## Tasks

As a Founder’s Associate focused on Go-to-Market, you’ll work at the frontlines of distribution, outreach, and monetization. Your mission: help turn our existing tech assets into real traction by identifying ideal users, engaging them, and testing what converts.

We’ve recently launched our first public API — a market intelligence engine for discovering competitors, lookalikes, and acquisition targets. If you want to check it out search for "Market Intelligence: Competitors, Lookalikes, and more" on RapidAPI. 

Your job will include finding smart, creative ways to get this API into the hands of the right users — whether agents, internal tool builders, or early adopters looking for structured market data.

We are a young company founded by repeat entrepreneurs who’ve built startups, launched a data-driven VC fund, and supported over 20 early-stage companies across Europe. Now we’re building the foundational data layer for the agentic AI age.

From Day 1, you will:

*   Define and refine Ideal Customer Profiles (ICPs) across segments (startups, scaleups, SMEs)
*   Research and build lead lists using LinkedIn, web data, and internal signals
*   Run structured outbound campaigns (email, LinkedIn, etc.) to test messaging and value props
*   Drive cold outreach and first conversations with high-potential prospects
*   Help evaluate use cases like competitor discovery, acquisition target sourcing, and market mapping
*   Track outreach performance and iterate quickly to improve results
*   Support early pricing, conversion, and onboarding experiments
*   Collaborate with founders to prioritize sales learnings into product feedback

The **ideal outcome** of your internship: we **close new customers** and **find a scalable GTM playbook** for the revenue stream you own.

This is a **fast-paced, results-driven role**. If the fit is strong, a follow-up **working student or full-time offer** is possible.

Note: This **internship does not come with a fixed salary** — but you’ll earn a **generous commission for every deal** you help close. The role is fully optimized for upside.

## Requirements

*   You are currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in Business, Economics, Engineering, or a related field
*   Previous experience in sales, business development, growth, marketing, or customer research is a plus
*   Strong written communication skills — you enjoy crafting crisp, persuasive messages and outbound copy
*   Confident engaging with prospects and users, even in cold outreach settings
*   Structured and analytical thinker — you can track what works and iterate quickly
*   Entrepreneurial mindset: proactive, curious, and outcome-driven
*   Fluent in English (German is a plus)

## Benefits

*   Extreme learning curve through direct collaboration with the founding team — ideal preparation for aspiring founders, go-to-market leaders, or early-stage commercial operators
*   Exposure to frontier topics like agentic systems, LLMs, embeddings, and structured data infrastructure
*   Build a strong portfolio of real deliverables — from ICP definitions and campaign reports to outbound workflows and customer insights
*   Ongoing support after the internship with references, warm intros, and career guidance — past interns have gone on to roles at Anthropic, Lakera AI, Speedinvest, Earlybird, Redalpine, and more
*   Performance-based financial bonus for every deal you directly help close
*   Possibility of a follow-up offer as a working student or full-time team member, depending on fit

This is a voluntary internship for a maximum of 3 months or a mandatory internship (Pflichtpraktikum) as part of a university degree. Please indicate your eligibility in your application.

Remote-first and async-friendly setup — work from anywhere, with full ownership and flexibility.
