What you can expect from us

Alpha Leap is a small, employee-owned AI innovation hub based in Gothenburg.

We're not a traditional consultancy and not a big corporate machine. We're building products, new ventures, and meaningful AI solutions together with ambitious companies — and we're building the company itself at the same time.

Here, you won't be "a resource on a project."

You'll:

• work directly with the founding team, not a manager three layers up

• have real autonomy and trust from day one

• see how an investor-backed, early-stage company actually operates — from the inside

• influence culture, processes, and decisions

We care deeply about: kindness, curiosity, craft, and ownership.

Small team = big impact. Your voice actually matters here.

Why this role exists

Honestly? There are things we need to get done that we're not getting done well enough right now — because they pull time and energy away from the work we should be focused on.

Admin, finance routines, recruitment coordination, sales support. It's not glamorous, but it's real, it matters, and someone needs to own it.

We think the right person for this isn't someone who wants a defined job. It's someone who looks at a messy to-do list and starts building a system around it.

We're moving toward being a fully AI-first company — where large parts of admin, sales support, and recruitment run on automated, intelligent workflows. We're not there yet. And while we're building toward that, someone still needs to keep things moving.

That's part of what makes this role interesting. You won't just be holding the fort — you'll be helping us figure out what these workflows should actually look like before we automate them. If you want to understand how AI gets applied to real operational problems, this is a pretty good place to learn it from the inside.

What you'll likely be doing

The role is broad by design. Based on where we are right now, you'll probably spend time on:

• Admin & finance: setting up and maintaining routines for salary runs, expenses, invoices, and parts of our monthly reporting — and automating wherever possible

• Recruitment support: coordinating candidates, managing pipeline logistics, helping with outreach

• Sales & marketing support: helping set up LinkedIn campaigns, supporting follow-up and research

• Internal projects: as we get to know each other, you'll likely get pulled into other things too

The exact mix will depend on you — what you're good at, what you enjoy, and what we need most.

What we expect from you

You're structured without being rigid. You can take a vague ask and turn it into a working routine. You're tech-savvy enough to pick up new tools fast and curious enough to figure things out without someone walking you through every step.

You probably:

• like building systems more than just completing tasks

• are in your final or second-to-last year of a relevant program (Industrial Engineering, Business, Economics — or something similar)

• are comfortable working autonomously with minimal hand-holding

• communicate clearly when something is unclear or blocked

• use AI tools as a natural part of how you work — not as a novelty, but as a default

• are fluent in both Swedish and English (we work in both, daily)

You don't need to be the most social person. But you do need to be reliable.

What makes someone thrive here

You might be a great fit if you:

• take ownership without waiting for instructions

• think in systems, not just tasks

• communicate clearly and directly

• care about doing things properly, not just getting them done

• want to understand how a company works, not just your corner of it

What this is not

Alpha Leap is still early. We don't have rigid structures, fixed processes, or detailed onboarding programs.

If you want everything to be defined before you start, this will probably feel frustrating.

If you'd rather just get in and figure it out — you'll probably enjoy it.
