Jobbeschreibung

The appliedAI Initiative elevates Europe’s industry to become shapers in the age of AI, creating a future that we desire to live in. Through our ecosystem of strong partners, comprehensive programs, services and solutions we advance companies holistically on their AI journey. With our uniquely diverse, interdisciplinary, and driven team, we build on deep technical expertise while specializing on applicability of the solutions. We share a mindset of collaboration and openness with our ecosystem of leading companies and tech players. Our common goal is to strengthen the European landscape, jointly creating unique knowledge for applying trustworthy AI. We believe that AI Agents will be the dominant topic for AI in the near future and that appliedAI with its partner ecosystem will impact how this technology is being used in industry and beyond in Europe.

As part of appliedAI’s Strategy & Transformation team, you’ll get hands‑on exposure to how established companies and larger “Mittelstand” organizations build and scale their AI ambitions. Working alongside experienced strategists and technical experts, you’ll learn how sound AI strategy, use case portfolios, and organizational readiness come together in practice – while getting a technical grounding that goes beyond classic strategy consulting. This is a strong entry point into AI strategy work, with real client exposure from day one.

Your tasks will include:

• Support the design and analysis of AI strategies and use case portfolios for partner companies, working closely with senior strategists and technical leads
• Contribute to AI maturity assessments by gathering data, conducting structured interviews, and synthesizing findings into clear recommendations
• Assist in preparing and running workshops with client teams, translating strategic AI topics into concrete, actionable formats
• Analyze AI use cases across business functions, assessing technical feasibility, data requirements, and value potential together with technical colleagues

• A clear communicator and collaborative team player, eager to learn from senior colleagues and client stakeholders
• Fluent in English and German, communicating confidently with both customers and colleagues in either language
• A highly qualified and motivated team of ~90 people is on a journey to change the rapidly evolving European AI Landscape
• Experience the best of both worlds with our hybrid work model: You can choose to work from our vibrant offices - either at the IPAI in Heilbronn or the House of Communication in Munich - while also enjoying the flexibility to work remotely a few days each week
• Opportunity to shape a variety of projects and the development of new, original content based on the latest developments in AI and its adoption in businesses
• An atmosphere that encourages to think and experiment in new ways with software, hardware, and processes

• Sports membership with Wellpass to access thousands of sports facilities all over Germany (and beyond), as well as online courses
• JobRad: Lease a bike for a cheaper rate via JobRad and we cover the bike insurance on top
• Sabbatical option: You can take a sabbatical of up to 3 months after min. 3 years of employment - because sometimes 30 vacation days are not enough to explore the beauty of this world

• Mobility budget: Every month we contribute to your individual mobility usage with public transport or shared mobility offers within the app Moovster
