Job description

What we do

AI is redefining how companies compete. Most organizations know they need to transform but only few know how to realize it. As AI Transformation Manager at Merantix Momentum, you are the person who bridges that gap: turning strategic ambition into lasting organizational change.

Merantix Momentum is developing the next generation of impact-driven AI. As a Berlin-based startup, we are driving enterprise AI transformations across industries by building and deploying B2B solutions, orchestrating scaled, AI-native operations. We work across several domains including automotive, manufacturing, healthcare, and others, transforming businesses through ML using our core expertise in state-of-the-art machine learning. Our start-up DNA defines the way we drive rapid value creation with a humble, diverse, and hungry team.

You act as a trusted sparring partner to executives, steer complex transformation programs across functions, and bridge the gap between technical possibilities and business imperatives.

You don't just advise on AI: you understand how it truly works. You are fluent in modern AI capabilities and can explain how AI capabilities, products, and bespoke Machine Learning solutions are built. This allows you to credibly champion solutions, evaluate investment choices, navigate technical trade-offs, and convince key stakeholders of AI's transformative value.
