Head of Data (BI & Analytics)
Location: Full Onsite. Berlin Mitte, Germany.
About the Company
The AI-driven trade platform transforming industrial supply in infrastructure, energy, and construction materials. It connects vetted suppliers across Asia, Europe, and the GCC region with local demand through a single integrated platform.
Its proprietary AI stack digitizes and automates the full lifecycle of materials trade — from procurement and pricing to inventory, logistics, and embedded financing — replacing thousands of manual, relationship-driven processes with real-time orchestration.
Buyers gain instant quotes, reliable availability, and predictable delivery through a unified operating system. Suppliers benefit from accurate forecasting, disciplined demand management, and seamless integration into cross-border fulfillment networks. The company partners with leading brands to run both dropship and cross-dock fulfillment motions for large-scale transactions, turning global supply chains into predictable, repeatable, software-like workflows.
Backed by top-tier investors and institutional financing partners, the company has scaled to triple-digit-million GMV, operates across six international markets, and is rapidly expanding toward profitability. With a team of 80+ people across Berlin (HQ) and Asia, it is building the world’s first industrial-grade AI operating system for materials — redefining how global trade works in one of the world’s largest and most essential industries.
About the Role
You will lead and further develop the Data functions, specifically the engine that turns raw operational signals into real-time intelligence for Sales, Operations, Procurement, and Finance.
This is not a back-office analytics role, it’s a front-line leadership role. You’ll own our data models, pipelines, and metrics - and develop AI-assisted systems that anticipate what happens next: which deal closes, which lane fails, which customer churns, which supplier delays, and how all our Agentic AI performs.
You’ll partner closely with Growth, Operations, and Product to turn data into a competitive advantage - running the daily rhythm of dashboards, forecasts, and decisions that move millions in GMV each week.
As part of our management leadership team, you will have a pathway to multi-region oversight, a highly competitive compensation package with performance-based incentives, and the opportunity to shape a high-performance organization from our Berlin headquarters, backed by top-tier investors.
