NEURA Robotics is seeking a Head of Robotic AI Applications to lead the deployment and integration of AI-powered robotic systems for customer projects. This is a full-time, in-office role based in Riederich, Germany.
In this position, you will build and lead a team of Robotic AI Application Engineers responsible for deploying NEURA's products across customer engagements. You'll own end-to-end delivery of complex customer projects, from feasibility assessment and planning through on-site integration and final acceptance. You'll serve as the senior technical escalation point for challenging projects, ensuring technical, timeline, and quality expectations are consistently met.
Key responsibilities include:
- Recruiting, leading, and growing a high-performing team of AI application engineers
- Managing full project lifecycle ownership for customer deployments
- Establishing scalable processes, tooling, and quality standards for deployment and customer handover
- Prioritizing and allocating resources across multiple concurrent customer engagements
- Partnering with Product Management and R&D to translate field insights into product improvements
- Leading customer-facing meetings and strategic discussions to build long-term relationships
- Mentoring team members and fostering a culture of ownership and reliability
You should have a Master's or PhD in Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, AI, or related field (or equivalent practical experience). Several years of hands-on experience deploying robotic or AI systems in customer/field environments is essential, ideally with project or delivery ownership. Proven leadership experience managing technical teams in customer-facing contexts is required. You must be comfortable managing complex projects from planning through go-live, working directly with senior customers, and traveling as needed.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills are critical. Professional English proficiency is required; German language skills are a plus.
NEURA Robotics offers a dynamic work culture with flat hierarchies, flexible hours, 30 vacation days, competitive compensation, professional development support, and an international team of experts focused on redefining robot assistants.
