Requirements
• 10+ years of experience in automation engineering, robotics, special-purpose machinery, or industrial system design — including real-world build and commissioning exposure. • Proven experience designing complete automation cells. • Deep understanding of industrial robotics and automation components (robots, grippers, vision systems, conveyors, pneumatics, safety concepts, etc.). • Strong technical judgment and the ability to assess feasibility, risk, and design quality with confidence. • Experience reviewing, improving, and standardizing technical work across teams. • The ability to explain complex automation topics clearly and constructively — both in design reviews and customer-facing discussions. • A mindset focused on quality, robustness, and scalability. • Fluent German (required) and professional English skills.
Responsibilities
• Design flagship automation concepts: Own complex, high-impact automation concepts from the first customer requirements through a complete concept package: 3D cell design, robot + peripheral selection, supplier input, cycle time and throughput assumptions, budget/effort estimation, and risk assessment • Set technical standards: Define and evolve best practices for automation concepts, including 3D design expectations, component/supplier selection logic, cost and effort estimation approach and risk assessment methodology • Own reference concepts: Build and maintain gold-standard reference cells and reusable concept modules (layouts, peripherals, interfaces) that serve as benchmarks and accelerate future concepts. • Review & challenge concepts: Review concepts from other engineers, especially for complex or high-value deals, and actively challenge weak assumptions, risky designs, or insufficient technical depth. • Drive methodology improvements: Continuously improve how RobCo approaches feasibility analysis, automation design, and technical evaluation. • Enable the team technically: Run design reviews, technical deep-dives, and internal workshops; coach Concept Engineers through hands-on feedback and real examples.
Benefits
• Develop modular, software-defined robotics solutions with us that set new standards in automation. • Help us build robots equipped with state-of-the-art AI that perceive their environment, analyze data, and make intelligent decisions in real time. • As part of a very dynamic and fast-growing scale-up, you will take on responsibility from day one, drive your own projects, and see the direct impact of your work. • Flat hierarchies, open communication, and regular 360° feedback enable fast decisions and support your professional and personal development. • Work out across Germany in over 7,200 studios with our subsidized Wellpass membership. • Flexible working hours, a modern office, and—depending on the role—the option to work from home. • Regular team events—from relaxed beer & pizza nights on the rooftop terrace to shared experiences on ski trips or at Oktoberfest.
