Strategy & Operations – Product Growth

Job description

About the Role Join a fast-moving, founder-led team at a Series A AI-powered industrial procurement SaaS company based in Munich.

Leading product-led growth initiatives and launching product experiences that drive user acquisition. B2B SaaS growth within industrial procurement or a similar enterprise procurement domain . Zero-to-one growth projects in VC-backed startups or high-growth environments. Building growth loops from scratch (supplier referrals, community effects, embedded workflows) and turning them into scalable pipelines. Nice to have: Familiarity with the European/DACH regional context and AI-first platform dynamics. Experience oper…
