Job description

Mission
The Advanced Robotic Systems Lead drives the strategic development and deployment of next-generation robotic technologies-such as humanoids, intelligent AMRs, and multi-mobile robotic ecosystems-to enhance operational excellence, product quality, and workplace safety across industrial environments. The role ensures that robotics becomes a competitive advantage, accelerating the company's transition toward Industry 5.0.
Core Leadership Responsibilities:
  • Technology Vision & Roadmap
    Define and steer the company's robotics innovation strategy, identifying disruptive solutions (AI-enabled robotics, advanced vision systems, intelligent sensing) and translating them into scalable industrial applications.
  • End-to-End Program Leadership
    Oversee the full lifecycle of advanced robotics initiatives-from concept and simulation to industrial deployment-ensuring alignment with business priorities and maximizing ROI.
  • Operational Performance & Productivity
    Guarantee performance excellence of robotic systems, leveraging KPI-driven governance (efficiency, cycle time, system uptime) to improve throughput and reduce operational losses.
  • Regulatory Compliance & Safety Governance
    Ensure all robotic applications comply with international safety standards (e.g., ISO 10218, Machinery Directive), establishing a robust risk-management and safety framework.
  • High-Performing Team Leadership
    Build, mentor, and empower a multidisciplinary technical organization (robotics engineers, automation experts, PLC/robot programmers), fostering a culture of innovation and continuous improvement.
  • Digital Integration & Industry 5.0 Enablement
    Guide the convergence of robotics with enterprise IT/OT architectures, enabling data-driven operations, autonomous decision-making, and collaborative human-robot work environments.

Executive Competencies:
  • Strategic Foresight: Ability to detect emerging trends in robotics and translate them into competitive advantage.
  • Innovation Leadership: Proven track record in introducing frontier technologies into complex industrial settings.
  • Cross-Functional Influence: Skilled in aligning engineering, operations, IT, and safety organizations toward shared transformation goals.
  • Decision-Making Under Complexity: Comfortable managing high-impact, multi-site, technology-intensive programs.
  • Change Management: Ability to lead organizational transformation linked to automation and advanced robotics adoption.

Basic Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related engineering field
  • Minimum 8 years of experience in robotics, automation, or advanced manufacturing systems (automotive or industrial environment preferred)
  • Experience leading a team and managing direct employees.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Master's or PhD in Robotics, Automation, Artificial Intelligence, or related field
  • Knowledge of automotive manufacturing processes and plant operations
  • Experience in:
    • Vision systems and perception (AI/ML applied to robotics)
    • Human-robot collaboration (cobotics)
    • Experience with robot simulation, digital twins, or virtual commissioning tools

Key Skills:
  • Strong ability to translate innovation into deployable industrial solutions
  • Expertise in end-to-end project lifecycle (concept → pilot → industrialization → deployment)
  • Leadership & stakeholder management across engineering, manufacturing, and suppliers
  • Advanced analytical, synthesis, and problem-solving capabilities
  • Agile mindset with experience in fast-paced innovation environments
  • Familiarity with Functional Safety (ISO 10218 / ISO 13849 / ISO 26262)
  • Fluent English
