About the role

We're building the platform for creating consumer-facing AI voice agents.

Phone calls have long had a bad reputation. All of us have been stuck in long waiting queues, dealt with unhelpful support agents, or listened to endless hold music. Even though voice is the most natural way to communicate, it has never scaled for businesses.

We believe that every B2C company in the world - from energy providers, to telecoms, to insurances - will have AI voice agents that interact with their customers. The number of business-to-consumer conversations over the phone is going to explode in the coming years. As LLMs get better and better it will become an absolute no-brainer to use voice agents to provide consumers with a great experience.

The opportunity is massive and we know we can win.

Mission

You'll be telli's first marketing hire. Your job is to build and own telli’s growth marketing engine from strategy to execution.

What you'll do

  • Positioning, Storytelling & Content

  • Growth Marketing Strategy & Execution

What makes you a great fit

  • 1-3 years in growth or product marketing, ideally at an early-stage company where you were one of the first marketing hires or built the function from scratch

  • you're exceptionally creative and bring original ideas to messaging and campaigns, not just follow playbooks

  • you have a strong sense for positioning and storytelling, you turn technical products into narratives people remember

  • you're data driven and make decisions based on experiments and numbers, not gut feeling

  • you pick up new concepts, channels, and tools fast and always know what's working in the market

  • you use AI and automation aggressively and never do manually what can be automated

  • you're a strong communicator in both English and German

  • you want to work with smart and friendly people with (self reported) low ego

  • you want to work on site 5 days a week in Berlin

  • (Bonus) You've built your own business, project, or side hustle before

You may not be a great fit if…

  • you only work with detailed instructions and shy away from taking responsibility

  • you lack hands on experience running marketing channels yourself

  • you're only interested in high level “strategic” work without getting into the execution

  • you prefer following best practices over coming up with original approaches

  • you prefer working with minimal collaboration

  • you prefer working remotely

  • you want to work a 9 to 5 job

Perks

  • Founding marketing role with a clear path to Marketing Lead

  • Above-market pay & equity

  • Access to any (AI) tool that makes you more productive

  • Gym subscription (Urban Sports)

  • Free dinner in the office

  • Regular off-sites with the team
