WHO WE ARE
We build the intelligence that lets robots sense, reason, and act in the real world—moving beyond the lab and into everyday industrial settings like warehouses and factories. Our technology closes the automation gaps that traditional systems can't solve. We are on a mission to redefine how physical work gets done, and we're looking for curious, bold thinkers to help shape the future of robotics with us.
OVERVIEW
We are looking for a motivated Robotics Project Manager who wants to grow into delivering robotics projects end to end. Working closely with our senior project managers, you will coordinate cross-functional teams, track timelines and budgets, and help integrate our robotic solutions at customer sites. You bring a technical background in robotics or automation, first experience in project work, and the ownership and curiosity to take on more responsibility quickly in a fast-paced environment.

- Primary point of contact between clients during the full project lifecycle of robotics deployments, from planning and feasibility through execution and post-launch support, and own work packages and smaller projects yourself.
- Help define project scope, objectives and deliverables together with stakeholders and senior PMs.
- Create and maintain project timelines, resource plans and budget tracking.
- Coordinate day to day with engineering, software and operations teams.
- Identify risks and delays early, escalate them, and help mitigate them, including on safety and compliance.
- Act as the day-to-day contact for customers on site and in regular syncs.
- Track project progress and prepare regular status reports.
- Coordinate with vendors and suppliers on delivery of components and services.
- Take part in technical design reviews and contribute ideas for solutions.
- Support procurement with technical specifications.
- Willing to travel (30-50%) to locations in Europe and occasionally to international sites.
QUALIFICATIONS
- Taking ownership, Structured and hands-on
- 1–3 years of experience in project management or engineering in robotics, automation or industrial engineering. Internships, working-student roles or commissioning experience count.

- Familiar with project management methods and tools.
- Fluent in English, written and spoken.
NICE TO HAVE
- Experience with AI-based robotics solutions.
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Robotics, Mechanical/Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
- German at B2 level or higher.
- Basic knowledge of regulatory requirements for robotic systems.
- Familiarity with Python, C++ or ROS.
- Hands-on experience at customer sites (commissioning, installation, on-site support).
