Your mission & challenges

As an experienced and software‑oriented Production Team Lead, you will play a key role in building and leading our team while further developing production processes related to the commissioning of humanoid robotic systems.

Your Goal:

To reliably commission humanoid robots in production as software‑based mechatronic systems in close collaboration with software, electronics, and hardware development — ensuring stable, safe, and fully functional robot performance for our customers.

Your main tasks include:

• Build and professionally lead your team while continuously developing its capabilities.
• Optimize workflows and working methods within your area of responsibility to ensure smooth commissioning processes and sustainably increase quality, safety, efficiency, and productivity.
• Manage capacity and resource planning as well as the qualification and further development of employees.
• Collect, analyze, and evaluate relevant KPIs, derive improvement measures, and drive their implementation together with the involved departments.
• Further develop functional testing and diagnostic concepts for humanoid robotic systems in collaboration with specialist departments to ensure release processes and traceability of hardware and software configurations during commissioning.
• Take ownership of technical escalation management whenever functionality, safety, or configuration issues arise.

Qualifications

• A completed Master’s degree in Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, or Software Engineering.
• Professional and leadership experience in the production of software‑based mechatronic systems — ideally in a near‑high‑volume production environment.
• Strong understanding of manufacturing and testing processes (ERP, LEAN, continuous improvement) as well as the interaction between hardware and software configurations.
• Experience in functional safety, testing procedures, and systematic diagnostic processes.
• A structured, quality‑focused, and solution‑oriented way of working — including close collaboration with software and electronics development — as well as high tolerance for ambiguity in complex project environments.
