    • Shift focus and reprioritise as the business evolves, always gravitating toward what matters most.

    • Help design and implement operating practices and processes alongside your core responsibilities.

    • Communicate and collaborate cross-functionally with sales, product, legal, and operations stakeholders.

    • Strong interpersonal skills — warm and engaging, but able to drive results when it counts.

    • Proactive owner: notices broken processes and fixes them without waiting for permission.

    • Legal right to work in Germany — no visa sponsorship is available for this role.

    Nice to Have

    • Familiarity with API-based energy solutions and the ability to articulate value propositions to OEMs or installers.

    • Experience in partnerships or alliances management within a regulated industry.

    • Exposure to customer success or support design in an early-stage environment.

    Compensation & Benefits

    • Salary range: $75,000 – $100,000 per year (USD equivalent)

    • Opportunity to shape the commercial function of an early-stage company from the inside
