Join Us
We are selectively expanding our team as we continue building structured capability infrastructure for accounting, tax, and regulated professional services firms.
These are founder-associated roles within a disciplined, product-focused environment. We hire carefully and with long-term intent.
Open Roles
Senior Developer
Platform, Content Systems & AI Tooling
Acuru is entering its next phase of growth. The product is proven, deployed across major enterprise clients including three of the Big 4, and used daily by professionals preparing for demanding qualifications. We are hiring a Senior Developer to help scale and evolve the platform.
You will work across the full stack, contributing end-to-end from idea through to production. A key focus is our learning content engine — the system that powers how technical material is authored, structured, versioned, and delivered at scale. You will help evolve the internal tooling and platform capabilities that underpin the entire learning experience.
We increasingly use AI to enhance learning outcomes and streamline content workflows. You will be involved in building these features pragmatically, integrating large language models where they deliver real educational value.
You will work closely with the CTO and a small, cross-functional team spanning product, AI, customer success, and subject-matter experts, with increasing ownership and influence over technical decisions.
What You'll Do
- Build and maintain full-stack features across the platform, from learner-facing experiences to backend services and data models
- Develop and evolve the learning content engine — how material is created, structured, and delivered at scale
- Create clear, engaging frontend experiences in React with strong attention to UX and learner experience
- Design and extend backend services and APIs using Node.js and PostgreSQL
- Contribute to AI-enabled features including content generation and adaptive feedback
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years of commercial software development experience
- TypeScript/JavaScript, React and/or Next.js, Node.js, PostgreSQL or similar relational database
- Familiarity with Tailwind CSS or similar modern CSS frameworks
- Some experience with AWS or equivalent cloud platforms
- An appreciation for good UX — you notice when things feel awkward and care about fixing them
- Interest in LLMs and AI-enabled workflows, even if hands-on experience is still developing
Bonus: Experience with ed-tech or learning platforms, React Native, startup environments, or direct interaction with enterprise customers.
Location: Dublin / Hybrid / Remote (Ireland-based, with regular visits to Dublin for team planning days).
Founder's Associate
Growth & Product
We are seeking a high-agency, detail-oriented graduate to work closely with the founders across growth, product, and strategic initiatives.
This is a hands-on role. You will roll up your sleeves across research, customer conversations, product refinement, content coordination, fundraising support, and operational execution. No two weeks will look the same.
The role suits a recent graduate with strong analytical ability, excellent written communication, and genuine interest in accounting, tax, or regulated professional services. You will gain direct exposure to how an enterprise product company operates, from customer delivery to fundraising to product strategy.
Location: Dublin / Hybrid.
Why Work With Us
A disciplined environment where individual contributions compound into something meaningful.

Hybrid & Remote Flexibility
Dublin-based with hybrid working. Remote considered for Ireland-based candidates who can attend regular planning days.
Full Equipment Setup

Visible Impact
A small team where every contribution is noticed. Your work ships to real users at major firms.

Increasing ownership and influence over technical and strategic decisions as the platform evolves.
Meaningful Work
Build products that genuinely improve how professionals develop capability in regulated industries.
Don't See the Right Role?
We are a small team solving meaningful problems for professional services firms. The right person matters more than the right job title.
