Tasks
🚀 About the Role
This role is perfect for someone who sees systems where others see chaos. You’ll work directly with the CEO and across all departments to identify, automate and optimize business processes – from logistics to finance, CRM, and customer support.
You won’t just build workflows – you’ll build a scalable operating system for a growing e-commerce company.
Long-term, this role has the potential to evolve into a strategic tech/growth leadership position. But first: execution, impact, and ownership.
⚙️ What You'll Do
- Design, build & maintain workflows using Make.com, Zapier, n8n, or custom code
- Automate processes across operations, logistics, marketing, sales, support & finance
- Build micro tools & dashboards (e.g. using Python, Google Apps Script, Airtable, Notion APIs)
- Integrate third-party tools like Shopify, Klaviyo, Notion, Stripe, Google Sheets, Slack, etc.
- Identify bottlenecks and repetitive tasks, and replace them with automations
- Set up API integrations, webhooks, cron jobs and system triggers
- Document your systems and keep everything running smooth and reliable
- Work closely with the CEO and ops to prioritize and build what matters
Requirements
- 2–4+ years experience with automation tools like Make, Zapier, n8n or similar
- Strong scripting skills (Python, JavaScript, or similar)
- Fast systems thinker – you can map out a process and optimize it end-to-end
- Experience in e-commerce environments or SaaS workflows is a strong plus
- Confident working with APIs, webhooks, structured data flows
- You’re self-managed, curious and quick – you don't wait, you build
- Bonus: Experience with AI tools, GPT API, OpenAI, or LangChain
- Even bigger bonus: You’re aiming for a long-term strategic role in a high-growth brand
Benefits
🌍 100% Remote – work from anywhere (Germany preferred, but flexible)
🧠 Deep ownership – you’ll architect systems that power our growth
🤝 Direct collaboration with the CEO – fast decisions, fast impact
