Go-To-Market Intern / Working Student - Italy (all genders)

Introduction

Your Impact

As we're expanding into the Italian market, we are looking for a highly motivated and ambitious Italian speaking Intern to join our team in Berlin.

About us

Heating our buildings causes around 25% of Europe's CO₂ emissions. Decarbonizing it depends on installers – and there are far too few of them to keep up with the growing demand for heat pumps.

autarc is building the operating system for energy installers across Europe: software that makes planning, designing and installing heat pumps faster and more digital. Our goal is to help plan and design 1 million heat pumps by 2030.

Founded in Berlin and backed by Y Combinator (S24), we're a team of 60+ people across Sales, Tech and Operations, already serving more than 2,000 customers.
