About the Position

Solution Engineer (gn)

Company: Wandelbots GmbH

Your Mission

At Wandelbots, we aim to make building robotic applications radically easier. With our software platform, Wandelbots NOVA, automation engineers, system integrators, and developers can program, simulate, and run industrial robots across various brands.

As a Solution Engineer, you will bring NOVA to life in real customer applications. You will work hands-on in projects delivered by our own team and guide customers and partners who build their own solutions with NOVA. You will enable them to become successful and independent with our product and bring what you learn in the field back to our product and engineering teams.

What You Do

Customer Projects (Wandelbots-delivered)

You will be part of our project teams: you will help design, implement, and commission robotic applications built on NOVA, from simulation to the real cell.
You will know these projects inside out and become the technical point of contact for the customer after go-live, including support and further development.

Customer & Partner Projects

You will accompany projects that customers and integration partners implement themselves, as their technical sparring partner.
You will review solution architectures, help with tricky technical questions, and unblock teams on site or remotely.

Enablement

You will run trainings, workshops, and onboarding sessions for customers and partners.
You will build example applications, templates, and best practices, and contribute to our documentation.

Product Feedback

You will translate insights from the field into concrete product improvements together with Product and Engineering.
You will help diagnose and resolve technical issues around NOVA, its SDKs, and APIs.

Requirements

Several years of experience as an automation, robotics, or application engineer, ideally in customer-facing projects.
Hands-on experience with industrial robots (e.g., KUKA, ABB, FANUC, Universal Robots, Yaskawa) and knowledge of typical applications such as handling, palletizing, or machine tending.
Comfortable writing code, ideally in Python.
Understanding of industrial networks and communication (TCP/IP, PROFINET/EtherNet/IP, OPC UA) and ability to get a robot cell connected.
Curious about AI and use it in your daily work, e.g., for development or for robotic applications.
Ability to explain technical concepts clearly and enjoy teaching others.
Confident and empathetic communication with customers and partners.
Fluent in German (C1 or higher) and English, written and spoken.
Hold a driving license and be open to regular travel to customer sites.
Based in Dresden, or willing to move or commute to spend about 2/3 of your time at our Dresden shopfloor, especially during the first 6 months.

Nice to Have

Experience with simulation, especially NVIDIA Omniverse / Isaac Sim.
Experience with TypeScript, C++, containers (Docker/Kubernetes), GitLab, or GitHub.
Experience with ROS.
Experience working for a system integrator or in a technical consulting or presales role.
Experience with machine vision or AI-based robotic applications.

We Offer

Work on an innovative, deep tech product that adds value to the robotics world and to society.
Collaborate with great people on our international teams who value knowledge sharing and unique ways of doing things.
Work in a value-driven environment where everything may not be perfect, but we're working on it.
Up to 3 days of volunteer time off to help your favorite charity.
Training and mental health opportunities for both mental and professional development.
Free lunch, snacks, and drinks, team events, 30 days of annual vacation + additional rest during the Christmas season until New Year.
100% of your usual earnings will be paid while you take care of your sick child.
