Senior Software Engineer, Billing & Monetization

We are looking for a skilled and passionate Senior Software Engineer, Billing & Monetization to join our Billing team in the Amsterdam office. Working in a high-growth scale-up, you’ll have the unique opportunity to drive innovation at scale while contributing to a company transforming the world of audit and finance. ABOUT THE ROLE: Every customer's path through DataSnipper, from first sign-up to first agent run to renewal, runs on the systems this team owns: how customers get in, what they are entitled to, and how AI usage turns into revenue. As we move from seats to usage and credits for our agentic products, these systems become as strategic as the product itself, and they have to be fast, accurate and trustworthy. This is a hands-on role for an engineer who cares about correctness as much as speed, and wants to see the commercial impact of their code. WHY DATASNIPPER? The hardest AI problems aren't about getting an answer fast. They're about getting one people can trust. We believe trust is essential to how society works. Every day, we rely on information that's been independently verified, from financial statements to the products we buy, to the sustainability claims companies make. Behind that trust are audit and finance professionals who examine evidence, verify information and hold organizations accountable. At DataSnipper, we build AI solutions that empower those professionals. By making evidence easier to trace and verify, we help them focus on the judgment and expertise that make their work so important. For our product and engineering team, this is where things get exciting. In audit, a plausible answer isn't good enough. Every output has to be explainable and traceable back to its source. We've just launched a brand new agentic platform, Alwin by DataSnipper. AI agents running in the cloud across hundreds of documents at once, reasoning across PDF, Word and Excel, with a full audit trail behind every step. There are lots of greenfield problems ahead, and real room to shape what we build and how we build it. And we build at scale. More than 600,000 professionals across 3,000+ organizations in 175 countries rely on DataSnipper, including Fortune 500 companies, government agencies and all Big Four audit firms. In 2025 alone, the DataSnipper platform delivered more than $1.4 billion in productivity savings to is customers. Backed by a $100 million Series B led by Index Ventures, at a $1 billion valuation, and as proud members of 1% for the Planet, we care about how we grow, not just how fast. If you want to build AI that professionals trust with work that really matters, this is your chance to help shape the future of audit and finance and do the best work of your career along the way.
