Our Mission
Logenta AI is building an AI-powered decision intelligence platform that enables logistics and supply chain teams to make faster, trusted, data-driven decisions. We transform fragmented operational data into reliable answers, root-cause analyses, and concrete recommendations.
Logenta AI is built within Uplift Ventures, the venturing unit of Jungheinrich AG, which builds and invests in high-growth businesses shaping the future of moving goods. We are currently moving from a validated proof of concept to a customer-ready product, launching our first pilots, winning customers, and preparing Logenta AI for its spin-out.
As our Founders Associate Intern, you will work directly with the founders and become an integral part of the core team. You will help drive our most important commercial and operational priorities and take ownership from day one.
What you’ll do
Sales and customer development
Support the entire sales process, from identifying and qualifying prospects to preparing customer meetings, proposals, follow-ups, and next steps. Help sharpen our positioning, customer communication, and commercial approach based on real market feedback.
Pilot and customer operations
Coordinate internal and external pilots and keep milestones, responsibilities, and deliverables on track. Prepare workshops, structure customer requirements, and ensure that feedback is translated into clear actions for the product and technical teams.
Founder support and venture execution
Work directly with the founders on the topics that matter most to the venture. Take ownership of strategic and operational workstreams, prepare decision materials, and help turn priorities into execution.
Venture building
Build the processes and structures required to scale Logenta AI, including sales operations, customer onboarding, project tracking, and internal workflows. You will not only analyse problems but actively help solve them.
This role is for you if
You have already gained experience in a startup, consulting, venture building, business development, sales, operations, or a similarly fast-paced environment. Your degree or field of study is less important than your ability to think commercially, work independently, and deliver high-quality results. You may still be studying or have already graduated.
You bring:
A strong sense of ownership and a proactive, hands-on mindset
Initial experience working on commercial or operational topics
The ability to structure complex and ambiguous problems
Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills
Genuine interest in AI, B2B software, and entrepreneurship
Fluent in German and English
Availability for a full-time internship of three to six months
Bonus: Our office is located in Hamburg, which is why we prefer candidates who are based in or able to regularly work from Hamburg. However, candidates from anywhere in Germany are welcome to apply, and remote work is possible during this phase.
What we offer
Founder proximity
Work closely with the founders and gain first-hand experience across sales, pilots, product development, and strategic decision-making. Learn how an AI venture is built and brought to market.
Take real ownership
You will work on commercial, operational, and strategic initiatives that directly influence the progress of Logenta AI. From day one, you will take responsibility for meaningful workstreams and see the direct impact of your contribution.
Build a long-term perspective
This internship can be the starting point for a longer journey with Logenta AI. Strong performers will have the opportunity to join the company after the spin-out and continue building the AI startup as part of its early team.
