Founders Associate to CEO

You'll sit next to doinstruct's founders, and you decide which workflows move to Claude agents, what ships to production, and what gets killed. Every project you take on has to clear one bar: a 3-5x return in hours saved, revenue generated, or headcount avoided.

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.

What you'll need

• 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 résumé.
• 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.
• Fluent in German and English. Berlin-based or ready to relocate within 4-6 weeks.

Nice to have

• Real empathy for blue-collar and frontline work. Time in food, manufacturing, construction, or logistics is a strong plus.

What they offer

• Direct impact on thousands of frontline workers with results in your first quarter.
• Full autonomy from day one on projects normally for someone five years more senior.
• AI tooling budget: Claude Max, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, n8n or Zapier, no cap on token spend.
• Great salary, Belonio card for meals and mobility, Wellpass or Urban Sports Club, language-learning budget.
• Over €25M in Seed & Series A funding from HV Capital, Creandum, HTGF, and D11Z.
