IndustryLens is a small, remote-first team building an AI-powered competitive-intelligence product for B2B SaaS companies. We track competitors' pricing, product changes, hiring, messaging and AI-strategy moves, and turn that into weekly briefings, battlecards and a live dashboard for our customers. The founder, Naveed, is based in Berlin; the rest of the team works remotely, including a teammate in the Philippines.
We're looking for a mandatory-internship (Pflichtpraktikum) or Erasmus+ traineeship student, ideally studying business, business informatics, marketing or a related field, to work alongside us for 5–6 months. The role is hybrid or fully remote — most of the work happens online regardless of location, and we'll agree the working pattern with you directly.
What you'd work on:
- Competitor teardowns when we enter a new market: researching a company's pricing, product, positioning and recent moves, and writing it up in our format.
- Quality checks on the insights our pipeline generates, comparing what's written against the underlying source material to catch errors before customers see them.
- Market research to size and scope new verticals we might track.
- SEO and content work on our own site and reports.
- Building and qualifying outbound contact lists for our own sales outreach.
- Community work on LinkedIn and Reddit, engaging honestly with relevant conversations rather than posting generic marketing copy.
What we're looking for: curiosity about how B2B software companies compete, comfort with research and writing, basic spreadsheet/data skills, and the ability to work independently in a small remote team. No prior SaaS or competitive-intelligence experience required — we'll teach you the method.
Practicalities: 5–6 months, in line with your university's mandatory-internship or Erasmus+ traineeship requirements. We'll sign the internship contract or Learning Agreement for Traineeships your university needs, provide a named supervisor, agree a task plan up front, and issue a completion certificate at the end. We are open to discussing a small monthly stipend.
