  • At Joy_, we believe gifting should feel personal, playful, and full of surprise – basically everything today’s gift cards are not. We're here to reimagine gifting for the modern world, turning it from a transactional experience into a token of love – customizable, meaningful, and radically flexible.

    Our universal gift card can be personalized endlessly and redeemed for every product in every online store. That means one gift card = the whole internet. From boutique ceramics in Berlin to rice cookers in Korea – every wish is just a click away.

    But we're not stopping there. We're not building just a gift card, or even just a tech solution. We're building the gifting backbone of e-commerce – a product concierge that turns intent into instant access. Backed by industry experts and angel investors, we’ve raised our Pre-Seed round and are growing fast – now with you.

    Where do we stand: We are a team of 7 and just closed our Seed-Round with renowned investors from venture capital and media.

    Why this role is truly different:

    Most jobs offer exposure. This one offers ownership.

    You won't be a cog in the machine. You’ll be the engine. As one of the first hires, you’ll work directly with our co-founders to shape a brand with the potential to redefine an entire market. What we offer is a greenfield opportunity – a chance to build something enduring, delightful, and impactful from the ground up.

    Tasks

    What the role involves:

    In a nutshell: You become the right hand of our co-founders.

    • Be a strategic sparring partner: from ideation to implementation, you’ll help drive key initiatives across the company.
    • Lead projects end-to-end: improve processes, establish new business areas (e.g., Operations, Partnerships), and help us scale without friction.
    • Act as a brand architect: contribute to shaping a gifting experience and consumer brand unlike any other.
    • Take creative ownership: from storytelling to visuals, your ideas and instincts matter here.
    • Build the future of gifting using AI tools, design thinking, and raw curiosity.

    Requirements

    What makes a good fit:

    We don't care where you come from. We care where you’re going – and how fast you’re learning.

    What we’re really looking for:

    • Insane agency and ownership: you thrive in ambiguity and turn chaos into clarity.
    • Creative confidence: you can write a script, sketch a campaign, and build a notion doc in the same hour.
    • Affinity for aesthetics and design: you have an eye for what feels right and makes people smile.
    • AI-savviness: from content creation to business automation, you explore tools that give you superpowers.
    • Experience in fast-paced environments (startups, agencies, or your own side hustle) is a bonus – not a requirement.
    • Fluency in German and English is a must.

    Benefits

    What's in it for you?

    • 🌱 Ownership: You’ll own projects that matter – not just assist on them.
    • 🚀 Growth: Build skills in strategy, brand, ops, and AI – and grow with us.
    • 💡 Autonomy: Remote-first setup with the freedom to work when and how you want.
    • 🎁 Meaningful equity – we want you to win with us.
    • 🛍️ Real Impact: See your work live in campaigns, product, and customer touchpoints – fast.

    How we think:

    We think like caring jesters – joyful, kind, clever. We challenge the status quo by staying light on our feet and bold in our ambition. Our compass?

    Aesthetics. Efficiency. Joy.

    We believe gifting is about delight – and delight comes from design, thoughtfulness, and a little magic. That’s the experience we’re building: not just easy, but enchanting.
