Founders Associate

🌾 About Feldwerke We are a Munich-based CleanTech startup accelerating the expansion of renewable energy with innovative technologies to ensure a sustainable and future-proof energy supply – for our planet and future generations. Our mission is to rethink the challenges of the energy transition and make Feldwerke the new standard: combining energy and agriculture on the same land. To achieve this, we develop the sustainable concepts of Agri-PV. Since our founding in 2023, we have, among other achievements, developed the largest Agri-PV plant of its kind in record time, which is now under construction. In addition, dozens of projects are already in advanced stages. We are growing fast: 5x YoY growth. 7-digit profitability. 100% bootstrapped and investor-independent. ✍️ Why Feldwerke Timing: You’ll be one of the very first team members at an early-stage startup with bold ambitions, bootstrapped to profitable seven digits in revenue and 5x growth YoY. Learning curve: You’ll take on real ownership and benefit from weekly feedback sessions with one of our founders. We know some of our team members may start their own company one day and want you to be prepared. Impact: Without a global shift to renewable energy, climate change cannot be solved. With our projects, we aim to enable sustainable energy generation and ensure that by 2035, 100% of electricity in Germany comes from renewables. Team: An ambitious & experienced yet close-knit team based in the heart of Munich. Track Record: In a very short time, we’ve positioned ourselves as one of the leading players in Agri-PV in Germany.
