AI Associate (f/m/x) (B2B SaaS Startup) - Intern/Working Student

Our Mission

We are traide AI – a VC-backed, B2B deep tech startup based in Berlin, using AI to solve one of the most overlooked yet critical challenges in international trade: customs compliance. Our software automates product classification, reduces regulatory errors, and helps customers save up to 83% of their time.

Trusted by leading brands like Siemens Healthineers, Koro, and Jack Wolfskin, we've achieved 4x growth over the past 12 months – and we're just getting started.

Your tasks

AI Automation & Workflows

* You analyze where we're still doing too much manually – and build the solution yourself

* Concretely: automations for the Commercial team, Finance workflows (invoicing, reporting, DATEV), HR processes, and cross-departmental systems

* You evaluate tools, test use cases, and actually get things running – not just to concept stage

* Mid-term: close collaboration on venture development initiatives and building new internal structures from the ground up

Special Projects & Chief of Staff Support

* You work closely with our Chief of Staff – gaining direct insight into all key decisions across the company

* You own cross-functional projects end-to-end, with real accountability

* You actively shape and improve internal structures, processes, and team operations

Who We’re Looking For

You don't need to be a developer – but you should already know your way around automation tools and love building workflows that actually work.

* Fluency in German (C1 or native) and strong English skills (B2 or better) – written and spoken

* First professional experience – ideally in a fast-paced environment like a startup, consulting, or a high-growth company

* Hands-on experience with automation tools like n8n, Make (Integromat), Zapier, or similar platforms – you've built real workflows, not just watched tutorials

* Experience with AI-powered tools like Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, or similar – you actively use them to get things done faster

* Motivated, hands-on, and ready to take ownership from day one

* Structured and organized, with the ability to keep multiple projects on track at once

* Ideally you've also worked with tools like Airtable, Notion automations, Retool, or scripting basics (Python, Apps Script) – but that's not a must-have

Why us?

* Work directly with founders and the Chief of Staff – short decision paths, high impact

* A role that's truly cross-functional: no two days look the same

* Real freedom to experiment with AI tools and build things from scratch

* Team culture: transparent communication, humor, mutual respect, and genuine support

* Flexible working: We love working together at our office at Senefelder Platz in Berlin Prenzlauer Berg/Mitte – home office possible for two days per week

* Regular team events (boat trips, bowling, and more)

* Urban Sports Club membership
