Your mission

As the Data & AI Engineer Working Student, you will join a specialized team working at the intersection of engineering and venture capital. You will work side-by-side with VC investors, AI researchers, and developers to build the backbone of our investment intelligence. 

This is a high-impact, hands-on role. You will be treated as a full member of the team,  expected to contribute code and structures that solves real business problems and leverages state-of-the-art AI methods. The goal is to automate tedious workflows and turn experimental concepts like LLM agents and complex data reasoning into production-grade tools.

Expand Our Data Scope: You will build the pipelines that feed our investment engine, integrating diverse sources—from niche APIs to web data—to ensure we capture the latest data and insights.
Turn Noise into Signal: You will transform raw, unstructured inputs into high-quality assets, ensuring our systems are fed with the clean, ready-to-use information.
Engineer AI-Driven Pipelines: You will support applying LLM logic directly into our data workflows, treating it as a transformation step to automatically extract structure, tags, and meaning from raw text at scale.
Operationalize Prototypes: You will help build the serving infrastructure and orchestration layers required to turn experimental models into reliable, high-performance tools that handle real-world data loads.

Your profile

• You are currently enrolled in a Master’s program in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related field.

• You are comfortable writing clean, modular Python code (beyond simple notebooks). You know your way around standard libraries like pandas and requests.

• You understand how to interact with REST APIs, handle authentication, and work with flexible data structures (especially JSON and NoSQL/SQL databases).

• You are familiar with Git version control and the command line. You care about writing code that is readable, reusable, and reliable.

• You are curious about the engineering side of AI like how to integrate LLM APIs, Vector Databases, or RAG workflows into actual products.

• You are interested in startups, entrepreneurship, and/or venture capital.

What we offer

• Ownership – A unique opportunity to help define, build, and mold our firm's data and AI function. 

• Mentorship – You will be paired directly with the Data & AI Team Lead for 1-on-1 sessions, helping you transition from a student to a professional.

• Network – Work from the Munich Urban Colab. You will have access to the wider UnternehmerTUM ecosystem, connecting you with leading startups, industry experts, and investors.

• Competitive Salary: We offer a competitive package with the flexibility to align your working hours with university exams and deadlines.

• VC Insights - You will participate in the educational track of our VC Trainee Program, giving you an exclusive deep dive into how investors analyze startups and markets.

• Office Perks - Join our free sports classes, monthly team lunches, access to Makerspace for your personal projects, and regular events in a dynamic environment.
