Job Description

At TYTAN, we aim to set a global standard in autonomous air defense with AI-driven, cost-efficient systems that counter unmanned aerial threats at scale. We protect people. We protect critical infrastructure. We protect European sovereignty.

At TYTAN, finance is not a back-office function. We are building a modern, data-driven finance organization that combines a strong accounting foundation with forward- looking steering, automation, and intelligent use of data and AI.

Your Roadmap to make an impact

As Controller, you will own the controlling and FP&A function in close partnership with the Head of Finance. The foundation is in place: your focus will be on improving and maintaining management reporting, cost structures, and planning processes as TYTAN scales into series manufacturing. This is a hands-on role with a clear path to team leadership as the company grows.

  • Ensure consistency between ERP data (Odoo) and management reporting
  • Maintain and enhance P&L structures, cost center logic, and COGS transparency
  • Analyze deviations between actual, forecast, and budget, explaining key drivers (€ and %)
  • Improve cost allocation across production, R&D, and operations

    Operational & Business Controlling
  • Act as a finance business partner to production, manufacturing, and commercial teams
  • Own project controlling: track budgets, milestones, and margins (customer & R&D projects)
  • Own sales controlling: monitor revenue, order intake, and key KPIs by product and segment
  • Oversee inventory, WIP, and production cost flows in collaboration with Accounting

FP&A: Planning & Forecasting

  • Own and further develop budgeting, forecasting, and rolling forecast processes
  • Build driver-based financial models aligned with operational reality
  • Translate business plans into robust financial forecasts
  • Support short- and mid-term cash flow visibility

    Finance Systems & Data
  • Work hands-on with Odoo as the core ERP and source of truth for financial data
  • Develop structured data models, reporting layers, and automation
  • Leverage automation and AI tools to improve efficiency and data quality
  • Continuously improve finance processes and workflows

    Management Support & Team Development
  • Prepare clear, decision-relevant reporting for leadership
  • Act as a sparring partner to the Head of Finance and department leads on coast development and financial performance
  • Support team growth and help define future roles, support onboarding of new team members and shape team standards

    Job requirements
    Experience and Background
  • Degree in Finance, Controlling, Business Administration, or a related field
  • 3–5 years of experience in controlling, FP&A, or a comparable finance role
  • Experience in a manufacturing, hardware, or operationally complex environment is a strong plus
  • Solid understanding of accounting mechanics and balance sheet logic
  • Fluent in German and English

    Systems & Analytical Skills
  • Strong Excel skills and experience building structured financial models
  • Hands-on ERP experience; Odoo is a plus
  • Interest or experience in financial data modelling, automation, or AI-supported analytics

• Comfortable working close to data and systems, not just presentation layers

Mindset & Working Style

  • Strong ownership mindset: you take responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks
  • Curious and proactive in leveraging AI and automation to improve finance operations
  • Analytical and pragmatic, with a focus on impact over perfection
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-growing and evolving environment where structure is still being built
  • Clear communicator, you can translate complex numbers into actionable insights
