Why this role matters
- This is not standard recruiting. You will not just work a funnel
- You work directly with the Head of People to build the best talent engine ever at Marvel Fusion
- Talent is the single highest-leverage input to a frontier fusion company. The quality of our people determines whether we hit milestones that have never been hit before
- This is a Talent AND Venture role: you learn to see the company as one system and build the talent and business infrastructure that holds it together
What this role really is
- Understanding the company as a whole system: how strategy, teams, OKRs, and capacity connect, and where the real gaps are
- Reading the current team as a set of personalities and strengths (MBTI, working styles, status quo), then defining who we need to hire to complement it, not duplicate it
- Hiring against strategy, OKRs, and utilization, not against open reqs
- Proactively and constantly searching for the best people in the world to build championship teams, not reactively filling seats
- Building the system that makes this scale: automations, workflows, and tooling (Claude Code, n8n, Make) so the talent engine runs without manual funnel work
What you will learn here
- How companies actually function as an integrated system of people, strategy, and execution
- How to build championship teams from scratch
- What AAA talent actually means, how to spot it, and how to win it
- How to bring in the best people in the world, not the most available ones
- How to design and automate high-performing talent and business systems in a high-stakes environment
What you will own
- Build the talent engine end to end with the Head of People: sourcing strategy, interview systems, evaluation frameworks, pipeline infrastructure
- Map the current team (personalities, strengths, OKRs, capacity) and translate strategy into complementary hiring plans
- Automate the system: build workflows and tooling with Claude Code, n8n, and Make so sourcing, screening, and ops run proactively, not manually
- Run the talent cycle end to end: screening, scheduling, candidate communication, debrief coordination (Bar Raiser), final-stage logistics
- Build venture and business systems alongside talent: market and technology mapping, competitive analysis, opportunity assessment, partner research in the fusion and deep-tech space
What you bring
- Student or recent graduate in business, economics, Wirtschaftsinformatik, STEM, or related
- Systems thinker: you see how the parts connect, not just the task in front of you
- Comfortable building with automation tools (Claude Code, n8n, Make) or fast to learn them
- Exceptionally structured, fast, and reliable. You finish what you start
- Strong analytical and written communication skills
- High standards and judgment. You can tell the difference between good and great
- Comfortable owning ambiguous problems end to end in a high-pace environment
- Fluent English; German is a plus
- First experience in venture development, consulting, VC, or startups is a plus, not required
