Job Details

Tasks

  • Location: In-person working (Berlin). No remote/hybrid.
  • A-Players Only: We’re building a team of top-tier talent. A-players hire A-players. We’d rather invest in one exceptional person with an above-market salary they’re thrilled about than settle for multiple B-players at standard rates.
  • Drive: You’re relentless and motivated to do whatever it takes to succeed. You might have something to prove, a fire in your belly, or a mind that works differently. Work isn’t just a job—it’s a core part of who you are and how you find purpose.
  • Grind. We work/text on weekends and at night. It’s ok to send messages at 3am.
  • Urgency: Move at lightning speed—turn weeks into days, hours into minutes. Smash through obstacles to get results. Respond instantly, not eventually.
  • Relentless. Winning comes first.Follow up 10x a day if needed. Triple-text or call if someone’s ghosting you. Persistence is your superpower.
  • Fast Firing: We move on quickly from anyone who isn’t an A-player. You’ll need to be comfortable with this. Paid trials help us both figure out the fit upfront.
  • Mission-Driven: Our mission—“Becoming the leading company for virtual characters”—excites you. You’re here to make an impact.
  • Versatility: No task is beneath you. Wear many hats. No job is not your job.
  • EV-Based Decisions: We optimize for expected value, not comfort zones. No playing it safe with “good enough” choices.
  • Flat Structure: Flat company org. Titles reflect scope. No political promotion games.

If you’re an A-player ready to run hard and win big, this is your shot. Let’s build something extraordinary together.
