About the role

We're looking for a Visiting Analyst to join our Berlin office for six to nine months.

You're a student or recent graduate with a technical background: engineering, computer science, maths, physics or another science. You want to see what early-stage investing is like from the inside, and you can build things.

That second part matters. A large part of this role is building how PT1 works. We run on our own stack for sourcing, diligence and portfolio work, and people who've seen it call it the most advanced VC stack they know. You'll help us push it further.

About PT1

PT1 is an independent early-stage VC with offices in Berlin and London. We invest in companies that electrify energy and buildings, automate construction and industry, and make infrastructure more resilient.

Our portfolio includes Voltfang, ecoworks, PlanRadar, Wunderflats, Terra One, Gendo, Beagle, Climate X and AUAR. We've invested alongside Visionaries, ForwardOne, Daphni, Insight Partners, Google Ventures, Zacua Ventures and Aenu.

How we work

We're a small team, and PT1 feels more like a well-funded startup than a classic fund. Everyone here has shaped the firm, from how we run diligence to which theses we chase to the tools we've built. That includes people who were only with us for a few months.

The job

• Improve our platform. Build and extend the tools, data pipelines and AI workflows the team uses every day. You'll own projects, not tickets.

• Research markets and help develop investment theses. We start from a view on where a market is going, then look for the companies that fit it.

• Work on live deals with the team: screening, market and competitor research, first models, memo sections.

• Help our portfolio companies on specific projects.

About you

• Studying or recently graduated in engineering, CS, maths, natural sciences, or similar

• You can build. Python, data, APIs, LLM tooling or whatever gets the job done.

• Comfortable with numbers. Finance experience is a plus, not a requirement; we'll teach you how we model.

• Interested in energy, infrastructure, construction or automation

• Fluent in English. German helps.

• Available full-time for six to nine months, based in Berlin

• Right to work in Germany

What we offer

• Deal work and platform work from week one

• A stack you can actually change, and a team that will use what you build the next day

• A clear look at how early-stage investing works, so you'll know whether it's for you

• Our Berlin office with links to the London team

• A network across Europe's energy, infrastructure and automation scene that stays with you after you leave
