You will support the end-to-end customer journey for our AI-driven manufacturing software - combining engineering skills with business mindset. You will work cross-functionally within ONIQ to maximize customer impact  and play a key part in ONIQ’s overall success. You will: 

• Guide our customers throughout the entire customer value journey - from the first software demo through the pilot phase to the final roll-out
• Become a trusted advisor to our customers, supporting them in rolling out the ONIQ software across the organization and using it to improve production processes and achieve measurable results
• Use your know-how of production processes and your understanding of the customer’s pain points to identify how the ONIQ software can become a major value driver for the customer
• Build a strong and trusted relationship with our customers 
• Promote ONIQ by showcasing the software at customer meetings or industry events
• Contribute to ONIQ’s product strategy by bringing in client feedback and ensuring the software stays aligned with customer needs

• Entrepreneurial mindset and the motivation to take ownership, move things forward and help shape a fast-growing industrial tech company
• Genuine drive to create visible impact in manufacturing and to help industrial companies work more efficiently, sustainably and intelligently
• Hands-on, pragmatic working style and the ability to make progress in a fast-moving, agile environment where priorities can evolve and not every path is predefined
• Strong customer focus and the ambition to create measurable value for both our customers and ONIQ
• Ability to build trusted relationships with customers and work confidently with different stakeholders, from operational teams to senior decision-makers
• Clear, confident communication style and the ability to explain complex topics in a practical, customer-oriented way
• Ability to quickly understand customer challenges in production and translate them into clear, value-creating use cases
• First relevant experience in production management, lean manufacturing, operational excellence, industrial engineering, operations consulting, or a similar production-related environment
• Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering & Management, or a related field
• Excellent language skills in English and German (C1 level)
• Willingness to travel internationally for customer meetings, workshops or industry events, typically around 2-4 on-site meetings per month
• Motivation to spend time with the team in person. We value the energy that comes from working together at our Cologne or Berlin office, so one on-site day per week is the minimum, and more time together is always welcome whenever it works for you

• A culture built on transparency, integrity and authenticity – we trust and respect each other and make decisions based on competence
• A fast-paced, agile environment where you can take on as much responsibility as you feel ready for and actively shape our marketing and go-to-market
• A team that genuinely cares about collaboration and work culture: we regularly reflect on our teamwork, invest work time into team spirit and consciously create balance in everyday work
• The opportunity to contribute to fighting climate change by helping industrial manufacturers to become more efficient and to reduce their CO₂ emissions, while we are mindful of our own environmental impact as a carbon-neutral company
• All the benefits that make work more pleasant: flexible hours, part-time options, remote work options, regular team events and offsites, 30 days PTO, weekly yoga sessions, Deutschlandticket, Urban Sports Club and more
