Scalable, trustworthy, and future-ready.

Your Role – meaningful & rewarding

• Continuously monitoring global AI research and market trends, with a focus on analyzing academic papers, industry reports, and technological breakthroughs that hold strategic relevance for E.ON
• Collaborating closely with cross-functional teams across E.ON, engaging with various business functions to capture emerging trends from within the organization and linking them to external AI research developments
• Separating hype from genuine innovation to ensure that only developments with tangible business implications reach senior management
• Translating complex AI concepts into clear business impact by explaining what each trend means for E.ON, its markets, and its customers
• Assessing risks, opportunities, and required actions, and recommending whether E.ON should adopt, invest, prepare organizationally, or adapt its overall strategy
• Contributing to thought leadership and decision-making through internal position papers, briefings, and recommendations that turn external innovation into concrete steps for E.ON’s transformation
• Cooperating with internal and external partners while building strong connections with leading experts, research communities, and institutions through conferences, partnerships, and networks

• Deep expertise in AI concepts, algorithms, and architectures, combined with the ability to critically assess their maturity, limitations, and potential business impact
• Proven experience in reviewing and synthesizing scientific literature—ideally in AI or machine learning—and identifying which findings matter for real-world applications
• Exceptional skill in translating complex technical developments into business-relevant insights and strategic recommendations, making cutting-edge AI accessible and actionable for decision-makers
• Proactive, analytical, and curious mindset, thriving in environments where innovation is explored and ideas are transformed into tangible business outcomes
• Excellent communication skills in English, with the ability to adapt messages to both technical and business audiences; German language proficiency considered a plus

• Advance your development: We grow and we want you to grow with us. Learning on the job, exchanging with others, or taking part in an individual training – our learning culture enables you to bring your personal and professional development to the next level.
• Recharge your battery: You have 30 days of paid vacation per year plus Christmas and New Year's Eve off. Your battery still needs charging? You can exchange parts of your salary for more paid vacation or you can take a sabbatical.
• Stay active & healthy: Benefit from a company-sponsored health membership.
• Elevate your mobility: From car and bike leasing offers to a subsidised Deutschland-Ticket – your way is our way.
• Think ahead: With our company pension scheme and a great insurance package we take care of your future.
