As a Solution Engineer, you bring NOVA to life in real customer applications. You work hands-on in projects delivered by our own team, and you guide customers and partners who build their own solutions with NOVA. You enable them to become successful and independent with our product, and you bring what you learn in the field back to our product and engineering teams.

What you do

Customer projects (Wandelbots-delivered)

• You are part of our project teams: you help design, implement and commission robotic applications built on NOVA, from simulation to the real cell.
• You know these projects inside out and become the technical point of contact for the customer after go-live, including support and further development.

Customer & partner projects

• You accompany projects that customers and integration partners implement themselves, as their technical sparring partner.
• You review solution architectures, help with tricky technical questions and unblock teams on site or remotely.

Enablement

Your profile

• You have several years of experience as an automation, robotics or application engineer, ideally in customer-facing projects.
• You have hands-on experience with industrial robots (e.g. KUKA, ABB, FANUC, Universal Robots, Yaskawa) and know typical applications such as handling, palletizing or machine tending.
• You are comfortable writing code, ideally in Python.
• You understand industrial networks and communication (TCP/IP, PROFINET/EtherNet/IP, OPC UA) and can get a robot cell connected.
• You are curious about AI and use it in your daily work, e.g. for development or for robotic applications.
• You can explain technical concepts clearly and enjoy teaching others.
• You communicate confidently and empathetically with customers and partners.
• You are fluent in German (C1 or higher) and English, written and spoken.
• You hold a driving license and are open to regular travel to customer sites.
• You are based in Dresden, or willing to move or commute to spend about 2/3 of your time at our Dresden shopfloor, especially during the first 6 months.

You are awesome if

• You have experience with simulation, especially NVIDIA Omniverse / Isaac Sim.
• You have worked with TypeScript, C++, containers (Docker/Kubernetes), GitLab or GitHub.
• You have experience with ROS.
• You have worked for a system integrator or in a technical consulting or presales role.
