We're Cortea, a Berlin-based startup transforming audits with AI.
Auditors still fight endless spreadsheets, checklists, and document chaos. We're building the AI tools that take care of all that — so humans can focus on judgment and impact.
Backed by top-tier VCs with €10m+ funding, a live product, and paying customers, we're scaling fast. We value first-principles thinking, speed, trust, and kindness — and we build side by side in our Berlin office.
The RoleThis isn't a "support the founders" role — it's a build with the founders role.
As Founders Associate (Product), you'll work side by side with Philipp (Co-Founder) on all product topics — shaping what we build, how we build it, and the impact it creates.
You'll be part of a small, high-trust team bringing Cortea from product-market fit to category leadership. The work is dynamic, collaborative, and full of ownership — expect variety, real responsibility, and constant learning from day one.
What you'll doWork hand-in-hand with our founders on product strategy and execution
Turn ideas, feedback, and user insights into actionable product decisions
Collaborate closely with engineering, design, and customers to ship real value
Drive structure into chaos: refine our roadmap, process, and priorities
Help us learn faster — run experiments, validate hypotheses, and measure outcomes
You'll grow faster here than anywhere else if you crave ownership, speed, and real impact.
Who you are2+ years of product-related experience (PM, strategy, consulting, or similar)
Worked in fast-paced environments — startup, scale-up, or consulting — and loved the pace
Curious, analytical, and empathetic — you go deep to always understand the Why behind problems
Structured and reliable; you bring calm and clarity to complex problems
Strong communicator who connects naturally with both tech and non-tech teams
Motivated by constant learning, real impact, and fun collaboration
Strong communicator in English and German
(Bonus) You've founded something before — a project, startup, or initiative
Impact & ownership: Shape the future of our AI product with the founding team
Growth: Mentorship from experienced founders and exposure to all parts of the business
Career path: Step into a future role in Product Management or Founding Product
Compensation: Competitive salary + meaningful equity
Culture: Collaborative, inclusive, kind team working in-office in central Berlin
Perks: Learning budget, team lunches, offsites, flexible vacation
Intro call — with Leon (Founders Associate Growth)
Product interview — with Philipp on a real product scenario
Cultural interview — culture and ambition fit with Valentin
On-site half-day (Berlin) — meet the team and jam on a live problem
