- Contribute to solving straightforward challenges and delivering incremental improvements.
Your professional skills and background:
- Up to 2 years of experience in product management, business analysis, or a similar role.
- Basic understanding of IT systems and product development processes.
- Familiarity with backlog management and prioritization of user stories.
- Analytical and collaborative mindset, able to collect and structure data into clear insights; strong communication skills.
- Fluent English; other languages are a plus.
- Recently obtained Bachelor’s degree in Business, Economics, IT, or a related field.
What we offer:
🚀 Meaning. Ground-floor opportunity to change the world of investing as we know it.
❤️ Care and attention. You will get health insurance, but more importantly, you will get a team of genuinely great co-workers who will support you in your work and share some more or less funny jokes along the way. We want you to enjoy your job, not stress about it. Learn more about Mintos virtues here.
💶 Stock options. In addition to a competitive salary, you’ll get a stake in Mintos. We believe in what we do, and we hire people who own the work they do. This lets you participate in the value you help to create at Mintos.
🧠 A personal learning budget. €1000 EUR each year for your professional development, including access to our book library. Choose how to use this yourself - take courses, visit conferences, etc.
⏰ Flexibility. We trust you to shape your day in a way that fits both your rhythm and your team’s needs.
🏝 A flexible vacation policy. At Mintos we don’t limit vacation time to the 4 weeks stipulated by law.
☕️ Snacks and drinks. Our kitchen is always packed with tasty snacks and drinks. If you got into the flow and stayed in the office longer than usual - the dinner is on us. And there is also a canteen downstairs in our building, providing healthy lunch options.
🚗 Parking. We’ve got you covered with access to parking near the office.
💺Massage chair. Need a quick break? Enjoy a massage and return to work refreshed and re-energized.
😴 Naproom. On days when you came to the office but got sugar-crushed from too many Nutella coated snacks, take a power nap to get your energy back to optimal levels.
🚲 Shower. Cycling or running to work in the morning or going to the gym during lunch? We have showers. And we like sports.
