About The Role

ABOUT THE ROLE

This is a core operator role working directly alongside the founders of an early-stage B2B AI startup, owning high-leverage workstreams across the full breadth of the company. You'll have real end-to-end responsibility — not just support — and a clear path toward senior operating or founding-level scope.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Own and run cross-functional projects spanning finance, operations, compliance, and people.
  • Build and manage internal systems, tooling, and automations that help the company scale efficiently.
  • Lead recruiting efforts end-to-end, including sourcing, interviewing, and onboarding new team members.
  • Support go-to-market initiatives and help bring AI agent products to enterprise customers.
  • Step into whatever the company needs — board prep, vendor management, strategic analysis — as priorities shift.
  • Work daily alongside the founders on the highest-priority problems in a small, fast-moving team.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • 2+ years of experience in generalist, operating, consulting, or founding roles — ideally in early-stage or high-agency environments.
  • Hands-on ability to build internal tooling and automations yourself, not just direct others to do so.
  • Technical background or strong intuition for AI, software, and automation, with the ability to evaluate technical feasibility.
  • Demonstrated experience running cross-functional projects end-to-end with minimal supervision.
  • Experience supporting go-to-market or enterprise customer engagement in B2B settings.
  • Exposure to board preparation, financial reporting, or investor relations is a plus.
  • Familiarity with logistics, supply chain, or enterprise operations is advantageous.
  • Fluency in both German and English is required.
  • High integrity, strong work ethic, comfort with ambiguity, and a genuine aspiration to build something meaningful.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

Competitive salary plus meaningful equity participation. Visa sponsorship is not available — local work authorization is required.

LOCATION

Berlin, Germany — on-site preferred.
