Job description

Who we are

Lemrock builds the infrastructure of agentic commerce.

Tomorrow, consumers won’t just buy on e-commerce websites. They will discover, compare and purchase directly inside conversational AI interfaces like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and a growing long tail of specialized AI assistants.

For brands, this is a major shift: if they are not present in these environments, they become invisible.

Our mission: enable any brand to exist, sell and distribute in this new channel.

We raised a €7M seed round (the first in Europe on this market), with Jean-Baptiste Rudelle, founder of Criteo, on our board, and the Bpifrance DeepTech label.

Today, Lemrock is already:

• 100M+ conversations per month

• 150+ brand clients

• a $100B market structuring at high speed

The role

As Founder’s Associate, you work directly with the founders on high-impact topics across the company. You take ownership of cross-functional projects, from framing the problem to delivering the result, and you are exposed to the full stack of building an early-stage startup.

Your mission

• Strategy & ops: structure internal processes, track key metrics, and run cross-functional projects through to execution

• Business development: identify and qualify potential partners (retailers, platforms, integrators), and lead outreach, meetings and deal execution

• Product & feedback loop: gather insights from clients and users, and translate field feedback into product priorities

• Fundraising & investor relations: build decks, market analysis and strategic materials, and manage ongoing investor interactions

• Automate what can be automated: AI in reporting, research and outreach

Profile

Must-have

• 1 to 5 years of experience after graduation, in strategy consulting, in an operator role at a startup (Chief of Staff, Founder’s Associate, BizOps, Strategy & Ops), or both

• Degree from a top business or engineering school

• Strong analytical skills, structured thinking and attention to detail

• High level of ownership, autonomy and curiosity

• Ability to move fast, learn fast and operate in ambiguity

• AI-forward: you use AI tools in your daily workflow and have already automated part of it

• Fluent French, professional English

A plus

• Strategy consulting first, then an operator role at a startup or scale-up

• Experience in fundraising, business development or venture capital

• Strong interest in AI and commerce

What we offer

• Competitive package

• Direct exposure to the founders, with real ownership from day one

• A high-growth startup in a structurally emerging market

• A fast-paced, high-standard environment

Start date: ASAP.
