About the role
Location: Paris, Station F, on-site
Start date: Q1-Q2 2027. Minimum 6 months, can be extended.
Type: Full-time.
Compensation: 1500-2000 euros (depends on the experience) + first month of accommodation + 12 euros lunch-ticket per day
Our mission is to power the next industrial revolution. The first industrial revolution was about machines. The next one will be about autonomous factories. At Allude, we're building the infrastructure layer to make that happen.
Manufacturing is the backbone of humanity, representing an industry of 16T$ in the world. Yet, most of the knowledge needed to run a factory is not written anywhere: it lives in workers' heads, that eventually retire or leave. All documentation is mandatory, but manual, thus poorly done. This lack of capitalization leads to bad decisions → repeated mistakes, downtime and yield loss. A single mistake in a factory costs on average $80k, and mistakes happen several times a week! In total, factories lose $650B every year.
Allude starts by solving knowledge capture by making it effortless. With our first product, our customers film their experts working on the factory floor. In under two minutes, our AI agent turns the video into a structured procedure. Once knowledge is captured, we contextualize it by mapping the relationships between processes, products, and machines. This creates the context AI agents need to understand operations and surface optimization opportunities, unlocking millions in savings.
Backed by amazing investors (just raised our seed round), as well as ex-Palantir, ex-OpenAI and Hugging Face experts. Started at Entrepreneur First, now at Station F, Paris. Currently working and deploying in billion-dollar companies, like Mars, Renault, Thales!
It's still day 1. You will be one of our first engineers: you come early enough so that what you build in the next 6 months will still be shaping the product in 3 years. Come build the future of autonomous factories with us!
What you will do
Your mission is simple: build the GTM engine that fills our calendar with meetings with the German's best manufacturers. You'll work directly with our CEO Eva, Jeanne (Employee #1) and our Founding Sales.
You'll:
Build and run outbound campaigns across cold calling (works really well from 5 to 7pm with our ICP 😊), email, and LinkedIn to generate qualified meetings.
Continuously optimize these campaigns based on performance metrics (response rates, conversion rates, meeting attendance etc…).
Work closely with the founder to refine and evolve our ICP (Ideal Customer Profile).
Build Allude's outbound sales engine from the ground up: the tools and the processes needed.
Identify and organize Allude's presence at targeted fairs and industry events, (logistics, booth coordination, meeting scheduling).
Follow customers during the entire sales process, from first call to deal closing.
Provide weekly reporting on outbound activity and pipeline generation.
You need to be ready to go to factories and meet our customers live! We promise you're gonna have fun 🤩n the tooling, patterns, and rigor that will be adopted by every engineer who joins after you.
👀 Who we're looking for
You'll be a founder in the next years
You're highly accountable → If something is on your plate, we can trust you to drive it to the end. Founders can trust that it will be done on time and without needing review.
High-energy, optimistic and extrovert (we have cold calls to do)
Entrepreneurial mindset → You take ownership without being asked, you welcome feedback, you're an insatiable learner, you go the extra mile. You're excited by the idea of building from zero and you are comfortable with the intensity and hours of an early-stage company.
