Industrial Base to Stay Stronger and building a lighthouse for European tech.<h2>What We Offer</h2>The people at Tacto are passionate about building the organization, growing themselves, and our product while having fun and being real. We have high expectations, great talent density, and a culture where your ambition, performance, and agency are what count - not where you come from or how big your ego is. You'll grow at the forefront of AI, have real ownership and impact, and be surrounded by the best people in their field who challenge you and make you better every day. That is demanding and rewarding, but that's where we thrive. Besides that you have:<ul style=""><li>Money: Competitive salary &amp; equity in the company with real upside, so you are invested in our success</li><li>Workplace: A vibrant in-office culture (&gt; 4 days/week) in a beautiful office in central Munich</li><li>Development: A development budget and regular exposure to exceptional people, e.g., Lunch &amp; Learns, peer mentoring, external speakers</li><li>Time off: 26 + 4 vacation days per year (4 fixed “company rest days”) as well as regular off-sites and team events</li><li>Health: Wellpass membership, of course, a fruit basket (!), and access to Jobrad, for your health</li><li>Family &amp; Social Security: Voluntary pension contribution, voluntary KITA subsidy for your children</li></ul>Tacto is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, or gender identity. Please do not submit personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, data concerning your health, or data concerning your sexual orientation.
