WHO ARE WE?

WTX was recently founded to disrupt how heavy-duty vehicles trade globally and we believe the current process of buying or selling trucks worldwide is too complicated, nontransparent, and underoptimized. It doesn't need to be this way...

Our mission is to make the whole experience of trading trucks globally seamless, from finding a truck online to more efficiently and reliably being delivered with matching technology. 

We are powered by KI group, investors, and partners in the industry with a proven track record of co-founding and running successful and impactful businesses worldwide.

We have a remote-friendly policy, so our team members are able to work from home but also leverage our cool office in Stuttgart.

Up for the challenge?

We are looking for an eager and excited Visiting Business Development Associate who’s ready to dive into all sales aspects of a B2B marketplace startup. You will work directly with the founding team from Daimler Trucks and KI group to collaborate on various business development projects and initiatives that will help drive us towards our company-wide goals. This is a great opportunity to gather hands-on experience in a fun startup environment, and have a direct impact on key deliverables. Our team is excited to bring on new interns to teach and develop over the next months.
Join us in disrupting the used heavy duty vehicles market!
