Generalist Operator / Early-Stage Founding Team Member
About the Role
A bootstrapped consumer healthtech company entering a large, underserved market in Germany is hiring a small number of exceptional generalists to work directly alongside its founder. This is a ground-floor opportunity where the shape of the role is defined by who takes it - and where the work you own will directly determine whether the company wins.
What You'll Do
Work side by side with the founder on the highest-priority problems each week, spanning commercial, operational, and product domains.
Own workstreams end to end - from first-principles thinking through to something shipped and measurable.
Build structure and process where none exists, then adapt it as the company grows.
Use AI tools and automation as a default working method, not an afterthought.
Make fast decisions with incomplete information and course-correct quickly.
What We're Looking For
A track record that demonstrates operating at a genuinely exceptional level - the specifics matter more than the title or pedigree.
Experience building or shipping solutions from concept to delivery in resource-constrained or early-stage environments.
Proven ability to execute at high velocity and deliver results on compressed timelines.
Experience working directly with founders or senior executives in a strategic, operational, or advisory capacity.
Hands-on experience with AI automation tools, workflows, or implementation.
Comfort synthesising complex information quickly and communicating clear recommendations.
A background in management consulting (top-tier firm) is helpful but explicitly not required.
Prior exposure to healthcare or healthtech business models is a plus.
Fluent German (spoken and written) is a hard requirement.
Based in Berlin or willing to relocate; available on-site five days a week.
Local work authorisation required - visa sponsorship is not available.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary of €70,000-€100,000 annually, open at the upper end depending on seniority. A meaningful equity component is included as a genuine part of the package.
Location
On-site, five days a week in Berlin, Germany.
