Working Student - Controlling (m/f/d)

TYTAN Technologies.

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 Europe’s sovereignty.

As a Working Student in Controlling, you will support the Controller and Head of Finance with hands-on analytical work across budgeting, forecasting, cost analysis, and management reporting. Beyond classical controlling, you will actively use AI tools, write SQL queries, and help build and maintain finance automation (VBA, scripting, internal tools). This is not a filing-and-formatting role: you will work directly with real financial data and real code in a fast-scaling defense company.
