Germany

acemate is building the leading AI learning & teaching platform for higher education institutions. We have strong traction, secured funding and are entering an exciting growth phase. We’re now looking for an entrepreneurial generalist to join us as **Founder’s Associate Intern** and help accelerate our growth.

**About acemate**

Founded less than a year ago, acemate has quickly become Germany's leading AI learning platform for universities, trusted by top-tier institutions across three countries, including **TU Munich**, **WHU** and the **Deutsche Industrie- und Handelskammer (DIHK)**.

*   **Our Mission:** Democratizing access to personalized learning. We don’t believe that AI will replace educators. Instead, we empower them to design and deliver personalized learning experiences at scale.
*   **Our Growth:** We've raised pre-seed funding and are growing rapidly. While we focus on higher education today, we're already expanding into new regions and markets.
*   **Our Culture:** We’re a young, driven team passionate about tackling the toughest challenges in education. We embrace builder culture and minimize scheduled meetings for ad-hoc discussions and maximized focus on coding and creating.

**Meet the Team**

We have an office in Berlin and believe in the value of in-person work, but we’re also realistic about the time people spend commuting.

## Tasks

**What You'll Do**

As **Founder’s Associate Intern**, you’ll work directly with Antong (CEO) and Paul (CPO) on high-impact topics across strategy, sales, marketing, product, operations and growth.

**Tasks:**

*   **Drive strategic initiatives:** from market expansion and pricing to new partnerships and product launches
*   **Support the sales cycle:** help identify promising leads, prepare sales calls and play a key role in moving opportunities forward
*   **Boost our B2C presence:** from social media (organic, paid, influencer) to SEO/SEA, referral loops, ambassador programs and other initiatives

*   **Build our brand:** contribute to our content, events, community and thought leadership
*   **Take charge of internal ops:** improve workflows, processes and help us scale internal systems across finance, investor relations and tooling

## Requirements

**What We're Looking For**

*   **Relevant experience:** You’ve worked in startups, consulting, VC, investment banking or other fast-paced, high-performance environments

*   **Analytical mindset:** You’re comfortable with numbers, structured thinking, and turning data into decisions
*   **Excellent communicator:** You’re fluent in **both German & English**, and comfortable leading conversations with users, customers and decision-makers
