Your mission

At sewts we automate what others can’t. Gripping of deformable materials like textiles is a task most humans see as intuitive and simple. However, this is a complicated task for robots as they lack the detailed and contextual understanding of where and with what level of sensitivity to handle these textiles. As deep-tech enthusiasts, we teach industrial robots human perception skills.

We are building a foundational technology stack called sewts.JUPITER. JUPITER uses genAI to simulate realistically the behavior of deformable & soft objects to create corresponding computer vision models and grabbing strategies. Based on our physical AI first time ever robots get enabled to handle soft & deformable materials. With over €10M in funding we will bring automation into all untapped industries, like cloth manufacturing, textiles handling, recycling & e-commerce.

You will make the difference! We have built a high-performance culture where efficient target achievement and consistent development is at the core of our company philosophy. We are working independently with ownership and a strong motivation to go the extra mile. We are setting our goals high, enjoying our daily challenges, while loving to share a laugh with our fellow team members. We are a diverse team, with many different nationalities, which values direct communication and open feedback.

How you will make an impact:

• Assist in the design and development of automation modules, applying mechatronics principles to create efficient and reliable systems;
• Collaborate with the team to test automation systems, collect and analyze data, and propose improvements based on your findings;
• Gain practical knowledge of sensors, actuators, PLCs, and other components crucial to automation systems;
• Assist in creating engineering data and CAD drawings to support the design and development process;
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including mechanical, electrical, and software engineers, to solve complex engineering challenges.

Your profile

• Currently pursuing a degree in Mechatronics-, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field;
• Strong understanding of mechatronics and automation principles, with a passion for robotics and automation technology;
• Hands-on experience with designing and building automation projects, including familiarity with CAD software (preferably INVENTOR);
• Basic knowledge of electrical engineering concepts and their application in automation systems;
• Eagerness to learn and develop new skills, with a proactive and problem-solving mindset;
• Strong communication skills in English (German a huge plus!) and the ability to work collaboratively in a diverse team environment.

Why us?

• Be a part of a leading robotics and automation startup in Munich and leave an impact from day one;
• Benefit from our Remote Work Policy, where you spend ≥70% of your time in the office with your team members and ≤30% in Mobile Office;
• Engage in regular team events (e.g., barbecues, summer parties, ski trips and laser tag);
• Develop your career through regular feedback cycles through weekly and quarterly check-ins.
