Strategy & Operations – Product Growth

About the Role

Join a fast-moving, founder-led team at a Series A AI-powered industrial procurement SaaS company based in Munich. This role sits at the intersection of product, growth, and operations — you'll design and ship product-led acquisition strategies that create durable, scalable growth for the industrial procurement sector.

You'll move quickly from hypothesis to prototype to scale, owning high-leverage growth loops end-to-end and actively shaping company strategy while executing day-to-day. Expect to spend roughly 20% of your time on strategy (working closely with founders) and 80% executing independently with full ownership.

What You'll Do

• Identify and build the next compounding growth loop (e.g., supplier referrals, community effects, embedded workflows) end-to-end.

• Own organic acquisition through technical SEO and AI-search (GEO) infrastructure to convert procurement queries into pipeline.

• Concept and ship product-led wedges that drive user acquisition without proportional sales effort.

• Run rapid 0-to-1 cycles: whiteboard → prototype → validate → scale — and pivot decisively when needed.

• Build roadmaps and deliver outcomes with extreme ownership, without waiting for permission.

• Contribute to an ego-free, collaborative culture that raises the bar for the whole team.

What We're Looking For

Must-haves (dealbreakers):

• Able to work on-site in Munich 4+ days per week.

• 3+ years in growth or strategy roles delivering zero-to-one growth loops and scalable growth initiatives.

• Proven track record of owning end-to-end growth roadmaps and executing autonomously.

• Fluency in both German and English.

Required experience:

• Building and owning an organic acquisition strategy, including technical SEO and AI-search (GEO) infrastructure.

• Demonstrated ability to prototype, validate, and scale ideas quickly (whiteboard → prototype → validation → scale).

• Leading product-led growth initiatives and launching product experiences that drive user acquisition.

• B2B SaaS growth within industrial procurement or a similar enterprise procurement domain.

• Zero-to-one growth projects in VC-backed startups or high-growth environments.

• Building growth loops from scratch (supplier referrals, community effects, embedded workflows) and turning them into scalable pipelines.

Nice to have:

• Familiarity with the European/DACH regional context and AI-first platform dynamics.

• Experience operating at founder-level pace and comfort with ambiguity.

• Ambition to found a company someday — this team actively backs founder-minded operators.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive compensation package including equity.

• Work alongside a high-calibre, founder-led team backed by top-tier European and global investors.

• High-ownership role with significant impact on company strategy from day one.

Note: Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
