Working student - HR & Operations (m/f/d) FinTech Startup (Serial Entrepreneurs) Starting ASAP

We co-founded and led Viafintech (Barzahlen) to 100+ FTE , one of the most successful German fintechs, active in 17 markets across the EU and USA, and sold it in 2021 for a € three-digit million amount to NYSE-listed Paysafe Group. Now we’re off to our next venture. This time we’re building a global champion for prepaid products: gift cards (Apple, Amazon, Google), airtime and eCash all in one simple API. Think of finperks as a stripe/adyen for all prepaid products and payments. We started in summer 2025 and in just a few months we have already onboarded 700+ brands, and our first client goes live by the end of the year. Many people completely underestimate the market size: about €600bn sold per year today, going to €1.8tn by 2028. Instead of 5 players in the chain (brand → issuing tech provider → global distributor → local distributor → client), we connect brands directly with clients via the finperks platform. Today 95% of prepaid is still sold in the Global North; we believe that for the gig economy to monetize the Global South, prepaid will be key - from Netflix and Google to Apple and Uber. We’re a team of <20 in Berlin-Charlottenburg. A mix of our best people from the last journey and brilliant new joiners. High ownership. Low ego. Kind humans. We ship fast, help each other, and celebrate wins. Join early. Help build the global champion for prepaid!
