To pave a new era of brokerage by building the infrastructure for FinTech companies to launch an investing feature or product in Europe.
Role
Who you are
- You have a background in Business Administration, Economics, Finance, Computer science or a similar area
- You are an entrepreneurial problem solver. You strive to take ownership of the tasks you get and apply your analytical skills, structured thinking, and independent working style towards solving them
- You have gained hands-on experience in a fast-paced environment. You understand what working in a startup or a similar lean organisation is like. Ideally, you have worked in an early-stage startup, fintech, consulting, tech company or similar
- You are ready and willing to take ownership. “This is not my job!” is not part of your vocabulary - you identify problems, take initiative to take them on, and challenge the status quo
- You cope well with frequent change and ambiguity. Changing tasks & requirements excite you. You are able to think logically, break down complex problems and prioritise between multiple tasks on your table
- You have a hands-on mentality. You default into action, want to gather first learnings fast, and iterate on the progress along the way
- You are a team player. Working together as a team and sharing knowledge comes naturally to you
- You have no problem with learning new tools and skills on the go. You try to solve problems with more things than the ones you already know. We will always enable you with that, but your willingness has to come first
What the job involves
- As a Founder’s Associate Intern, you will support the leadership team here at lemon.markets, making sure the business grows & runs smoothly, ensuring alignment across all business areas
- You will work on a selection of diverse projects ranging from Strategy & Operations, to Business Development & Go-to-Market. These projects are hard to forecast and will highly depend on needs evolving from the phase lemon.markets is in, as well as hugely on your interests and the skill set you already bring along
- Support the leadership team on strategic projects: Help develop business strategies & execute on them, making sure we stay aligned with our company goals & objectives
- Further, define & develop our GTM strategy: Continuously research and analyse market trends, conduct competitor activities, and stay up to date with the changing Brokerage landscape in Europe
- Drive various strategic initiatives to help us prepare for our go-live, ramping up business operations and ensuring operational readiness
- Critically question, analyse and improve existing processes. Constantly aim to improve our existing setup, build world class processes around it, that enable us to have a smoothly running organisation
Application process
- Hiring can be an exhausting process, especially when you're the one trying to get hired. Therefore, we try to make this a fast and transparent process. Additionally, you will always have one contact person guiding you through the process and helping you to schedule meetings, and setting you up on a path to success.

Our take
Though stock trading is a growing market, the European market has historically lacked the required tech and infrastructure required for companies to implement brokerage offerings into their systems. Enter lemon.markets, a next-generation API-first solution for stock trading which enables developers to build their own investment and trading tools from a single, easy-to-use API platform.
Bridging the gap between European tech firms and functional stock market trading capabilities, the company’s infrastructure enables full management of brokerage accounts, and easy retrieval of historical and real-time market data, all through a simple dashboard or mobile app.
After securing one of 2022’s largest seed funding rounds in Europe, which was co-led by Lakestar and Lightspeed, lemon.markets is focusing its efforts on becoming a regulated brokerage provider, furthering product development, and deepening its core partnerships. The young company is well-positioned to see substantial growth as it extends its capabilities and cutting-edge infrastructure.
