• Company pension plan with 20-25% employer top‑up and full protection under the statutory pension‑security scheme
• Employer funded BU disability insurance from day one

LEASETEQ builds the orchestration brain for mid‑market car leasing and asset finance in the DACH region. Our platform automates the full contract lifecycle – from origination and credit decision through to end‑of‑term – using Flowable BPM as the core process engine on a modern, event‑driven microservices architecture. We are an AI‑first engineering team: agents, intelligent workflows and LLM‑augmented automation are how we build today, not items on a future roadmap. From our base in Switzerland and our subsidaries in Austria and Germany, you join a small, senior team where your decisions have visible impact on customers, partners and the future of our product.
