Internship BD

Hallo!

We’re nydo: a well-funded, founder-led D2C brand reinventing the premium sofa. We combine Italian-inspired design, honest European craftsmanship and obsessively good comfort to build timeless pieces people keep for years — all sold through a tightly integrated online + offline experience. We move fast, think big and scale across Europe.

Why ambitious people love nydo

1. Real ownership from day one. You’ll join a small leadership team and have your own outcomes (not tasks). Your work will shape product, ops and growth, and you’ll see the impact within weeks, not years.
2. Speed + scale. We’re well funded and ready to grow quickly across markets. That means high velocity decision-making, big projects, and plenty of runway to test bold ideas.
3. Premium product, clear mission. We sell well-made sofas that people love thoughtful materials, long warranties and a service experience that turns customers into fans.
4. Founder-adjacent learning. Work directly with the founders and investors, present to stakeholders, and help write the playbook as we scale.

Our values (how we work)

• Design: elegant, simple, distinct.
• Comfort: the product promises; everything else supports it.
• Ownership: we ship and we own outcomes.
• Curiosity & speed: test, measure, learn, repeat.
• Hands-on execution: we embrace 80-20 and love to get things done
