Strategy & Operations – Product Growth

Clera · San Francisco, United States

Marketing / Business DevelopmentQuick applyFull-time2 days ago

About The Role

ABOUT THE ROLE

This role sits at the intersection of product, growth, and operations at a well-funded B2B SaaS company building AI-powered procurement intelligence for the manufacturing sector. You will join a small, founder-led team in Munich and own high-leverage, compounding growth loops end-to-end — from hypothesis and whiteboard to prototype, validation, and scale. Roughly 20% of your time will be spent shaping company strategy directly with founders; the remaining 80% is pure autonomous execution. This is a zero-to-one, extreme-ownership position for someone who thinks and moves like a founder.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Identify, design, and build the next compounding growth loop (e.g., supplier referrals, community effects, embedded workflows) from scratch to scalable pipeline.
  • Own organic acquisition through technical SEO and AI-search (GEO) infrastructure, converting procurement queries into pipeline.
  • Concept and ship product-led wedges that drive user acquisition without proportional sales effort.
  • Run rapid 0-to-1 cycles: whiteboard → prototype → validate → scale — and pivot decisively when data demands it.
  • Own growth roadmaps and outcomes with a measurable impact track record, operating without waiting for permission.
  • Contribute to a collaborative, ego-free culture that continuously raises team performance.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Must-haves (dealbreakers)

  • Able and willing to work on-site in Munich 4+ days per week.
  • 3+ years in growth or strategy roles with a proven record of delivering zero-to-one growth loops and scalable initiatives.
  • Experience owning end-to-end growth roadmaps and executing autonomously.
  • Demonstrated ability to build and own an organic acquisition strategy, including technical SEO and AI-search (GEO) infrastructure.
  • Fluency in both German and English.
  • Track record of prototyping, validating, and scaling ideas quickly (whiteboard to validated growth motion).
  • Experience leading product-led growth initiatives and launching product experiences that drive user acquisition.
  • B2B SaaS growth experience within industrial procurement or a comparable enterprise procurement domain.
  • Zero-to-one growth project experience in VC-backed startups or high-growth environments.

Nice-to-have

  • Familiarity with the DACH regional context and AI-first platform implications.
  • Startup or high-growth company experience operating at founder-level pace and ambiguity.
  • Ambition to found a company someday — this team loves to back founders-in-the-making.

LOCATION & WORK ARRANGEMENT

Based in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. This is a full-time, on-site role (4+ days per week in-office). Visa sponsorship is not available.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

Competitive compensation package including equity. Specific salary details will be discussed during the interview process. The company is backed by top-tier European and global venture capital (Series A/B stage).
