About Secfix
At Secfix, we’re at the forefront of automating security compliance for startups and SMBs in Europe. We help companies get and stay ISO 27001, GDPR, TISAX, and SOC 2 fast and easy and reduce hundreds of hours of manual work.
Secfix is run by a 100% remote team with hubs in Munich, Berlin and London. We’re a high-performing team looking for a passionate, execution-focused intern to help us automate security and compliance for modern companies and become the European compliance automation leader. We’re backed by top VCs, including Octopus Ventures, Neosfer (Commerzbank), founders of Signavio and many more business angels.
You should apply if:

• You are a student or recent graduate looking to gain experience in business development, GTM, or tech startups

• You love building relationships and aren’t afraid to pick up the phone or hit “send” on a bold email

• You thrive in a fast-paced, target-driven environment

• You are naturally empathetic and curious—you love learning about people and their problems

• You want to build and improve outreach strategies and add structure to chaotic environments

• You are creative and proactive—always looking for ways to stand out and test new approaches

• You are tech-savvy and excited to learn tools like HubSpot, Sales Navigator, Zapier, Clay, and more

• You have excellent written and spoken English and German skills and an exceptional feel for language and messaging

You don’t need a background in sales or a deep knowledge of compliance—just a strong desire to learn and contribute.
What You'll Do:
As a Business Development & GTM Intern at Secfix, you’ll be contributing to one of the most impactful areas of the company: how we go to market.

Nice-to-have:

• Previous internship or student work experience in a startup, VC, consulting, or operations team

Please note: We are an equal-opportunity employer and remote-only company. At this time, we can support hiring only within EU time zones. We work in sync using Gather as our virtual office. As a small fast-growing company, we believe in the need for an in-sync component of daily communication and therefore cannot support 100% asynchronous work. Read more about our Remote Culture here.
