Play a central role in positioning applike group as an emerging global tech company.
Act as the founders' right hand in crafting high-impact communications for applike group and its entities: from keynote scripts to strategic LinkedIn positioning and other media channels, ensuring world-class founder branding.
Own our press relations: not just issuing releases, but leveraging a deep network of tech and business journalists and knowing exactly how to place stories that move the needle.
Translate complex technical topics (software, industry, product messaging) into clear narratives for a global audience, and be willing to write critical, market-specific pieces when required.
Foster cultural understanding and incorporate a sense of regional identity into our communications.
Build, protect, and project our reputation during hypergrowth, ensuring seamless internal and external messaging.
Requirements

Proven track record of managing high-level corporate communications and building a founder’s brand in a fast-paced tech environment—this is our top criterion.
Fluent in both English and German (written and spoken) at a highly professional level to support our global presence from Germany to Singapore, Brazil, and the US. Comfortable switching between a German internal alignment meeting and writing for an international tech audience.
