About the Role at RobCo
At RobCo, we don’t just build robots, we are redefining the relationship between hardware and AI. Our end-to-end solutions seamlessly combine advanced, scalable industrial hardware with a central software suite powered by Physical AI to make manufacturing truly autonomous, efficient, and scalable. By delivering field-ready robotic solutions that just work, we empower industrial companies to automate without complexity and successfully solve the global labor shortage.
With locations in Munich and Austin, and backed by leading global investors such as Lightspeed, Lingotto Innovation, and Sequoia, we are redefining Autonomous Industrial Robotics.
To further expand our team, we are looking for you as (Senior) Field Solutions Manager (m/f/d) with the following mission:
You will play a pivotal role in scaling and professionalizing our customer delivery operation. Your team delivers and supports some of the most advanced modular robotics solutions.
Your Mission
Build and maintain a high-performing, reliable, and motivated field organization that sets the industry benchmark for quality, customer orientation, and operational excellence.
You will lead, coach, and develop a diverse team of engineers and technicians, from recent graduates to seasoned experts, ensuring they consistently deliver value to our customers and embody the best of RobCo’s culture. You’ll bring structure where it’s missing, raise the bar on process and communication, and create the conditions for the team to grow.
You will be the first line leader, operational problem-solver, and force multiplier in our fast-growing organization, trusted by both your team and company leadership.
Your Responsibilities
We're looking for someone who has:
Demonstrated leadership experience in a technical, customer-facing environment (e.g., machinery, automation, industrial engineering, or similar).
Proven ability to develop and lead diverse teams, including engineers and technicians, ideally in a fast-pace scale-up or transformation context.
Strong operational and problem-solving mindset: you see around corners, act proactively, and thrive in high-change environments.
Ability to structure, document, and drive repeatable processes without sacrificing flexibility or customer focus.
Exceptional communication skills (in English, German is a plus): you coach technical staff to be clear, pragmatic, and customer-oriented.
Relentless about safety, quality, and professionalism.
Willingness to travel as needed to support customers and team members on site.
Why join RobCo?
Develop modular, software-defined robotics solutions with us that set new standards in automation.
Help us build robots equipped with state-of-the-art AI that perceive their environment, analyze data, and make intelligent decisions in real time.
As part of a very dynamic and fast-growing scale-up, you will take on responsibility from day one, drive your own projects, and see the direct impact of your work.
Flat hierarchies, open communication, and regular 360° feedback enable fast decisions and support your professional and personal development.
Work out across Germany in over 7,200 studios with our subsidized Wellpass membership.
Flexible working hours, a modern office, and—depending on the role—the option to work from home.
Regular team events—from relaxed beer & pizza nights on the rooftop terrace to shared experiences on ski trips or at Oktoberfest.
