Description provided by Cirkular

Cirkular is rethinking the way we interact with the things we own. We are building a future where selling, repairing, and renting is as simple as buying. A click of a button. Everyone does it. Because our things can do more. We can do more. And we started with selling. With Cirkular our users can sell everything they own in their home in seconds. As simple as ordering an Uber. And it’s going well.


By now, many users manage large parts of their household through Cirkular - often 50, 70, sometimes 100+ quality items across categories: electronics, designer fashion, jewelry, household appliances, sporting gear, furniture, collectibles, even art.


As our user base and the portfolio of items on the platform expands, we are focusing on the optimal flow of goods from user handover to resale readiness. The goal is simple: Build a system that works, operating from an AI- and partner first mindset.


This is a hands-on role, close to the heart of the company – the stream of high-quality products waiting for their second life, working tightly with Founders, Operations and Resale teams, key Partners, and our AI.

 

What you will do


  • Work across full item flow: goods intake, QA & review, functionality checks, storage, fulfillment, returns
  • Work hand-in-hand with our AI to review, assess and route products to the right partner: condition, authenticity, resale readiness, next-best action
  • Help train our AI agents by giving structured feedback from real-world edge cases
  • Spot improvement opportunities in processes, suggest solutions, and help us make the organization better
  • Use our resale OS to help route items to the right resale channels and partners
  • Research and identify new resale channels and partners
  • Work with our logistics partner on-site and help coordinate smooth day-to-day operations


What you bring

 

  • Curious, and entrepreneurial, full of your own ideas
  • Interest in real-world consumer ops: goods intake, QA, warehousing, logistics, fulfillment, resale
  • Detail-oriented, high standards, care and love for what you do
  • Genuinely curious and good understanding about the world of things - brands, products, design, quality, trends. From vintage Rolex and designer apparel to latest tech to rare collectibles.
  • Hands-on, fast, and not afraid of messy early-stage reality
  • Uses AI daily and loves pushing its limits.
  • Currently enrolled in a university program
  • Based in Berlin, ability to work onsite in our Berlin Mahlsdorf Office/Warehouse
  • Fluent in English. German is a strong plus

 

What we offer


We have strong traction (rapidly growing user base, working product, strong recommerce partnerships). We recently closed an investment round. You’ll work on a product that rethinks how people interact with the things they own - and, in doing so, how the economy works.

Working student essentials

What this Logistics working student role means for you in Germany: the hours rules, the social-contribution perks, and what international students should check before applying.

Weekly hours

Working students may work up to 20 hours a week during the semester and full-time during the breaks. Staying within this keeps your student status and the Werkstudent benefits.

Working student rules

Social contributions

Under the Werkstudentenprivileg you're exempt from health, care and unemployment insurance contributions — only pension insurance applies. That leaves more net pay than a regular job.

Check your insurance

International students

Non-EU students can work 140 full or 280 half days per year (raised from 120/240 in March 2024). A working student contract usually fits within this — confirm the exact limits printed on your residence permit.
