Every project you take on has to clear one bar: a 3-5x return in hours saved, revenue generated, or headcount avoided. If it doesn't clear that bar, we don't build it. This is full-time, in-office in Prenzlauer Berg at least 4 days a week, starting as soon as you can move. πŸ› οΈ What you'll do - Work directly with Charlotte and Mona on cross-functional initiatives across GTM, Product, and Ops. - Find the highest-leverage workflows in the company, redesign them around Claude agents, MCPs, and Skills, ship them, and measure the lift. - Build the automations yourself, in Claude Code, GitHub, n8n or Zapier, and directly inside HubSpot and Planhat. - Own launches end-to-end: brief, plan, execute, retro. πŸ€– How we work - Pick your Claude tool by what the problem needs: Cowork for anything multi-step and messy, Code when something has to run, Sonnet or Opus for the genuinely hard stuff, Haiku for volume. - Anything you'd do twice gets checked into GitHub as a skill or an agent, so it's still there after you move on. - "Claude said so" doesn't fly here. "Claude said so, here's how I checked" does. - You don't need a CS degree. You do need to be comfortable opening a terminal and figuring it out. πŸ“ˆ Where this role can grow Three tracks so far: become the go-to person for one function (sales, marketing, partnerships, or CX), go deep on AI as a senior IC shaping how the whole company builds with it, or grow into Chief of Staff and take on broader ownership across the business, a role that doesn't exist yet. Which one depends on what you're pulled toward and what the company needs when we get there. 🧭 Who you are - 1-2 years of operator experience, including internships, at a top startup, consultancy, VC/PE, or investment bank. Extra credit if you've been a Founder's Associate, Chief of Staff, GTM engineer, or founded something yourself. - Top 5% of your peers, provable through founding experience, a leadership track record, grades, or an unusual builder rΓ©sumΓ©. - AI-native, not AI-curious. You already run Claude, Cursor, and n8n day to day, and you've shipped at least one automation that's still running in production. - You measure your own impact in hours saved and revenue generated, not in slides produced or meetings held. - You'd rather write a one-page memo than book a meeting to explain it. - Real empathy for blue-collar and frontline work. Time in food, manufacturing, construction, or logistics is a strong plus, not a requirement. - Fluent in German and English. Berlin-based or ready to relocate within 4-6 weeks. 🎁 What we offer - Direct impact: your work reaches thousands of frontline workers and shows up in company metrics inside your first quarter. - Full autonomy from day one on projects that would normally sit with someone five years more senior. - The AI tooling budget you'd expect from a company that means it: Claude Max, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, n8n or Zapier, and no cap on token spend. - Great salary, a Belonio card for meals and mobility, Wellpass or Urban Sports Club, a language-learning budget. - Backed by over €25M in Seed & Series A funding from HV Capital, Creandum, HTGF, and D11Z, so the runway matches the ambition. ____ At doinstruct, you can make full use of your skills and play an active role in the further development of our start-up.
