• After 14 years in construction tech, Lea & Jonas are building the intelligence layer for the construction industry

You will bring structure to core finance operations, improve financial processes and reporting, and help build scalable systems that support the company’s growth from day one.

About Us

Lea and Jonas scaled two of Europe's leading construction tech companies - Capmo and alcemy - and saw firsthand the challenges holding the industry back. Now they're tackling the root cause: the 50% of construction work still lost to manual data handling.

Kuro is the the intelligent project data system for construction. We're reimagining how construction professionals get work done and make decisions by leveraging AI to augment back-office workflows and make core data accessible.

After one year on the market leading construction enterprises with a combined construction volume >30 billion annually use Kuro everyday to automate workflows and make faster, better decisions.

We are 14 people based in Berlin. You will join a group of ex-technical founders and builders that are ambitious and kind.
