Entrepreneur in Residence

About Atira

Atira builds the commercial brain for industrials. Our agents 10x the sales engineers of today by offering the complete toolbox of tasks needed in complex environments. They handle everything from extracting and classifying requirements from incoming RFQs, orchestrating communication and information retrieval across multiple stakeholders and systems, while generating outcomes like documentation, production system inputs, or configuration recommendations. CRM. Atira. ERP.

We are one of the fastest growing teams in Munich and are looking for you to join us!

Why this role is exactly what you are looking for

We deliberately design this internship program as open and variable as possible. If you're drawn to building across functions like Sales, Growth, Strategy, or Operations, you'll fit. You apply once, and we figure out together where you can do the most damage while you're here. Many internships hand you a narrow job, we give you the freedom to do what you want to do.

This role bends to your strengths. If you are the kind of person who, given a problem nobody has solved yet, starts moving instead of waiting for a brief, this is for you. From day one you own real problems that move the numbers we care about this quarter, not tasks someone hands down to you.

What you will do

It depends on whats Prio. The kinds of things our EiRs take on:

GTM & Business Development. Build outbound motions from scratch, run experiments and report what worked, organize fairs/events, sit in on customer calls, and turn what you hear into the next campaign

Strategy & Operations. Scale Atira and build 0 to 1 across many fronts: internal processes, branding, and the questions the founders haven't had time to answer yet

People & Talent. Own a slice of how we find and assess the people who will define Atira. Source candidates for an open role, organize events, own branding and connect us into the ecosystem

We move fast and value adaptability. None of these specializations are set in stone and nobody knows where your passions and strengths cross better than you. The constant across all of these: you get handed an ambiguous problem, you build the staircase yourself, and you own the outcome including the parts that don't work.

What we are looking for

We care more about your intrinsic motivation and the urge to solve problems than we care about your current year or major.

You build staircases. When the path forward isn't obvious, you figure out the first few concrete steps and start, instead of waiting for someone to make the plan

You've owned something real. A company or project you started, a leading role in a student initiative, a side build that shipped, or a job where you owned an outcome others would have delegated

You're intellectually honest. You say "I don't know" instead of bluffing, and you flag what's actually going on before someone has to ask

Full working proficiency in German and English

You can commit to at least three months full-time, on-site in Munich

We don't care whether you call yourself a generalist with one real spike or a specialist with unusual range. We care that you saw yourself somewhere in the lines above.

What you'll get

Real ownership from week one. You own problems, not tasks, and your work ships

Proximity to the people building the company. You work directly with the founders and an early team that has built and sold AI systems in industrial enterprises before

A fast read on where you're strong. this program is designed to find your edge

Competitive compensation

A high-performing but caring culture. We hold a high bar and treat each other well while clearing it

What success looks like by the end

You owned at least one problem end-to-end that moved a real number for the team

People stopped checking your work because they trusted it

You leave knowing where your edge is, and we'd take you back full-time without thinking twice

How it works

Apply with your CV and two or three lines on a problem you owned and what came of it. No cover letter needed.

Three steps: a first call with one of us to get to know each other, a short case rooted in a real Atira problem, and a final conversation with a founder. We aim to go from application to decision in about two weeks.

If this sounds like you, apply. If you're not sure you fit but can't stop thinking about it, apply anyway and tell us why.
