Our vision is to become the document knowledge platform for DataSnipper - a shared, cloud-native foundation where every document and everything we extract from it becomes a durable, reusable asset that powers our agents and other products.\nThis is a hands-on engineering role in a high-caliber team that moves fast and holds a high bar. You will build and maintain the ingestion, processing, and extraction pipelines and the platform services that expose them, contribute to architectural decisions, and deliver core parts of the document intelligence platform at DataSnipper.\nYou will work closely with Product, Agent teams, and fellow engineers to deliver high-quality, production-ready solutions.\nAbout DataSnipper\nAudit and finance are still massively manual - and we’re changing that.\nDataSnipper is a $1B, bootstrapped unicorn with 600,000+ users across 180+ countries, already embedded in the daily workflows of top audit and accounting firms. Now, we’re taking things further with our Excel Agent - bringing AI directly into where the work actually happens.\nUnlike generic AI tools, we don’t sit on the sidelines. Our AI operates inside Excel, with access to real documents and audit evidence - meaning it doesn’t just generate answers, it does the work, with full traceability.\nWe’re not just applying AI - we’re redefining how audit gets done. If you want to build something category-defining at scale, this is the place.\nWhat You Will Do\nTechnical Delivery\nBuild and maintain components of the document intelligence platform that deliver best-in-class accuracy, speed, and reliability, with design direction from senior engineers\n\nBuild and maintain the platform APIs and services that expose documents and their extracted intelligence as shared, reusable capabilities for multiple products and workflows\n\nHelp build and operate the cloud document store: a secure, managed store for every document we ingest plus everything we extract, with the metadata, retrieval patterns, and traceability that downstream intelligence requires\n\nIntegrate with AI service providers to power document understanding at scale\n\nBuild AI- and ML-powered extraction capabilities\n\nWork within the integration contracts between platform APIs and consuming teams, and flag gaps early\n\nArchitecture & Quality\nApply well-established design principles within an existing architecture, accounting for document-heavy use cases (large PDFs, mixed formats, high-volume batches)\n\nParticipate in code reviews and follow team best practices\n\nBuild and use quality metrics; repeatable pipelines that score extraction quality on representative production documents to identify gaps and drive measurable improvements\n\nImplement the security and compliance requirements defined for document handling (retention, deletion, access controls, auditability, and regional requirements)\n\nCollaboration & Impact\nBreak down your own work into deliverable increments and surface cross-team dependencies early\n\nWork with product partners to clarify requirements for your workstream and simplify technical approaches\n\nFoster a culture of documentation and knowledge sharing within the team and with business stakeholders\n\nIntegrate AI tools into workflows, critically evaluate AI outputs, and contribute to team-level AI adoption\n\nWhat You Will Bring\nMust-Have\n4-6 years in software engineering, with strong proficiency in C# and/or Python and its ecosystem and tooling\n\nExperience contributing to backend services in production on any cloud platform (we are on Azure)\n\nExperience working on distributed or data-intensive systems\n\nProficient with AI-assisted Engineering (we use Claude Code)\n\nExperience with testing strategies (unit, integration, E2E) and a quality-first mindset\n\nExcellent communication and collaboration skills\n\nComfortable working across the stack: either full-stack experience, or strong backend with genuine willingness to contribute to frontend work\n\nNice-to-Have\nExperience with document processing, analysis, or storage technologies and pipelines\n\nExperience building platform or shared-service capabilities consumed by multiple internal teams and external partners\n\nExperience with Azure services (AI Foundry, Container Apps, Service Bus, Blob storage, Content Understanding)\n\nExperience with LLM-based document understanding and evaluation\n\nWhat We Expect\nOwnership: You own well-scoped work end-to-end, anticipate issues, and ask for guidance on ambiguous decisions\n\nGrowth Mindset: You encourage open feedback exchange and provide clear, balanced feedback that helps others grow\n\nCollaboration: You build strong cross-functional relationships and communicate clearly across functions\n\nAdaptability: You navigate ambiguity calmly, model positive behavior, and help peers adjust through clear communication\n\nJudgment: You escalate early, ask good questions, and deliver reliably against agreed priorities\n\nWhat We Offer\nBe part of one of the fastest-growing, profitable unicorn scale-ups in the Netherlands with a global impact\n\nEquity (Stock Appreciation Rights) to share the company's success and growth\n\nExcellent salary package, competitive for top tech talent\n\nPension plan with a 6% contribution on top of your base salary\n\n28 vacation days per year (full-time) to support your work-life balance\n\nHybrid work model with at least 3 days onsite in our dynamic Amsterdam office\n\nDaily, freshly prepared lunches by our in-house chef to keep you energized\n\nParking and NS card for easy commuting to the office\n\nAccess to continuous learning and development initiatives to grow your skills\n\nEngage with a vibrant international team spread across five global offices\n\nCompany-wide events like DataSnipper GO where global teams come together\n\nAccess to OpenUp, a mental health and wellness platform supporting your wellbeing\n\nFriday drinks and various social activities are designed for team bonding and fun\n\nAt DataSnipper, we believe great ideas come from different perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds. We’re committed to building an inclusive workplace and providing a fair and equitable hiring experience for every candidate.\nWe welcome applicants regardless of age, race, ethnicity, nationality, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, religion, disability, or any other characteristic that makes you, you.\nWhat matters to us is your potential, your experience, and what you can bring to the team!","description_format":"text","description_chars":6503,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":4,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Continuous learning","Equity","Hybrid work"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Netherlands","iso":"NL","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Document AI","Accounting & Tax Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-08-13T16:13:05Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":28,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.636,"p_room":0.44,"age_days":72,"expected_fill_days":59,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-25T05:49:26Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/datasnipper-software-engineer-document-intelligence","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/datasnipper-software-engineer-document-intelligence.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-25T13:38:44Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":19429,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-26T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4724},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4724"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fdatasnipper-software-engineer-document-intelligence"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fdatasnipper-software-engineer-document-intelligence"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fdatasnipper-software-engineer-document-intelligence"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/datasnipper-software-engineer-document-intelligence\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fdatasnipper-software-engineer-document-intelligence"}]}
