(Senior) Startup Operations Manager (m/f/d)

Become part of Enpal Pro and help build a fast-growing scale-up. We sell hardware and Enpal services to tradespeople and drive the energy transition together. Our goal is a solar system on every roof, a storage unit in every house, and an electric car in every garage. Enpal makes this possible with an integrated overall solution for decentralized energy – from solar systems and battery storage to wallboxes, smart meters, and heat pumps. The heart of this is our AI-powered platform Enpal.One+, which intelligently connects thousands of systems and efficiently optimizes electricity procurement and feed-in on the energy market.

Are you ready for solutions that are more than just a promise and bring real quality of life to thousands of households every day? What you shape at Enpal delivers clean electricity tomorrow and sustainably changes how we use energy.

Your Tasks

• You optimize and standardize Ops processes along the supply chain with a focus on logistics, material planning, purchasing, and warehousing.

• You identify inefficiencies, conduct root-cause analyses, and implement measurable improvements (e.g., lead times, inventory levels, delivery performance, missing parts).

• You build analyses, dashboards, and reporting for operational control (E2E transparency, bottlenecks, SLA and ticket tracking).

• You define and manage central KPIs (e.g., OTIF, Inventory Accuracy, Stock Turns, Backlog, Ticket Aging) including interpretation and deriving actions.

• You drive end-to-end projects: scope/business case, prioritization, implementation, rollout, adoption, and sustainable anchoring (SOPs, training).

• You manage stakeholders cross-functionally in Operations as well as at the interfaces to Product (incl. Leads Product) and Tech (data, automation, tooling).

• You deliver clear recommendations and updates in direct reporting to the Managing Directors (reviews, decisions, action tracking).

Your Profile

• 2 years of relevant professional experience in Operations / Supply Chain, process optimization, analytics, or a comparable, data-driven environment.

• Background from high-performance environments (start-up/scale-up, management consulting, PE/VC, venture building) is a strong plus.

• You combine analytical excellence with ownership: you work in a structured, decision-oriented manner and consistently bring topics to a conclusion.

• You are strong in stakeholder management (alignment, decision-making, conflict resolution, clear communication).

• You have experience in KPI setup and reporting/dashboards (e.g., data aggregation in Snowflake/AirTable + data visualization in Tableau/PowerBI).

• You can clearly translate requirements between Ops, Product, and Tech.

• Fluent German and English.
