Job description

The role pairs customer-facing strategy with hands-on building. A strong candidate can sit with senior executives, find the workflows where automation pays off most, and judge honestly how hard each one is to deliver. They also write Python, use AI coding tools to make quick prototypes, and work alongside engineers until the project is live. The posting is for German speakers based in Cologne, with onsite travel for key customer moments.

How it fits the AI era

AI coding tools and the company's own platform let one person prototype an idea in days, which moves the strategist closer to the build. The work shifts from writing long specs to testing ideas early and showing results. What stays human is judging which problem is worth solving, challenging a customer's first request, earning trust with leaders, and deciding what to build first and what to park.

How it builds AI experience

The company builds AI voice and email agents that handle phone calls and routine operational tasks for supply chain and enterprise teams. Someone here would learn how these agents connect to real business systems, where they struggle with edge cases, and how to scope them realistically. To prepare, build a small voice or email agent in Python that calls an API, and write up what it would be worth to a business.

Worth showing

• Python prototypes built with AI tools
• Executive discovery and communication
• API and integration understanding
• Prioritizing across competing workstreams
