Job description

Background
Join Next Level Coffee, the trailblazers behind nunc., our cutting-edge IoT coffee ecosystem. We're on a mission to revolutionize home coffee experiences with our premium products—coffee machine, grinder, app, and more. Launching in 2024, nunc. combines innovation and convenience for coffee lovers everywhere. With strong financial backing and a dynamic team, we're poised for rapid growth. Ready to transform the way the world enjoys coffee? Join us!
So what is the role?
Are you ready to transform coffee operations at scale? In this role, you will take our coffee manufactory to the next level, developing and automating processes, building strategic partnerships, and ensuring our roasting operations are efficient, high-quality, and scalable: 
  • Transferring our coffee manufactory into scalable and automated coffee operations.
  • Developing a scalable roasting strategy (make/buy/partner) with a focus on efficiency, quality, and reproducibility.
  • Creating a coffee marketplace strategy to seamlessly integrate third-party roasters into the nunc. ecosystem, including the business model and partner contracts.
  • Building and maintaining partner relationships with third-party roasters to ensure sustainable and successful cooperation.
  • Automating processes along the entire value chain—from coffee roasting to shipping.
  • Selecting and introducing suitable packaging systems based on the developed roasting strategy.
  • Further developing the consumable strategy to ensure a strong product portfolio in the long term.
  • Implementing sustainable and efficient supply chains for packaging components.
This is the next level you achieve after 6 months:
  • Scaling strategy: Develop and implement a scalable roasting strategy (make/buy/partner) with a clear roadmap.
  • Marketplace model: Create a viable business model for integrating third-party roasting companies into the nunc. ecosystem, including initial partner agreements.
  • Automation: Kickstart process automation along the value chain—from roasting to shipping.
  • Supply chains: Establish scalable and sustainable supply chains for packaging components.
  • Partner network: Build stable and trusting relationships with at least [insert number] third-party roasters and initiate joint projects.
What you need for this role:
  • Passion for coffee, entrepreneurial spirit, and a strategic mindset.
  • Experience in business development, supply chain management, or process optimization, ideally in the food or consumer goods industry.
  • Structured working style with the ability to lead projects independently from idea to implementation.
  • Knowledge of process automation and/or operations management.
  • An eye for sustainable and innovative solutions in production and packaging.
  • Strong communication and negotiation skills, especially in partner management.
  • Fluent in English and German.
  • Excitement for shaping an innovative coffee start-up.
What we deliver on:
  • We want to do great stuff with a great team – this only works with a #nofilter and #nobullshitattitude.  
  • Huge opportunity to join early stage and build a company – you work on our common vision, product and values!  
  • You are best in class – and are enabled to make best in class decisions.   
  • We love working visually and with the end result in mind, then get there by building fast and learning fast.
  • We love humans, we love coffee and working with the coffee community, from farm to cup. 
  • Hybrid working - you work remotely, but once a month we meet for 2-4 days in Konstanz, the Alps, or Mallorca. 
  • Your home office setup tailored to your workday needs.
  • Fitness programs, childcare subsidies, a home coffee supply, and many more benefits await you. 
About us
