Technical Co-Founder / CTO - HR Tech and Talent Management (f/m/d)
Permanent employee, Full-time · Berlin, Hamburg, Singapore
Description
Join our next venture as the Technical Co-Founder of an early stage technology startup that will revolutionise the relationship between the maritime industry, and its most critical resource - its people.
Shipping is the backbone of the global economy, transporting 90% of world trade, and yet remains one of the final frontiers of digitalisation. But now the industry stands at an inflection point, moving ever more rapidly towards a connected, sustainable, AI-powered future. You can drive this transformation.
Your mission
- You and your co-founder together will be fully responsible for the strategy, growth and overall success of your company and the product
- You are a builder that will own technical decision making and shape the technology that drives your product and your startup
- Retain and develop a world-class tech team
- Set the tone, build the culture, be a role model
- Build a sound, scalable organisation structure and processes
Your profile
- You are committed to building a startup as the next chapter of your professional journey.
- You love the 0-1 stage, and are excited to wear multiple hats in addition to your technical one.
- You have proven success as a founder, OR proven top pedigree in a leading technical role in a startup/scaleup.
- You excel at creative problem-solving in uncertain situations, pragmatic execution with limited resources, and combine your hands-on skills with the power to shape a long-term, scalable technology vision.
- When working with others you show that you have mastered a diverse communication toolkit, can collaborate effectively, and people gravitate to you as a natural leader.
- As a character you show strong conviction and resilience, cultural adaptability, and positive stress management.
- HR-Tech experience is a plus.
- Experience with survey data collection and aggregate data analysis is a plus.
- Fluent English is a must. German or other languages are a plus.
- You are fully aware that being a founder comes with a strong upside but none of the economic security of a corporate career -- and excited about it.
