The posting

To drive our growth strategy in the dynamic market of autonomous robotic systems in defense we’re looking for a Technical Program Manager who will be responsible for the delivery of customer program deliverables to include hardware, software, and all product demonstrations. In this position you will have a significant contribution to the growth of the company. You will manage a portfolio of projects and will be accountable for delivering customer projects on-time, in-cost and to full customer satisfaction. This requires a holistic approach to project management covering all major disciplines tailored to the respective project sizes. In this role you will be customer facing and lead internal, cross-organizational project teams.

Responsibilities and Duties

  • Lead the execution of customer programs for autonomous robotic systems, taking ownership from initial planning through integration, delivery and deployment.
  • Drive engineering teams towards clear milestones and deadlines, aligning priorities, managing dependencies and removing blockers to keep delivery on track.
  • Lead through influence rather than hierarchy, building trust with engineers, customers and cross-functional stakeholders to maintain momentum and achieve shared outcomes.
  • Manage customer expectations through clear communication, realistic commitments and proactive resolution of technical or delivery challenges.
  • Work closely with engineering, hardware, manufacturing and operations teams to translate customer requirements into practical execution plans and delivered capabilities.
  • Make pragmatic decisions in a fast-moving environment, balancing technical trade-offs, delivery timelines and customer needs without waiting for perfect information or established processes.
  • Own program plans, schedules, budgets, risks and delivery outcomes, introducing the structure needed to support execution without creating unnecessary bureaucracy.
  • Support customer proposals and contribute insights from program execution to product development and technology roadmaps.
  • Coordinate hardware deliveries, integration activities, field trials and system deployments, ensuring a smooth transition from development to operational use.

Qualifications and Skills

  • 5+ years of experience in engineering, technical project management or program management, including experience in a startup or scale-up environment.
  • Demonstrated ownership of complex technical projects or product delivery, with the ability to drive execution from planning through to customer delivery.
  • Experience leading or coordinating engineers against deadlines, resolving competing priorities and maintaining accountability across technical teams.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build trust, influence decisions and manage challenging customer and stakeholder relationships.
  • Technical fluency in complex hardware/software systems, with the confidence to engage directly with engineers, understand technical trade-offs and challenge estimates constructively.
  • A pragmatic, hands-on approach to problem-solving, comfortable making decisions with incomplete information and building lightweight processes where needed.
  • Experience in robotics, embedded systems, automotive, aerospace or another complex engineering environment is advantageous.
  • An engineering background, particularly in embedded software, systems engineering or a related discipline, is highly desirable.
  • Fluent in German and English.
  • German or EU citizenship is required for the position.

Benefits

  • Flexible working hours
  • Stock Options
  • Generous holiday allowance
  • Pension plan
  • Extended social security package
  • Enhanced maternity & paternity leave
  • Wellpass membership

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
