About the Role

This isn’t your regular job. Almedia is a place where those who want to push harder can accelerate their careers faster than anywhere else. We’re aiming to become Germany’s second bootstrapped unicorn. Almedia is already Europe’s #3 fastest-growing company in 2025 (FT1000).

We are building the future of marketing by rewarding our community of over 70 million users for engaging with our advertisers’ products. We are offering a new way to acquire users for the biggest companies in the world.

AT ALMEDIA, YOU’LL:

  • Own way more, way earlier — you’ll be trusted with responsibility fast.

  • Push harder, get further — this isn’t a 9–5. We highly reward intensity.

  • Join a rare environment — you will work with ambitious high-speed, high-ownership people.

  • Fully present — we’re 5 days a week in the office to build the energising momentum we need.

We’re looking for a Founder's Associate who will act as a versatile "Swiss Army knife" for Almedia's leadership, tackling high-impact challenges across every function of the business. In this role, you will be the primary engine for strategic initiatives, moving rapidly from research and analysis to hands-on execution and process optimization.

WHAT YOU'LL DO 🎯

  • Drive Strategic Growth Initiatives: Spearhead high-priority projects across product, marketing, and finance to directly contribute to Almedia's key expansion objectives.

  • Execute Problem Solving & Building: Dive into complex business problems, conduct rapid data analysis, and build implemented solutions in close collaboration with the CEO and Founders.

  • Optimize Operational Excellence: Identify internal inefficiencies and lead the implementation of new tools and workflows to enhance company-wide productivity and scalability.

  • Coordinate Cross-Functional Sprints: Act as a central catalyst between technical and business teams to ensure seamless execution and total alignment on critical company milestones.

  • Generate Market Insights: Perform rigorous competitive analysis and financial modeling to evaluate new ventures and provide data-driven support for strategic decision-making.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING 💡

  • Exceptional Learning Velocity: Demonstrated ability to rapidly master new business models, technical concepts, and industries with absolute precision.

  • Proven Initiative & Impact: Experience taking full ownership of projects with tangible results in a high-growth startup, top-tier consulting firm, or rigorous academic environment.

  • Analytical Problem Solving: Proficiency in structuring ambiguous challenges and deriving actionable, data-informed insights from complex information.

  • Resourceful Execution: High degree of self-motivation and a "roll-up-your-sleeves" attitude to get things done effectively even with limited resources.

  • Bonus: Practical exposure to the AdTech ecosystem or experience within a Venture Capital environment.

WHAT MAKES YOU A GREAT FIT 🌟

  • Own Everything: You treat the company as your own, taking extreme pride and responsibility for every outcome and ensuring no detail is overlooked in high-priority missions.

  • Raise the Bar: Your unquenchable curiosity drives you to constantly ask "why" and seek a deep understanding of business mechanics to elevate Almedia's standards.

  • Move Fast: You are a strategic doer who thrives in fast-paced, innovative settings, iterating quickly to turn unforeseen challenges into growth opportunities.

WHY ALMEDIA? 🎁

  • Own Our Growth: We offer all Berlin-based employees equity in Almedia to truly be a part of our success.

  • Scale With Almedia: Grow alongside a startup that has been profitable from day one.

  • Central Berlin Office: Work from a fully-stocked modern office built for collaboration, accessible from all around Berlin.

  • Other Benefits: Transport subsidy, breakfasts and lunches, language learning, Urban Sports Club, and more.

We believe in fostering talent, evaluating all skill levels during the hiring process, and providing a clear path for growth. Almedia is an equal opportunity employer. We embrace and celebrate diversity, and encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply.
