📄Stellenbeschreibung

The Role

As Founders Associate in our office in Zurich, you'll be the right hand of our CTO, Max.

You run the daily business of the CTO office, own strategic projects from start to finish, drive the first round of our technical hiring, and bridge technology and business.

This is a true zero-to-one mandate.

Whether you come from computer science or business, you combine strong tech understanding with real commercial thinking.

You won't be writing production code, but you'll understand our product and infrastructure well, be a trusted counterpart for our engineers, and know what technical decisions mean for the business.

What You'll Do

CTO Office & Executive Support
Manage our CTO's priorities so his time goes to what matters most
Prepare briefing documents and agendas for important meetings and make sure every action item gets followed up
Technical Hiring
Run first-round calls with engineering candidates and coordinate the interview process with our team
Strategic Projects
Take full ownership of critical projects, from deep dives into emerging tech trends to board-level material
Evaluate and drive strategic technical partnerships that keep us at the forefront of AI infrastructure
Tech x Business
Translate technical topics into commercial decisions and clear stories for customers, partners and investors
Support pricing, product and go-to-market questions with a technical angle
Build the processes the CTO office and engineering team need to scale

What We're Looking For

Studies (preferably Master level) or a degree in computer science or a related technical field, OR in business, economics or management with a strong understanding of technology
Very good commercial understanding: you think in business impact, not just technology
Real curiosity for tech: you can follow and discuss AI and infrastructure topics with engineers
First practical experience in a fast-paced environment such as a startup, consulting or VC
Builder's mindset: you take high ownership and enjoy building processes from scratch
Hustle & execution: you're pragmatic and move fast without losing sight of quality – a "get shit done" mentality is essential
Organizational talent: you stay calm under pressure and work in a highly structured and precise way
Communication: excellent written and verbal English, German is a plus

Bonus Points

Exposure to AI, cloud or GPU infrastructure
You've built something yourself: a side project, student initiative or venture

Why us?

Outstanding team: Work with some of the best engineers in the world, coming from hedge funds, big tech, AI startups and top universities
Once in a lifetime opportunity: Early-stage company in the fastest-growing market in the world
Ownership: Shape how European AI companies access GPU compute
European mission: Build sovereign, GDPR-compliant AI infrastructure for the next generation of deep-tech
