About the role

Join ZeroPhase as our Design & Marketing Intern and take direct ownership of how we show up externally. You will work closely with the founding team to build a consistent corporate visual language, establish a content cadence on LinkedIn, create reusable templates for sales and communications, and develop our website from content to layout. This is not a support role. You will own deliverables from day one, and your work will be visible to customers, partners, and investors.

What you'll do

Brand & visual identity

  • Develop and maintain a consistent visual identity and corporate language across all external touchpoints
  • Build a reusable template library for pitch decks, one-pagers, proposals, and internal documents
  • Create brand guidelines the entire team can apply independently

Content & social media

  • Own the weekly LinkedIn content pipeline: posts, announcements, and company updates
  • Translate complex technical topics into clear, compelling content for a defence and technology audience
  • Contribute to the development of an overarching content and communications strategy

Website

  • Manage and improve our website, from content updates to layout improvements and copy editing
  • Ensure the website reflects the quality and seriousness of our technology and our team

What we're looking for

  • Currently enrolled in a degree program in communication design, graphic design, marketing, media studies, or a related field.
  • Strong visual judgment: a clear point of view on typography, layout, and brand consistency.
  • Proficient in Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, or comparable design tools.
  • Fluent in English; German is a plus.
  • Structured, proactive, and able to work independently without a detailed brief.
  • Genuine interest in deep tech, defence, or complex technical products.

How the hiring process works

  1. Intro call. 30 minutes with our recruiting team. We'll learn about your background, and you'll learn about the mission.
  2. Deep dive. A working session with the marketing team on a small design or content brief.
  3. Case study, in Munich. A visit to the office to build out a mini creative brief with the team, in person if you can make it or over Teams if you can't.
  4. The offer. By now you've likely already met our CEO. This round is where we make it official: fast, transparent, and built around the mission.
