As our Operations Assistant, you’ll be the operational backbone of the company, keeping our Berlin HQ running smoothly, managing facilities, coordinating critical shipments, and supporting core admin tasks. The role offers a unique window into the logistics of a rapidly scaling climate-tech company.

Reporting directly to the Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) and working closely with R&D and engineering, you’ll build strong operational skills in a fast-moving, mission-driven environment.

• People & Culture Support: Coordinate candidate interviews, serve as the employee liaison for basic benefits/payroll questions, and organize company events (e.g., team dinners, holiday party).
• Office & Facilities: Manage cleaning staff, coordinate trash pickup, order and stock supplies, and maintain overall office organization.
• Basic IT & Admin: Onboard new hires (email/access), manage software subscriptions, and track company hardware assets.
• Finance Support: Organize invoices, match receipts to credit card charges, and coordinate documentation with our accountant.
• Field Support: Assist the engineering team with sensor deployment and basic field testing (requires occasional travel).

Requirements

• Bias to Action: You take ownership, push tasks forward quickly, and reliably turn plans into results.
• Detail Oriented: Highly reliable, organized, and comfortable managing both office and light technical workflows
• Startup Mindset: Versatile, eager to tackle admin, logistics, and manual tasks.
• Natural coordinator: Able to effectively communicate with engineers and scientists in English and outside partners in German (delivery people, cleaning staff, etc.)
• Tech-Savvy: Comfortable with basic digital tools (Google Workspace, spreadsheets, device tracking tools) and adaptable to new software

Benefits

• Direct exposure to day-to-day operations of a cutting-edge deep tech startup
• Work with repeat founders and top scientists and engineers building next-gen technology
• Opportunity to learn the modern startup tech stack, production workflows and logistics processes
• Modern workspace in central Berlin with a fast-paced, collaborative team
• Supportive culture focused on learning, execution, and meaningful climate impact
