Working Student Automations/AI (f/m/d)

AI is reshaping how companies work and you'll be at the center of it at nilo. Working with every team (Sales, Ops, Finance, HR, Marketing), you'll spot where smart automation can free people up for the work that actually matters, then build it and ship it. From week one, your automations run in production and save real hours across the company.

• Availability: 20 hours/week (flexible around your lectures)

• Enrollment: Must be actively enrolled at a German university for at least another 12 months (Bachelor or Master)

• Location: Berlin-based (Hybrid: min. 2+ days/week in our office for in-person collaboration)

• Start Date: asap

What you'll do

• Sit with teams, map their workflows, and spot what's automatable

• Build and ship automations using tools like n8n with and without AI agents

• Train colleagues and gather feedback: adoption matters as much as the build

• Track impact: hours saved, errors reduced, processes sped up

• Take real ownership: your automations run in production, used by real teams

Example projects: auto-generating weekly reports from our CRM, an AI triage bot for support inboxes, automated invoice data extraction, onboarding checklist automation.

Who we're looking for

• You're enrolled at a university in Germany, ideally in a Bachelor's or Master's program in computer science, engineering, business, economics, or another analytical field. The degree matters less than the evidence: you write code (Python or JavaScript) and are comfortable connecting different tools and automating workflows.

• Very self-driven and curious, with a track record of building things independently. e.g. side projects, hackathons, open-source contributions or a bot that runs your life ;)

• Hands-on experience with LLMs and AI tooling: prompting, RAG, agents, MCP and eager to experiment with whatever ships next

• Experience with low-code platforms (n8n, Make, Zapier) or webhooks

• Able to quickly understand a business process and translate it into an automation opportunity. We need working solutions people adopt, not just technical demos

• You’re based in Berlin and available for regular in-person collaboration with our team; even if the role includes remote flexibility (2+ days in the office)

• You have a sharp eye for detail and a structured, reliable way of working; whether you’re cleaning data, preparing reports, or working on a process doc.

• Experience with spreadsheets as a data layer (Google Sheets / Excel formulas, connected data sources)

  Nice to have

• Experience with CRM tools like Pipedrive, HubSpot, or Salesforce.

• Working knowledge of databases and SQL - querying and modeling data in BigQuery, AWS (Redshift/Athena), PostgreSQL, or similar

• Familiarity with version control (Git) and a structured, iterative approach to building and debugging

• Exposure to data visualization / BI tools (Metabase, Looker, Power BI) or webhook-driven notifications (e.g. Slack bots)

What you get:

• Responsibility meets creativity: At nilo, you’ll actively shape the way we work and bring your ideas to life.

• Your growth, our support: Whether it's training, conferences, or coaching – we support your personal and professional development with an annual development budget.

• Mental strength with our nilo app: Enjoy free access to our nilo app for proactive and preventive mental health support – anytime you need it (incl. family support)

• Hybrid setup: Two in-office days keep us connected, the rest of the week is yours to shape.

• Stay active: Benefit from an Urban Sports Club membership at a discounted rate.

• We’re team players: Look forward to regular team and company events.

• Dog-friendly office: Your four-legged friend is always welcome.
