Job description

TYTAN Technologies

The PACE is fast. The expectations are high. The contribution matters. Working at TYTAN is more than a job, this is a mission. We push boundaries, think big, and hold ourselves to the highest standard. Our mission and values guide everything we do, and we're looking for people who are driven by ownership, embrace challenges, and are energized by meaningful work. If you're motivated by impact and thrive in dynamic environments, you'll fit right in.

At TYTAN, we aim to set a global standard in autonomous air defense with AI-driven, cost-efficient systems that counter unmanned aerial threats at scale. We protect people. We protect critical infrastructure. We protect European sovereignty.

We are looking for a hands‑on, technical lead for business applications, data and AI. You shape how our teams use AI safely and productively, design the platforms behind it and help draw the future of this area early. You own the application and data landscape and lead the area as it grows with the company, working directly with the Head of IT & Cyber Security.

Your roadmap to make an impact

Design and run AI for the company

• Design and run the platform our teams use to build and operate AI solutions, from first use cases to production
• Define how models are accessed across the company: identity, logging, quotas and cost transparency
• Choose the right model for each use case, from cloud services to self-hosted models
• Connect AI to company data safely: retrieval, agents and tool integrations that respect access rights
• Own our AI strategy and AI usage policy, including rules per data class

Shape the future early

• Draw the target picture for AI, automation and business applications together with enterprise architecture
• Evaluate new models, tools and agent frameworks and turn the useful ones into standards
• Deliver automation and AI use cases together with our AI & Automation Engineer
• Govern AI assistants in our workplace tools: licensing, permissions and data protection

Own business applications

• Own our business application landscape, from ERP, finance and HR to engineering and production systems, together with the teams
• Keep integrations, systems of record and master data clear across all applications
• Steer the roadmap of our business applications and their integrations
• Keep the application and tool landscape lean and documented, and decide on new tool requests

Shape data and reporting

• Shape company reporting and the data platform behind it
• Define data models, data ownership and quality rules with the business teams, so management gets reliable numbers

Drive adoption and access

• Support user adoption and training for new applications, which the Head of IT & Cyber Security leads
• Contribute to identity and access management: application roles, access rights and joiner, mover, leaver flows

• 7+ years in business applications, data or AI, including hands‑on work building AI solutions in a company
• Hands‑on experience with an enterprise AI platform on a major cloud: you have taken models, prompts and agents to real users
• Experience with central model access or API management: routing, quotas, logging and cost control
• Practical experience with retrieval (RAG), agents or tool calling, and a clear view of what data may go where
• Solid cloud and integration skills: REST APIs, webhooks, middleware and identity; you read code and write a data model
• Ownership of business applications, such as an ERP or PLM landscape, from introduction to live operation
• Experience with integration governance: systems of record, master data, interfaces and their owners
• Reporting or a data platform that business teams use every day
• Solid Microsoft 365 knowledge, including licensing, permissions and data protection for AI assistants
• You work well with Finance, HR, Production and R&D and explain technology in plain words
• Fluent English; fluent in German is close to a must
• Based in Munich or willing to relocate
• Eligible to work in the German defense sector: you sign confidentiality and export‑control obligations and pass a security check

Nice to have

• Cloud AI or solution architecture certifications
• Running self-hosted models on GPU hardware
• Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers or agent frameworks in production
• ERP, PLM or MES experience in a manufacturing company
• Modern BI and data platform tools
• Fluent German and already based in Munich (a big plus)
• Experience in a regulated or security-sensitive industry

• Build technology with real operational impact: Develop autonomous defense systems designed to protect lives and strengthen Europe’s security
• Shape scalable defense capabilities: Work on solutions built for mass deployment, cost efficiency, resilience, and reliable production at scale
• Contribute to networked air defense: Help integrate our systems into multi-layered defense architectures alongside sensors, command systems, and effectors

• Work with an international mission-driven team: Collaborate with experienced specialists united by the goal of creating sovereign and effective security capabilities for Europe
