About the Role

We're a seed-stage B2B SaaS startup building an AI-powered support agent purpose-built for technical customer service teams. Our product helps B2B companies auto-resolve complex support tickets, supercharge human agents, and streamline the support-to-engineering workflow — all within tools like Zendesk, Jira, and Slack.

We're a small, high-ownership team and we're looking for a Founder's Associate (GTM/Sales) to work side-by-side with our CEO to get our product in front of the right customers. You'll be an early, pivotal hire — shaping how we go to market and building AI-native sales processes from the ground up.

This is a fully on-site role based in Munich, Germany. Relocation is welcome; visa sponsorship is not available.

What You'll Do

  • Own frontline outreach: craft smart outbound campaigns, generate targeted lead lists, and reach out via email, LinkedIn, and phone to book discovery calls.

  • Lead and participate in discovery calls, qualify high-potential leads, and guide prospects through the trial experience.

  • Set up and manage shared communication channels with prospects and customers.

  • Test and iterate on new growth channels to identify the highest-impact acquisition strategies.

  • Track every pipeline step in the CRM, report on metrics, and continuously improve conversion rates.

  • Leverage AI tools extensively across all responsibilities and collaborate on making internal processes AI-native — always exploring what's possible with the current state of AI.

  • Work directly with the CEO to develop and execute GTM strategy.

What We're Looking For

Must-haves:

  • 2+ years of experience in sales, business development, or GTM roles — with hands-on execution of outbound campaigns and pipeline management.

  • Native-level fluency in German (dealbreaker).

  • Located in Munich or genuinely willing to relocate and work on-site.

  • Proven track record crafting and executing outbound sequences via email, LinkedIn, and phone to book discovery calls.

  • Experience developing and executing GTM strategy in a startup environment.

  • Hands-on experience with CRM platforms (pipeline tracking, reporting, workflow management).

  • Demonstrated ability to lead discovery calls, qualify leads, and advance deals through pipeline stages.

  • Quantifiable results from past roles or side projects — you can show your impact with numbers.

Nice-to-haves:

  • Experience using AI tools to automate or enhance sales processes, outreach, or pipeline management.

  • Experience testing multiple growth channels and doubling down on what works.

  • Background at an early-stage startup with a small, high-accountability team.

  • Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment with evolving priorities.

The right person for this role:

  • Is ambitious, impact-driven, and takes full ownership of their work.

  • Thrives in a small team without hand-holding.

  • Is genuinely excited about using AI/LLMs in day-to-day workflows — not just in theory.

  • Is open to feedback and constantly iterating.
