Founder's Associate

We're looking for a Founders Associate to work directly with our CEO. This isn't a support role, it's a critical position at the heart of the company: driving key projects forward, being a sparring partner for the CEO, and getting things done at the right time so he can focus.

You'll own special projects that don't fit neatly into a specific department: things like operational infrastructure, growth projects, competitive intelligence, internal tooling, or whatever the company most needs at a given moment. You'll be the person who clears blockers, connects dots across teams, and makes things happen without needing a playbook.

This role is challenging. The learning curve is steep. You'll work on things outside your comfort zone with limited resources and no playbook. If you want a clearly defined scope, this is probably not the right fit. If you want to learn fast, own real work, and grow with a company that's just getting started: let’s talk!

What you'll actually do

• Own cross-functional projects end-to-end, from scoping to execution to reporting back to the CEO

• Build internal processes and operational infrastructure that scale with the company

• Support strategic initiatives: market analysis, partnerships, fundraising materials, new market entry, etc.

• Work closely with GTM, Product, Engineering and translate between them where needed

• Jump in where there's a fire

• Be the CEO's right hand on whatever matters most at that moment

• You're hungry, entrepreneurial, and excited to join a fast-moving, ambitious team

• You've 1-2 years of experience working in an early-stage startup, VC, or consulting, and you know what it means to operate in such environments

• You don't wait to be told what to do: you identify what needs to happen and make it happen

• You think in systems but bias toward action, you're comfortable making decisions with incomplete information and you iterate fast

• You are stress resistant and composed under pressure, with a high tolerance for shifting priorities and competing demands 

• You can write clearly, structure a problem, and deliver without much hand-holding

• You speak German and English fluently (non-negotiable)

• Bonus if you have some financial fluency - comfort with budgets, models, or business cases

• Direct access to a founder building a category-defining company & a front-row seat to post-seed B2B SaaS - from GTM to product to fundraising

• End-to-end ownership of projects that actually matter

• A team that will bet on you, invest in you, and give you real responsibility fast

• Berlin office and competitive comp for stage
