We're building the platform for creating consumer-facing AI voice agents.

Phone calls have long had a bad reputation. All of us have been stuck in long waiting queues, dealt with unhelpful support agents, or listened to endless hold music. Even though voice is the most natural way to communicate, it has never scaled for businesses.

We believe that every B2C company in the world - from energy providers, to telecoms, to insurances - will have AI voice agents that interact with their customers. The number of business-to-consumer conversations over the phone is going to explode in the coming years. As LLMs get better and better it will become an absolute no-brainer to use voice agents to provide consumers with a great experience.

The opportunity is massive and we know we can win.

mission

As the Founder's Associate Intern at telli, you'll work right alongside the founding team across finance, legal, ops, and special projects. You'll have a front-row seat to how an early-stage AI company operates and a very hands-on role in keeping things running and moving fast.

what you’ll do:

• help us build the operational backbone behind telli's growth

• take on special projects, driving initiatives forward by coordinating stakeholders and keeping everything on track

• support with finance operations by maintaining reports, chasing invoices, and managing payment flow

• help the growth team close new customers by managing legal and compliance processes

• support with our hiring pipeline, from screening candidates to scheduling interviews

• help plan and execute internal and external events and keep the office running smoothly

• work closely with Ennie and Philipp

what makes you a great fit:

• you are hands-on and not afraid of doing unglamorous work

• you're tech- & automation savvy and can learn new tools fast

• you love solving problems and figuring things out on your own

• you’re a strong communicator in both English and German

• you’ve have initial (internship) experience and/or worked on side hustles or projects

• you're done or at the end of university and could imagine starting full-time after the internship

you may not make a good fit if:

• you have never touched automation/AI tools or don’t have basic technical understanding

• you only want to do high-level “strategic” work

• you aren’t comfortable juggling multiple tasks at once

• you don’t enjoy working directly with customers or in dynamic environments

• you’re only looking for a typical 9–5 internship
