my first experience in an early-stage scaling startup - at that time valued at €13 million

job shadowed the company’s ceo and worked alongside a team of 8, helping citya leverage its position in the demand-responsive transportation and on-demand transit space

explored potential product features and pivot opportunities while learning that in startups, “there’s always something to do, and always many things to do”

the echo:

• shaped citya’s strategic positioning through a competitive analysis of 30+ demand-responsive/on-demand transit companies, generating targeted product feedback and identifying expansion opportunities

• engaged with early clients (B2B, B2G) in sales meetings to gather research-driven feedback that refined development and sales strategies and defined citya’s competitive edge
