About Solen Software Group

Solen Software Group is a long-term owner and operator of mission-critical B2B software companies. We acquire proven, profitable software businesses and partner with founders and management teams to build enduring market leaders. Unlike traditional private equity firms, Solen invests with permanent capital — focused on long-term value creation rather than short-term financial engineering.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a highly motivated intern to join our corporate development team and help us identify and evaluate acquisition opportunities. The role offers hands-on exposure to the early stages of the M&A process, from market research and target identification to financial analysis, initial opportunity assessment, and outreach to founders. As part of a lean team, you will work directly with Solen's M&A professionals, take ownership of meaningful projects, and contribute to real acquisition decisions. This is an opportunity for someone interested in M&A, strategy, and evaluating businesses to develop strong analytical and commercial skills in a fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities

- Research and map markets to identify potential B2B software acquisition targets.

- Build and maintain databases of potential acquisition targets.

- Gather and analyze financial and operational information on target companies.

- Support the preliminary evaluation of companies and their strategic fit.

- Monitor industry trends, market developments, and competitor activity.

- Help develop and refine target selection criteria and acquisition strategies.

- Prepare analyses and materials to support internal discussions on potential acquisitions.

- Support outreach to founders, business owners, and intermediaries, and keep the M&A pipeline up to date.

Key Requirements

More than previous experience, we are looking for driven, intellectually curious people with strong analytical skills, initiative, and a genuine desire to learn.

- Senior-year student or recent graduate in Business, Industrial Engineering, Economics, Finance, or a related field.

- Strong interest in M&A, corporate development, investment banking, private equity, or strategy.

- Strong analytical skills and ability to work with financial and operational data.

- Intermediate to advanced proficiency in Excel.

- Clear, structured written and verbal communication.

- Advanced professional English, written and spoken (the interview process will be conducted in English).

- High level of ownership, resourcefulness, and attention to detail.

- Collaborative, professional, and comfortable working remotely in a dynamic environment.

Previous experience in investment banking, private equity, or corporate development is helpful but not required.

Solen-isms (How We Operate)

- Ownership Mindset: We own the mission. We don't wait to be told. We lead, fix, and build as if it were ours. When problems arise, we run toward them, not away.
- Benchmark to Best: We seek out excellence. We measure ourselves against the best and adapt quickly, always looking for the edge that moves us forward.
- Openly Self-Critical: Leaders go first: they surface their misses early, ask for direct feedback, and turn “game film” into better decisions and better systems.
- Disagree & Commit: Leaders disagree openly and constructively, regardless of title or tenure, because truth is how we avoid bureaucracy and benchmark to best.
- Figureitoutiveness: Embracing challenges, fostering growth, and taking initiative, leaders thrive on hard work and high failure tolerance.
- Mutual Elevation: Committed to growth, elevating teams, developing future leaders, and removing barriers to mastery and joy.
- Learn-it-alls: Learn-it-alls, not know-it-alls, embracing failure as part of growth and progress.
- Pioneering: Pioneering driven by opportunity, using first principles thinking and unbound by tradition or rules.
- Will to Win: Leaders relentlessly pursue potential, reject mediocrity, and get what they tolerate.
- Dialectical: We learn through conversation. We ask, listen, question, and evolve — valuing disagreement as a tool for alignment and deeper understanding.
- Frugality: Achieving more with less, focusing on quality, long-term value, and company-wide responsibility.
- Candor: We communicate with integrity, transparency, and respect in all conversations.
- Kaizen: Kaizen is continuous improvement as a way of life. Leaders make hundreds of small upgrades that compound, turning lessons into standards and standards into durable systems.
