Entrepreneur in Residence — Founder's Office (Internship, m/f/d)

About this role

3–6 months · Starting ASAP · Munich preferred · Remote (EU) possible ## TL;DR Work directly with the founders to build and scale a new product or business unit end-to-end at a YC-backed legal tech company. This is a high-ownership operator role for someone who wants to learn how new ventures are created inside a startup — from idea to launch to revenue. ## About Beglaubigt.de Legal processes in Germany and Europe are still slow, fragmented, and deeply offline — notarizations, company formations, registrations, certified translations, business addresses, and more. Beglaubigt.de is rebuilding this infrastructure from the ground up: digital-first, API-ready, and designed to operate at internet speed. Backed by Y Combinator, we process thousands of cases per year and work with banks, platforms, and service providers across Europe. ## The Role You will work directly with the founders to build and launch new products or business units inside the company. This is not a typical internship. It is a mini-venture builder role where you will own initiatives from concept to execution. You will: - Identify new product opportunities and business models - Build initial go-to-market strategies - Coordinate across product, operations, sales, and marketing - Turn early traction into scalable business units ## What We Are Looking For — Top 1% Across Four Dimensions - Analytical thinking — You break down markets, customer problems, and business models logically and turn insights into clear decisions. - Execution speed — You move from idea to implementation quickly — testing, iterating, and improving constantly. - Ownership mindset — You take responsibility for outcomes, not tasks. When something matters, you drive it forward until it works. - Structured problem solving — You turn messy problems into clear plans, processes, and measurable results. ## Who Thrives Here - You think like a builder, not just an analyst - You enjoy taking ideas from 0 → 1 - You are comfortable with ambiguity and rapid iteration - You care about measurable business outcomes - You work independently and take initiative - You communicate clearly and operate with high ownership ## Background Strong candidates typically show one or more of the following: - Background in business, economics, engineering, or related fields - Experience with startups, venture building, consulting, or operations - Experience working on new products or projects - Evidence of initiative (projects, startups, leadership roles) - Top university background (e.g., HSG, WHU, TUM, LMU) is a plus ## Requirements - Fluent in German and English - Strong analytical and structured thinking - Ability to operate independently ## What You Get - Direct exposure to founder-level decision making - Hands-on experience building a real product or business unit - High ownership and steep learning curve - A high-performance environment ## Logistics - Duration: 3–6 months - Start: ASAP - Location: Munich preferred, remote/hybrid in Europe possible
