Careers

We're building a unicorn.
Ready to take us there?

M&A shapes industries, capital flows, and the companies that define markets. Inven makes the private market behind those decisions visible.

We built Inven after seeing how much M&A research still depended on manual work. Today, 1,000+ M&A teams use Inven to see the full private market, analyze companies at scale, and turn investment questions into defensible outputs. Named Finland’s AI Startup of the Year and ranked #10 among Europe’s fastest-growing startups by Sifted in 2025, we’re looking for ambitious people to help build the default AI for M&A.

We hire people who raise the bar

Execution is what counts

You're measured by what you ship, not the time you spend shipping it.

High standards, low ego

We hire people who are direct, kind, low-ego, and quick to help a teammate. The common thread is ambition.

We demand excellence, always

You're measured by outcomes, not optics. We trust you to do the right thing for the company and own your work.

Why the best talent chooses Inven, and why they stay

Progression on impact, not tenure

High performers get bigger responsibilities quickly. Promotions, compensation, and bonus are based on impact, not tenure, giving you the chance to grow alongside the company.

Interesting problems never solved before

Most of what we build here has never been built before. You'll solve problems no one has solved — AI-native by default.

Some of the most ambitious, kind, and smart colleagues

We are strict about who joins. Once you're in, the people next to you will be raising the bar above what you thought possible.

Strong in-office culture

With flexibility when you need it. Events, activities, and a daily rhythm built around the team being together.

Own a piece of the company

Real equity through our option plan because the people building Inven should own a piece of it. Help us make this a unicorn, and the upside is yours too.

Low hierarchy. Fast growth.

You see how one of Finland's fastest-growing startups gets built, and your impact in it from week one. The pace is fast and expectations are high.

Backed by top investors. Recognized by the industry.

"What excites me is that at Inven, design sits at the intersection of product strategy and fast-evolving technology. Rethinking how complex workflows can feel intuitive as the product scales is a rewarding challenge, one I get to drive from early sketches to shipped product."

About us

What we’re building

Born from firsthand experience in M&A research, Inven is building the default AI for M&A. Today, 1,000+ investment banks, private equity firms, consultancies, and corporate development teams use Inven to see the full private market, map sectors across 28M+ companies, and turn investment questions into defensible outputs.

2022

Where it began

As analysts at McKinsey and BCG, our founders spent days searching for companies, piecing together ownership and financial data, and rebuilding the same spreadsheets across projects.

They knew there had to be a better way. In 2022, they left consulting to build it.

2023

Seed funding

Inven raised €1.5M in seed funding led by Lifeline Ventures, the VC behind Finnish companies such as Wolt, Smartly, and Supercell.

At the time, it was the largest round ever raised in Finland by a founding team under 25.

2024

7× growth

Inven grew 670% year over year and doubled the team.

The year marked a shift from early traction to global demand, with more M&A teams using Inven to map markets, find off-market targets, and move from research to decision-ready outputs faster.

2025

$12.75M Series A

Inven closed a $12.75M Series A led by Ventech and Vendep Capital, with participation from Lifeline Ventures and Joint Effects.

The same year, Inven was named Finland’s AI Startup of the Year, ranked #10 among Europe’s fastest-growing early-stage startups by Sifted, and reached 1,000+ customers globally.

2026

The part where you join in

Inven is scaling globally to become the default AI for M&A.

We’re expanding across North America and key financial hubs, deepening our work with leading investment banks and private equity firms, and building the infrastructure behind faster, more defensible M&A research. This is the part where you join in.
