Jobbeschreibung

Helping our customers to sell more parts & make things easier with our data and solutions based on our globally leading data standards

TecAlliance interconnects global automotive aftermarket data and knowledge from order to invoice. With over 900 colleagues working relentlessly in 140 countries, we are owned by 34 automotive companies like Bosch, Continental, Rheinmetall, and ZF. We act as an information hub and process facilitator for them, ensuring standardized processes that help clients save costs (process and indirect costs) and time through efficient processes enabled by our software.

In this newly created role as Team Coordinator AI Projects (m / f / d), you will lead the coordination of key Machine Learning initiatives like automatic data extraction, validation, and mapping using AI. For example, we are building based on our data – by ourselves – automatic language translation with our data. We created an internal AI-powered extraction platform that leverages the wealth of existing PDFs (e.g., workshop manuals) to streamline critical processes such as return claims, model pricing, invoice document handling, and car damage detection. It can also give you a rough damage analysis based on a picture that is uploaded.

That´s at the core of what we do. We´re a “Data-as-a Service” company. With you at the forefront, we accelerate innovation and deliver smarter, faster, and more scalable services for the automotive aftermarket.

With you leading these AI projects, we’ll accelerate innovation and ensure smooth, organization-wide adoption of cutting‑edge AI technologies.

Your functional and technical leadership skills will be essential - without your contribution, our ability to scale AI and Machine Learning across TecAlliance will stall. But with you on board, progress will soar, especially alongside Christian Krause’s enthusiastic team who are eager to collaborate and innovate with you.

Your success will be measured by the number of AI processes and solutions you introduce, implement, and drive adoption for within TecAlliance. This is a truly global role where you´ll interact with direct colleagues from Germany & Vietnam, but interact constantly with global teams.

Your role

Functionally lead project teams for AI projects for a pre‑defined project period.

Define and Plan : You draft project‑specific problems, evaluate their relevance & fit, set baselines, and define KPI targets.

Validate and Prove : You check data availability, create hypotheses, and demonstrate measurable improvements.

Ensure Readiness : You secure operational readiness (Service Level Objects, incident runbooks) and steer adoption paths.

Optimize and Share : You monitor outcomes, optimize services, and lead knowledge sharing across teams.

Your profile

• Profound professional experience in a comparable position (IT and / or Data‑focused).
• You´re a hands‑on AI programmer that can also explain complex tech / AI topics to a non‑tech audience and guide them through the project (i.e. KANBAN based).
• Experience in functionally leading a team or leading cross‑functional teams project based.
• Advanced programming skills and technical expertise in the required technology stack.
• Understand and validate Python while being able to spar with AI tools that create the code.
• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science or another relevant formal certification in Data Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field.

Must Have

• Professional English language skills (business fluent)

Nice to Have

• Certifications in international and agile environments (e.g., Scrum Master, Agile Coach, AWS / Azure / Google Cloud certifications)
• Relevant technical certifications (e.g., Data Science, Machine Learning, ITIL, PMP)
• Knowledge of German
