We are looking for a hands-on Operations & Production Engineer to join our team and actively contribute to scaling our manufacturing processes and managing our supply chain. We're a young and dynamic team, and your role will be broad and impactful – from setting up production lines and qualifying suppliers to implementing quality control and managing logistics.

If you're looking for variety, ownership, and a team where your work makes a difference, this is for you

As an ideal candidate, you will be highly motivated, eager to work on a challenging deep-tech topic with real-world impact, capable of working autonomously and in small teams, and have a strong desire to build robust and scalable production systems.

Responsibilities

  • Develop, document, and optimize assembly processes for our robotic systems.
  • Manage the supply chain, including sourcing components, qualifying new suppliers, and overseeing procurement.
  • Implement and oversee quality control measures throughout the production process.
  • Create and maintain production documentation, including bills of materials (BOMs) and work instructions.
  • Manage inventory, logistics, and planning for small- to medium-scale production runs.
  • Collaborate with the engineering team to provide feedback for design for manufacturability (DFM).

Requirements & Qualifications

  • Experience in the robotics, automation, or mechatronics industry.
  • Knowledge of quality control methodologies (e.g., Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing).
  • Hands-on technical skills and experience with assembling hardware.
  • Experience working in a startup environment.

Great to have

  • Strong motivation and goal-oriented working attitude.
  • Comfortable working independently and in small teams, and willing to take responsibility.
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Industrial, Mechanical, Production Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Experience in a manufacturing, production, or operations role for complex hardware.
  • Experience with supply chain management, sourcing, and supplier interaction.
  • A structured and detail-oriented approach to process and documentation.
  • Fluent English speaker; German is a strong plus.

What we offer

  • Direct collaboration with the founders and the chance to actively shape our product and company.
  • Opportunity to grow into a core role in an early-stage robotics startup.
  • Competitive compensation package.
  • Exposure to real-world deployments and pilot customers.
  • A team culture focused on technical excellence, openness, and shared ownership.
  • Regular joint team activities including team dinners and surprise events.
