Company mission
Cosuno's mission is to re-invent construction software by helping construction companies find subcontractors, send out requests for proposals, and manage the pre-construction bidding process more productively.
Role
Who you are
- You've shaped an API from the product side. You've defined, together with customers and engineering, what a public API or integration of a SaaS product exposes: endpoints, data models, auth, permissions
- You're technical enough to go deep with engineers. Webhooks vs. polling, pagination, rate limits, OAuth: you can discuss trade-offs, and you test APIs yourself
- You find the real need. You've worked directly with customers, separated what they ask for from what they really need, and found what it takes for them to use an integration
- You write tickets engineers love. Clear scope, clear acceptance criteria, and a clear line on what's out of scope. You prioritize by impact, not by who shouts loudest
- You're fast. You ship in weeks, not quarters, and you build, learn and iterate in parallel
- You explain complex things simply, to a construction company's project manager as well as to internal stakeholders like our commercial teams or our management
- You live AI. You use LLM assistants and MCPs every day, and you've built your own automations
- You keep growing. You actively build your skills, and you seek and act on feedback
- Fluent German and English. Our customers are German construction companies who work in German. Our engineering team works in English
- Based in Germany and open to traveling to customers across the country
- Bonus points if you've helped build an MCP server that customers use, or if you know construction tech, ERP or estimating systems (e.g. RIB iTWO, SAP, Nevaris)
What the job involves
- Get to know our customers. Your first weeks are all about listening. You'll talk to customers and find out what it takes for our REST API and connectors to become part of their daily work. Together with Engineering, Customer Success and Sales, you'll turn those insights into a clear roadmap. You'll also set up the tracking that shows how much of our customers' work flows in through integrations
- Launch the first API improvements and our first MCP server. You'll shape both, write the engineering tickets and roll them out to our first pilot customers, all within your first few months
- Decide what comes next. Once real usage data and pilot feedback come in, you'll make clear recommendations on what to build and decide on the way forward together with our CTO and Head of Product
- Make integrations the norm. By the end of your first year, far more of our customers will run Cosuno connected to the tools they rely on, and you'll be the one who made it happen
- It's an ambitious plan, and that's what makes it fun: you'll see the impact of your work directly in our customers' day-to-day
- Full ownership: You own integrations end to end, from the first customer conversation to the shipped feature. Engineering takes care of the implementation
- Close to the customer: You'll talk to customers constantly, mostly remotely, sometimes on-site across Germany
- Technical by nature: You'll read API docs, test endpoints yourself and discuss data models with engineers. You don't write production code
- AI-first: We use AI deeply in our product and in our daily work, and we expect you to do the same
Our take
Cosuno predicts that traditional methods of bidding and awarding construction services are obsolete, associated with significant wasted time and a lack of transparency. The startup aims to solve this problem by developing a B2B marketplace that provides project managers access to a database of around 80,000 subcontractors related to the construction industry.
Consuno's business model involves charging clients a monthly fee for access to their Software-as-a-Service product. Clients advertise their projects on the platform, receive applications from contractors in the area and approve the bids from the selected applicant. By 2021, over €1bn had been processed in transactions through the platform since its conception.
The construction industry is currently experiencing rapid growth, leading to a scarce labour force and increased prices. Cosuno aims to capitalise on this opportunity. It's digitising the construction industry and providing project managers with a one-stop shop that allows them to manage everything related to working with construction subcontractors, all on just one platform.
