Who should you write to at RobCo?

Your free dossier identifies the people who'd interview you — their background, what they value, and how to reach out so you stand out before applying.

About the Role at RobCo RobCo is building the category of Autonomous Industrial Robotics and we're doing it fast. We believe that automating the ordinary frees humans to do the extraordinary, and we're building the end-to-end robotics infrastructure to make that possible - hardware, software, and AI in one stack that just works. At RobCo, we automate the ordinary, so humans can do the extraordinary. To achieve this, we are looking for an ambitious Founders Associate (m/f/d) to help us establish RobCo as leading provider of automation solutions. As our Founders Associate, you work side by side with Roman, our CEO and co-founder, and report directly to him. You take the topics highest on his agenda and see them through, working across whichever teams and sites they touch: a critical customer meeting, a board presentation, a new market we are entering, a partner initiative, a process that needs rebuilding as we scale. Expect several of them in parallel, and expect them to arrive before they have a team. This role is a springboard, one of the best places in the company to learn a lot in a short time and grow into a strong operator. Within 18 to 24 months you will know RobCo deeply, commercially, operationally and technically, and that will open strong opportunities across the company as we grow. The target start date for this role is September 2026. Responsibilities Execute the CEO's top projects and initiatives. Take the two or three most critical ones and deliver them end to end: understand what is really going on, turn his direction into a concrete plan, bring the right people together, and stay on it until it works. Prepare and support critical investor, customer and leadership sessions and follow up on what was agreed. Turn initiatives into progress on the ground. With the teams, at customer sites, and in our production environments. Run several workstreams at once. Deciding where your attention goes each day is part of the job. Step in when something slows down. Get involved early, find the actual bottleneck, and clear it with the owners. Make what you solve stick. Clear workstreams, named owners, a working rhythm, honest progress tracking, early warning when something is at risk - plus the KPIs, dashboards and playbooks that keep the same topic from coming back in six months. We're looking for someone who has: 2 to 5 years in a fast-paced environment - Investment banking, VC/PE, top-tier consulting, or an operating role in a well funded startup (Founders Associate, BizOps, Chief of Staff, GTM Ops). A degree in Business Administration, Economics, Engineering, or comparable experience. A clear bias for action: you prefer a good decision today over a perfect one next month, you commit once a direction is set, and you close the loop without being reminded. Structure in ambiguity: you can take a loosely defined problem, break it down, and come back within days with a plan and the first step already done. The ability to move people across teams without formal authority, through preparation, reliability, follow-through, and credibility with senior stakeholders. A strong analytical toolkit and an AI-native way of working: advanced Excel and Sheets, confidence handling data yourself, and fluency with tools like Notion, Claude and Google Workspace. Strong storylining, slide writing and communication skills to get your message across. Willingness to work fully onsite at our Munich office and to travel regularly to customer sites and to our US locations in Austin and San Francisco. Being close to the team, to Roman and to our production environments matters in this role. Very good English skills are required, German is a plus. 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 scal
