# Founders Associate

**Clera** · Berlin

Apply: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/clera/d382f5f9-14ed-4d05-a41f-dce7848441b0

## About Clera

Stop applying to startups. Start getting introduced. Clera connects you directly with hiring managers at the companies you want to work for.

## About the role

##### About the Role

This is a core operator role working directly with the founders of a small, fast-moving AI startup building purpose-built agents for the sea and air freight industry. You will own high-leverage workstreams end-to-end, from internal operations to go-to-market, and grow into senior operating or founding responsibility over time.

##### What You'll Do

- Own and run cross-functional projects spanning finance, operations, compliance, and people.

- Build and manage internal systems, tooling, and automations that enable the company to scale.

- Lead recruiting efforts end-to-end, including sourcing, interviewing, and onboarding new team members.

- Support go-to-market initiatives and help bring AI agent products to enterprise customers.

- Step into whatever challenge moves the company forward, from board preparation to vendor management.

- Work shoulder-to-shoulder with the founders on the highest-priority problems each week.

##### What We're Looking For

- 2+ years of experience in generalist, operating, consulting, or founding roles, ideally in early-stage or high-agency environments.

- Proven ability to build internal systems, tooling, and automations hands-on, not just direct others.

- Technical background or strong working knowledge of AI, software architecture, and automation principles, with the ability to evaluate technical feasibility.

- Experience running cross-functional projects end-to-end and owning outcomes with minimal supervision.

- Experience supporting B2B go-to-market initiatives and enterprise customer engagement.

- Full fluency in both German and English, with clear communication across technical and non-technical stakeholders.

- High integrity, strong work ethic, and a bias toward urgency and action.

- Familiarity with logistics, supply chain, or enterprise operations is a plus.

- Experience with board preparation, financial reporting, or investor relations in early-stage companies is a plus.

- Background in consulting, strategy, or process optimization is a plus.

##### Compensation & Benefits

Competitive salary plus meaningful equity participation. **Visa sponsorship is not available**; local work authorization is required.

##### Location

On-site in **Berlin, Germany**. In-person presence is strongly preferred.
