Tacto

YOUR IMPACT We're entering our next big growth phase - scaling Tacto to become the defining AI company for industrials across Europe and beyond. The coming years are about expanding into new markets and building the organizational backbone to support that growth. As our Venture Development hire, you'll play a key role in making that happen. You'll work directly with André (CEO) and our Chief of Staff to build and scale the teams that power Tacto's next chapter. You'll take ownership from day one - driving hiring, setting up scalable processes, and helping design the systems that let Tacto grow fast without losing focus or quality. It's a hands-on, high-trust role at the center of our growth story - ideal for someone who wants to learn company-building from the inside and see real impact early. YOUR TASKS Build the team that builds the company: Take full ownership of hiring for your part of the org. Identify, engage, and close the best talent in the market. Systemize and scale: Design the processes and playbooks that make our talent function scalable. Use automation, data, and storytelling to raise the bar. Shape how Tacto shows up: Actively build our employer brand and storytelling. Create moments, content, and experiences that make Tacto the place where top talent in Europe wants to work. Know the org inside out: Understand every moving part of how we operate - how teams collaborate, how we measure success, and where we need to evolve. Then help design and improve it. Expand your scope: Once the foundation is built, take on broader company-building topics - you can build your own path here and we’re there to support you. YOUR PROFILE * Smart, driven, and hungry to build - you get energy from moving fast and seeing results * You've seen what "great" looks like - through an internship or role in a top-tier startup, consulting, or VC environment * You like to get your hands dirty - you solve problems hands-on, not just talk about them * You have strong people intuition - you read people fast, connect easily, and build trust * You're a storyteller who can sell a vision and get others excited to join it * You're curious about how companies grow - and could see yourself staying in the Talent, or Org-Building space long-term * Ideally 1-2 years of professional experience (not required); fluent in German and English WHY THIS ROLE IS AWESOME We see this role as a "company-building apprenticeship". You'll work on one of the company's most important projects directly with senior leadership and our CEO, shape the teams that shape Tacto, and see your fingerprints on the company's trajectory within months. You'll be surrounded by people who move fast, expect excellence, and care deeply about building something that lasts. After the first year, you'll carve your own path - whether that's in Talent, Ops, or a commercial function. WHAT THIS ROLE IS - AND ISN'T We want to be honest about what you're signing up for: * The first 9-12 months are hands-on and execution-heavy: sourcing, outreach, building processes, troubleshooting. It's not always the flashiest work, but it's some of the highest-leverage work at Tacto. Almost everything about our expansion runs through people - who we hire, the incentives and structures we build, and the culture of ambition we protect. This role shapes all of it. * This isn't a pure "strategy" role - those don't exist at Tacto - and it isn't a stepping stone you leave after a few months. You'll crunch, move fast, and live with a high bar. What you get back is rare & valuable in our opinion: direct, visible impact, real ownership from day one & daily exposure to our Senior Leadership team * The deal: prove yourself, deliver real impact, make a strong case for yourself - then we'll support your growth in every way possible. WHY TACTO * We bet on young talent and mean it. We consistently back smart, hungry, young people with real ownership early. 70%+ of our Leadership Team was promoted internally - you deliver impact and sky is the limit at Tacto. * Backed to win big. We are Sequoia and Index-funded and have €50M+ behind us. Our founders sit at the same table as the people defining the global AI agenda, from Sam Altman to Europe's leading tech entrepreneurs. We're building Tacto to be the lighthouse for European industrial AI. * A truly AI-native organization, with every resource you could dream of. All the leading AI tools and custom agents at your fingertips, plus dedicated "AI captains" who keep us at the frontier. * High bar, high speed, genuinely fun. You'll be surrounded by extremely smart and ambitious people who set the bar high and push you to get better every week. Intense, fast, and the opposite of boring. * A front-row seat in the European startup ecosystem. Weekly exposure to leading founders and operators through internal and external events, e.g. with Andreas Klinger, Judith Dada or during large Hackathons. Check out all upcoming and past events here: https://luma.com/tacto * You'll build something that lasts and that matters. You'll help build the company that keeps European industry competitive for the long-term. OUR BACKGROUND Tacto is building the intelligence layer that connects AI to the physical world of manufacturing, starting with procurement. AI is transforming every industry, but it stops at the factory gate. The knowledge that holds manufacturing together - part costs, suppliers, materials - is scattered across systems and people. Over 50% of a product's cost originates from suppliers, making procurement the single largest cost lever in manufacturing and the missing connection between the digital and the physical world. Yet it still runs on Excel and legacy systems. We're changing that with our Procurement Intelligence Platform, trusted by hundreds of companies running billions of Euros of material. Based in Munich, we are 100+ passionate builders who are in-office, with high expectations, fast growth, and a lot of fun. We are supported by >€50m from Sequoia, Index, and Europe's leading tech entrepreneurs and industry veterans. WHY IT MATTERS Manufacturing forms Europe's economic backbone, driving a fourth of Europe's GDP and providing over 30% of jobs. These hidden champions and global market leaders manufacture the physical world around us, from the machines that build our cities to the medical devices that save lives. But the world is changing. The US dominates the digital world of bits. China is scaling the world of atoms, manufacturing at unprecedented speed and scale. Geopolitics are more uncertain than ever. Europe's strength lies in its deep industrial knowledge through generations of engineering. Manufacturing worldwide runs on European machines and software. But that heritage is only an advantage if we leverage it in the age of AI. Tacto builds the AI that connects Atoms and Bits, empowering our Industrial Base to Stay Stronger and building a lighthouse for European tech. WHAT WE OFFER The people at Tacto are passionate about building the organization, growing themselves, and our product while having fun and being real. We have high expectations, great talent density, and a culture where your ambition, performance, and agency are what count - not where you come from or how big your ego is. You'll grow at the forefront of AI, have real ownership and impact, and be surrounded by the best people in their field who challenge you and make you better every day. That is demanding and rewarding, but that's where we thrive. Besides that you have: * Money: Competitive salary & equity in the company with real upside, so you are invested in our success * Workplace: A vibrant in-office culture (> 4 days/week) in a beautiful office in central Munich * Development: A development budget and regular exposure to exceptional people, e.g., Lunch & Learns, peer mentoring, external speakers * Time off: 26 + 4 vacation days per year (4 fixed “company rest days”) as well as regular off-sites and team events * Health: Wellpass membership, of course, a fruit basket (!), and access to Jobrad, for your health * Family & Social Security: Voluntary pension contribution, voluntary KITA subsidy for your children Tacto is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, or gender identity. Please do not submit personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, data concerning your health, or data concerning your sexual orientation.
