Summary Generated by Built In

Veloq is the software platform powering the next generation of grocery fulfilment. Born from Rohlik Group's proprietary technology and operational excellence across five European markets, we are now a standalone technology company empowering grocers to transform their warehouse operations and scale their same day e-grocery offering. Our modular platform spans automated picking, e-commerce fulfilment, and last-mile logistics and is built to power online grocery profitably.

You will have real ownership over your function, direct access to the CEO, and equity in a company at the beginning of a major growth curve.

You are the operational core of Veloq. This role covers executive support, business operations, and the internal systems that keep a fast-scaling startup from falling apart at the seams.
