THE OPPORTUNITY
We are building the first AI learning unicorn.
Millions of students already use our AI learning companion weekly. We just raised $30m - Europe's largest education round in the past three years. The AI learning market is at an inflection point, and we're positioned to win it.
Market leadership will be decided in the next 12-18 months.
You will join an elite team of 60 hands-on builders serving 1 billion students worldwide. If we execute, you will have built something generational that will transform how students learn globally.
This is your chance to be part of building a unicorn.
YOUR MISSION
The problem you will solve: Knowunity is Europes biggest AI learning companion with 25mio Users. We're currently expanding Knowunity in Asia, and Japan is the key market for us in the region. You will be spearheading the growth of this critical country, together with our local social growth team in Japan and our CEO and growth team in Berlin.
Your ownership:
You will own and drive our Japanese growth, through localisation, experimentation, and bold ideas on the growth and product side
You will come up with new tests and will make sure that Knowunity is top of mind for students in Japan
You will work closely with data analytics to address patterns or opportunities
You will execute marketing strategies or campaigns to boost DAUs and retention
You will run our creator programs and figure out new Growth tests & trends
Why this matters: Succeeding in Japan accelerates our timeline to serve 1 billion students. We deeply believe in the large opportunity of enabling personalised education for every student in Asia, Japan is a highly critical market here. Your work directly impacts our North Stars: growing ARR and DAUs while we race to establish market dominance in Japan.
What success looks like: Within 3-6 months, you will have delivered measurable outcomes and Knowunity will be a key player in the ed-tech and AI-space for students in Japan.
WHO YOU ARE
Your mindset
You are the type of person who:
Thinks like an owner, not an intern - You don't wait for detailed instructions; you identify what needs to be done and figure out how to do it exceptionally well
Thrives in high-stakes environments - The pressure of building something that could transform education for billions energises rather than intimidates you
Executes with startup speed - You can go from insight to implementation in hours, not weeks, and you naturally bias towards action over analysis paralysis
Leverages AI as a force multiplier in everything you do - from research to analysis to creation
Values excellence over comfort - mediocrity isn't in your vocabulary
Your track record
You have already proven you can deliver impact in high-pressure environments - whether through previous internships at top consulting firms, running growth or own channels, founding your own venture or leading significant university projects.
Must-haves
Top-tier university (business, economics, or quantitative field)
Previous experience in consulting, high-growth startup, or similar university projects
Analytical mindset with ability to translate complex data into actionable insights
Native Japanese; Business English
Nice-to-haves
Prior Social Media experience, i.e. running own accounts with relevant views
WHAT WE OFFER
Not for everyone, everything for the right ones.
Unparalleled access and learning: Work closely with our CEO and VP Commercial on strategic decisions. You will gain firsthand experience in how fast-growth companies operate and scale.
Real ownership and impact: Your projects will have immediate, measurable impact on millions of students and company growth.
Elite peer group: Work alongside 60 exceptional people who match your ambition within a flat hierarchy where your ideas reach decision-makers immediately.
We are not here to coast - we are building something exceptional. We are a lean team of ambitious people who push hard, move fast, and constantly raise the bar. The real perk is not standard benefits - it is joining 60 amazing people who challenge you to level up daily. If you are hungry, thrive under pressure and ready to go the extra mile, this is where you will accelerate your career faster than anywhere else.
