Founders Associate (Intern)

Job description

We're building the self-maintaining source of truth for the AI-native company, the context repository that keeps company knowledge structured, up-to-date, permission-aware, and ready for every AI agent.

That takes people who are exceptionally talented, obsessed by the vision, and set on doing the best work of their lives. If that's you, read on.

The Opportunity

You'll work side by side with Co-founder Lorenz on growth: sales, product marketing, partnerships, RevOps, etc. Full trust from day one, and clear ownership of projects that are both high impact and high urgency.

We're already live with 15+ design partners and launching v1 in Q3 2026. We're a team of seven in the heart of Berlin, high on ambition, agency, and conviction in what we build. Context is the bottleneck for every company using AI, so the upside is uncapped.

What You’ll Do

  • Drive go-to-market: sales, positioning, product marketing, and the experiments that bring Qontext to market

  • Build partnerships with AI tools and consultancies, and run the channels that grow our reach

  • Set up RevOps that makes the funnel measurable and the team faster

  • Grow our presence in the AI ecosystem through events, partnerships, and social

  • Own projects end to end, from idea to execution, and turn chaos into structure where things are urgent or unclear

You’ll Thrive Here If You…

  • Have raw drive and outwork the room, because you want to, not because anyone asks

  • Are hands-on and get things done, however messy the problem

  • Switch fluently between big-picture strategy and detailed execution

  • Bring energy and optimism when things get hard

  • Want to learn how to build and scale an early-stage startup, maybe to start your own one day

Why Join Us

  • Challenge: A genuinely hard intellectual and systems problem

  • Cutting edge: Turning the latest research into a product used at scale

  • Mission: Building the infrastructure for the next generation of work

  • Impact: Shape the company and architecture from day one

  • Ownership: Competitive salary plus meaningful early equity

  • Culture: Deep-tech mindset, transparency, radical candor and fast execution
