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:

In this key role, you will be responsible for strategic planning in close cooperation with the founders, manage central, cross-functional projects and ensure operational efficiency. You act as a link between the departments, support the development and maintenance of important stakeholder relationships and actively contribute to shaping the corporate culture and team development.

Qualifications:

Our interview plan:

  • Take‑home assignment: You’ll complete a short, role‑relevant task with clear instructions and a deadline.

  • Interview with CEO (30–45 min): A discussion on vision, impact, and how the role connects to company priorities.

  • On‑site visit: Meet the team at our office and collaborate on a real challenge similar to the work you’d do here. You’ll get a clear feel for the environment and ways of working.

  • External interview: Speak with an external partner or advisor for an independent perspective on your skills and fit.

What We Offer:
  • Wellpass (gym membership)

  • Flexible working hours

  • Direct collaboration with interdisciplinary teams.
