Job description

About

We started Corma because we were tired of watching IT teams drown in the same avoidable chaos: chasing down who has access to what, cleaning up after people who left months ago, discovering tools nobody remembers signing up for. Behind every messy spreadsheet is a person losing hours they'll never get back. We think they deserve better tools.

About

We started Corma because we were tired of watching IT teams drown in the same avoidable chaos: chasing down who has access to what, cleaning up after people who left months ago, discovering tools nobody remembers signing up for. Behind every messy spreadsheet is a person losing hours they'll never get back. We think they deserve better tools.

That's what we're building: context-aware identity & access infrastructure that gives IT teams one place to govern every identity lifecycle (people, software, and now agents too) . But underneath the product, this is really a bet on people: that a small, sharp, genuinely curious team can build something that quietly gives thousands of humans their time back.

We closed a $4.2M round at the end of 2025, and we're growing, not just the product, but the team building it, across Europe and the US. If you want to work somewhere that moves fast and lets your work actually reach people, come build Corma with us.

We’re based in Paris, but with a few team members scattered across the world since day one... different time zones, same ring.

Job Description

Your Day-to-Day with CEO, Héloïse and the Team

Working across teams to turn ideas into measurable results, you will experience what CEO-suite does on a day to day basis, without the hassle of being one. This internship is great for young bilingual talents looking to build their companies one day.

You’ll deep dive into various missions around sales, partnerships, growth, data analytics, and AI strategy assignments.

• AI & Product Insight: Understand how AI-enabled sales transforms business operations and help integrate it into our product and strategy.
• Data & Insights: Be data-driven, analyse performance metrics, identify growth patterns, and help shape business decisions on new markets
• Sales & Growth: Understand how to prospect new leads, support client meetings, craft pitches and demos, and maybe take your own ownership of follow-ups that convert!
• Operations & Strategy:
• Support strategic operations and help the leadership team turn vision into execution.
• Collect and analyze client data to build and deliver actionable reports and insights.
• Help optimize internal processes and track KPIs across departments.
• Contribute to strategic initiatives such as go-to-market planning, product positioning, and investor reporting.

What You Will Get

• A paid internship in one of the most exciting international startups in Europe.
• Work hand-in-hand with the CEO and COO learning directly from their decision-making, leadership, and startup playbook.
• Exposure to AI, SaaS, sales, and startup operations in a fast-paced environment.
• Based in central Paris, surrounded by France’s most innovative founders.
• Flexible schedule and hybrid work possible.
• Opportunity to stay on the team as a working student or full-time employee, if you prove you’re one of us.
