You are a hybrid Project Manager / Senior Application Engineer who owns customer projects end-to-end—from PoC to installation, commissioning, and acceptance. You’ll plan, coordinate, and track cross-functional work, organize and structure the Application Team, while contributing hands‑on to simulations, path planning, bring‑up, testing, and customer enablement.
Location: Germany, Munich area (or willing to relocate) - hybrid with regular on‑site customer visits
Travel: 40-60% (DACH/EU), depending on project phase
About Eleven Dynamics
Eleven Dynamics builds cutting‑edge automation for smart factories, with a strong focus on metrology automation . Our Automation Suite (EDAS) integrates sensors, robots/cobots, motion, and analysis into one seamless system—enabling digital twin planning, assisted path generation, safe collision‑aware motion, and inline analysis at scale. We’re pragmatic, collaborative, and we ship.
Responsibilities
- Project Ownership & Structure: Build a clear plan and structured delivery framework (scope, WBS, schedule, risks, RAID log, quality gates) from PoC to FAT/SAT and final acceptance.
- Organize & Guide Engineers: Allocate tasks, set priorities, run stand‑ups, and provide methodical guidance; unblock issues and ensure consistent execution—while personally delivering key technical work.
- Customer Management: Act as single point of contact; capture requirements, define acceptance criteria/DoD, manage changes, and provide crisp status, decisions, and next steps.
- POCs & Simulations: Design structured PoC plans with measurable outcomes; model cells, validate cycle time, run collision checks; iterate quickly to de‑risk.
- Installation & Commissioning: Lead on‑site bring‑up (paths, calibration, safety); execute documented test plans/MSA, collect evidence, and secure sign‑off.
- Quality & Testing: Define verification strategy (unit/integration/functional/on‑site), track defects/escapes, and coordinate hotfixes with Dev/Hotline.
- Documentation & Training: Produce concise, well‑structured reports (KPIs, risks, results, media), operator docs, training, and service handover packs.
- Continuous Improvement: Standardize templates, checklists, SOPs, and lessons learned; grow a reusable library (simulations, test scripts, report blocks).
- Success metrics: On‑time/on‑budget delivery, POC conversion, first‑time‑right acceptance, defect escape rate, CSAT/NPS, and reuse of standards/assets.
Requirements
- Experience: 5–8+ years delivering industrial automation/robotics/metrology projects, including customer‑facing ownership.
- Structured Working Style: Demonstrated ability to bring structure to ambiguity—create WBS, milestones, checklists, and clear owner/ETA for every task; maintain RAID logs and decision records.
- Leadership: Proven capability to organize, coordinate, and guide cross‑functional engineers on projects (without heavy line management), provide methodical direction, and uphold standards.
- Technical Depth: Installation & commissioning of robots/cobots, sensors, PLCs, motion/kinematics, safety; strong with digital twin/simulation and collision checks.
- Project Management: Scheduling/critical path, risk & change control, stakeholder comms; comfortable with agile cadences and classic gates (FAT/SAT).
- Communication: Clear and concise with shopfloor and management; excellent German & English ; strong written reporting with evidence.
- Nice to Have: Metrology & MSA, automotive/VDA, scripting (e.g., Python) for automation/reporting; familiarity with inline analysis & distributed tools.
- Location: Based in Germany ; Munich area (or willing to relocate).
- Ownership & Impact: real autonomy, and visible influence on a core customer‑facing function.
- Attractive Compensation: Competitive salary with performance upside.
- Flexible Work: Hybrid setup, flexible schedules, trust‑based culture.
- Health & Wellbeing: We support your health with Wellpass and training options in the office.
- Team Community: Great team spirit and legendary team gatherings —we build together and celebrate together.
- Growth: Work with cutting‑edge metrology automation, continuous learning, and a clear path to expand the Application team.
