WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

As Technical Project Manager you will own the full delivery of one or more customer projects within our Synapticon Intelligence service business — from initial scoping through integration, safety certification and handover. You report directly to the Head of Synapticon Intelligence and work within a multidisciplinary scrum team alongside other PMs and specialists across hardware, software, functional safety and systems engineering.

HERE'S WHERE YOU MAKE AN IMPACT

Own end-to-end project delivery: scope, schedule, budget, milestones, risk, and customer sign-off
Serve as the primary point of contact for EU and US customers — calls, written communication, deliverables review, payment coordination
Coordinate with suppliers and third-party service providers (hardware, certification bodies incl. TÜV, external engineering)
Navigate a matrix organisation: drive execution through a shared scrum team without direct line authority over engineers
Track and communicate project status across all stakeholders — internally, externally, and at management level
Support commercial aspects: scope changes, time & material tracking, invoicing triggers
Travel to customer sites in Europe and the US as needed

WHO YOU ARE

5+ years of hands-on robotics experience — you've built AMRs, humanoids, or similarly complex mechatronic systems
Deep familiarity with robotics system integration: actuators, drives, sensors, middleware (ROS/ROS2 a strong plus)
Solid understanding of functional safety (ISO 13849, IEC 62061, FSoE) and what it takes to get a safety-rated system through certification
3+ years of project management experience, ideally in a customer-facing technical services or product engineering context
Experience managing suppliers, external contractors, and cross-functional development teams
Clear, confident communicator — able to translate between customer requirements and engineering constraints
Fluent in German and English (both written and spoken); other languages a plus
Comfortable with ambiguity and comfortable pushing for clarity when needed

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

A warm, international team that truly enjoys working together
Plenty of creative freedom and the opportunity to make a real impact
Flexible working hours and hybrid work options
Short decision-making paths, flat hierarchies, and open communication

A company-sponsored health program (WLP app, regular physical activities, nutritional coaching, and more)
Job bike program to support a healthy commute (optional)
Birthday vouchers
Snacks and fresh fruit for all employees, plus breakfast every Monday
Free drinks and coffee, of course
Regular global team-building events such as bootcamps, ski trips, and summer BBQs — spouses and children are warmly invited to Friday BBQ events
Modern office spaces
