Operations Lead Munich

Were building a large-scale physical digital operation where coordinated fleets of robots interact with engineered setups to produce the data required to unlock the next generation of intelligent systems.

This is an environment where precision matters reliability is engineered and iteration moves at the speed of learning.

Were searching for an Operations Lead who has the discipline of an engineer the instincts of a builder and the calm needed to run complex systems under real-world constraints. You will keep a multi-robot operation running end to end: stable performant and continuously improving. If you take pride in building systems that work at scale - and stay working - youll thrive here.

This role combines operations hands-on engineering process design and procurement. You will own the objects fixtures and setups that enable our data workflows and youll refine these systems into something robust elegant and ready for scale.

Tasks

What Youll Own

• Drive high-throughput performance across our physical systems: uptime maintenance consumables scheduling and operational cadence.
• Recruit train and lead our on-site operators and student workforce with clarity and technical rigor.
• Own the full lifecycle of our data-use cases: selecting objects preparing them tracking them and integrating them into consistent reproducible workflows.
• Build and maintain the physical tooling that enables these workflows (fixtures mounts custom adapters mechanical components).
• Contribute as a hands-on hardware engineer when needed - designing or modifying end-effectors brackets adapters and prototype parts.
• Troubleshoot hardware software issues end to end and collaborate closely with engineering for deeper fixes.
• Own procurement inventory vendor relationships and all logistics for equipment and materials.
• Architect and continuously improve workflows QA layers safety protocols and scaling mechanisms.
• Build processes that expand gracefully - from small pilot setups to large facilities and multi-robot fleets.
• Maintain a facility that reflects engineering excellence: structured safe orderly and inspection-ready.

Requirements

Youre a Fit If You

• Take pride in making physical systems behave predictably under real constraints.
• Have the intuition to modify hardware test components and create simple fixtures or end-effectors with confidence.
• Understand the interplay between hardware and software and can diagnose issues across both.
• Have operated in labs manufacturing environments robotics facilities or other settings where throughput quality and reliability matter.
• Treat organization and process design as engineering disciplines - SOPs labeling systems dashboards and feedback loops.
• Lead operators with calm authority fairness and a builders instinct for clarity.
• Manage procurement and logistics with precision and cost awareness.
• Communicate clearly act ethically and move with urgency when needed.
• Want to build foundational infrastructure - something that will not exist unless you help create it.

Why It Matters

Scaling robots requires more than algorithms. It demands engineered environments reliable hardware repeatable workflows and operations that hold up under load.

Your work will define the stability throughput and technical credibility of a system that underpins everything we build. This is a role where excellence compounds - and where the fingerprints you leave will be visible for years.
