Senior Applied AI Engineer (m/f/d)

Job description

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. As our Senior Applied AI Engineer (m/f/d), you'll build the agentic workflows that run our solution delivery behind the scenes. Every customer project produces requirements, designs, plans, and checks on the way from a customer's problem to a robot running on their factory floor. Your agents will work at each of these steps: reviewing requirements before they become commitments, checking and improving artifacts as the project moves, and catching risks while there's still time to act on them. You'll build the first agentic workflows, the reusable components and governance they run on, and much of how RobCo uses AI internally. Your Responsibilities Design, build, and run agentic workflows across our delivery process - requirements review, automated checks and gates, early risk detection, and a knowledge base that makes everything we've learned from past projects available to agents and people - owning each from concept through production. Build the way we build: reusable components, skills, and patterns for tool integrations, feedback loops, and identity, secret, and auth management. You know the agentic toolbox inside out and decide what we actually need and what we don't. Own quality end to end: design and run evals, monitor agents in production, and manage observability, cost, guardrails, and security so teams can trust what the agents produce. Design human-in-the-loop workflows that learn: people review and correct agent output at defined checkpoints, and those corrections flow back into better prompts, evals, and components, so the agents keep improving. Embed with our delivery teams to understand how their work actually flows, identify where agents create the most leverage, and define together what good looks like. Drive adoption and help shape how RobCo uses AI internally: deliver agents through the tools teams already use every day, establish best practices, and build paved paths so teams can eventually create their own agents. We're looking for someone who has: Several years of software engineering experience and the seniorit…
