sensmore is a Berlin/Potsdam-based robotics startup delivering production-proven automation for industries where the world’s raw materials are extracted, moved, and processed. Its automation system transforms heavy machines into intelligent, automated robots powered by Physical AI and vertically integrates them into the full production environment: from the machine and safety infrastructure to network infrastructure, site processes, and operational interfaces. Co-developed with customers, sensmore is backed by Point Nine Capital, leading industry investors, the State of Brandenburg, and the European Union. Role Overview: We are looking for a hands-on Founder's Associate to work directly with our two founders in Berlin. This role suits someone with a technical background who has already run complex projects to a deadline in a genuinely demanding environment - ideally 1–3 years at a top-tier strategy consultancy in Germany (Bain, McKinsey, BCG or similar), where managing multiple workstreams, stakeholders, and shifting priorities at once was the daily standard. The core of the job is scoping and managing complex projects and keeping internal and external alignment in check, working side by side with both founders. You should be technical enough to earn credibility with our engineering team. Responsibilities: Scope and run high-priority projects end to end on behalf of the founders (defining the plan, driving delivery, and reporting on progress) across customer pilots, field deployments, internal tooling, and process automation. Keep internal and external alignment in check: make sure engineering, commercial, and operations are working to the same plan, and that customers, partners, and suppliers know where things stand. Hold several complex workstreams in parallel, with the structure, pace, and stakeholder management expected in a consulting environment, and keep them all moving when priorities change mid-week. Prepare material for investors, grant programmes, and customers, and work closely with both founders on whatever is most critical that week. Qualifications: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a closely related technical field. 1–3 years of project management experience in a high-demand, delivery-focused environment: top-tier management consulting in the German market strongly preferred. You should be able to point to specific projects you scoped and owned, the stakeholders you managed, and the deadlines you hit. Proven ability to structure ambiguous problems into a plan and deliver against it under time pressure, without a project manager above you. Business-fluent German (native or near-native preferred) and an interest in customers in mining, construction, or heavy industry. Able to ship working software with AI coding tools such as Claude Code or Cursor – scripts, prototypes, and automations – with enough Python and SQL to review, debug, and trust what comes out. Valid category B driving licence, and the willingness to drive to customer sites, transport equipment, and move machines and hardware. Based in Berlin (or willing to relocate), happy to work on-site, and comfortable spending time in a workshop and around heavy machinery in operation. Preferred Skills: Experience managing projects with German industrial, mining, or construction clients. Exposure to robotics, autonomous systems, machine learning, or industrial hardware.
