AI Operations Manager (all genders)

Hamburg
Full or part-time
Permanent employee

Your mission

Your job is to transform business requirements into practical solutions. You develop entirely new, AI-powered workflows from scratch, testing, experimenting and improving them as you go. You use the tools that best fit the needs of our organisation. You organise your work independently based on goals and priorities, not on a ticket backlog.  

As the first hire in our team, you will work closely with the Director of AI & Digital Ecosystems. Together, we will build the AI tool stack of Impossible Founders.  

Within the first three months, we will set up a functional AI stack for two to three clearly defined use cases that demonstrate internal value and can be transferred to our start-ups.

  • Develop new AI-powered workflows that enable processes which didn't exist before 
  • Build and implement solutions using the tools and platforms that fit the needs of our organisation 
  • Test and evaluate AI tools for specific use cases (which tool solves which problem) 
  • Create documentation so processes can be scaled and transferred to others 
  • Work closely with the CRM Manager and help to build up our Data Infrastructure 
  • Work with existing systems (Notion, HubSpot) to integrate AI capabilities 
AI-First in Our Startups 

  • Adapt validated internal solutions for use by startups in our portfolio 
  • Design and build new AI workflows tailored to startup needs 
  • Support startups in implementing AI tools and workflows

  • Hands-on experience with LLMs, AI tools and agent frameworks 
  • Experience with the deployment and operation of production applications and services

  • Process thinking: you see inefficiencies and know how to fix them 
  • Creative problem-solving: you can design workflows for problems that don't have standard solutions yet
  • Ability to deliver working solutions quickly without perfect infrastructure 
  • Clear communication in English  
  • Comfort working in an early-stage environment with minimal existing structure
