Our Mission
At Circus, headquartered in Munich, we are pioneering global developments in on-demand autonomous food production. Everything from creation to production and operation – enabled by seamlessly integrated cutting-edge robotics and transformative AI technology.
Our foundation rests in the extensive developments of groundbreaking robotics driven by artificial intelligence, previously the missing link in achieving true autonomous food automation. This is the moment for a new status quo: Just as autonomous driving will disrupt how we build cities, organize our days, and live our lives, so will we shift our whole reality around food.
Our Team is backing a paradigm shift in one of humanity's most important sectors with the sharpest minds in Robotics, AI, Engineering and Culinary, collaborating closely with industry-leading partners to revolutionize every aspect of the food service experience.
Join us as we forge ahead, crafting a future where the art of cooking and the science of technology converge to create a world that thinks differently about food than it has for thousands of years—a world where food means something new.
About the Role
You'll bring new robotics prototypes to life on the bench — assembling, wiring, and configuring the electrical systems that power our early-stage builds. Working shoulder-to-shoulder with engineers and designers, you'll turn evolving requirements into working hardware, troubleshoot issues as they surface, and keep our prototyping process moving fast without cutting corners on safety.Your Daily Business
- Assemble, wire, and configure electrical components and assemblies for new robotics prototypes
- Support the development and build-out of prototypes for new products and technologies
- Identify and troubleshoot electrical malfunctions during the prototyping process
- Work closely with engineers and designers to translate requirements into physical builds, adapting prototypes as designs evolve
- Document prototype changes, tests, and results to inform future iterations
- Maintain ESD-compliant, safety-conform working practices in line with German VDE standards and accident prevention regulations (UVV)
Base Qualifications
- Completed apprenticeship or degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field (e.g. Elektroniker/in, Mechatroniker/in or comparable)
- Strong grounding in electrical engineering, with the ability to read and interpret technical drawings and schematics
- Familiarity with ESD protection measures and VDE-compliant working practices
- Precise, careful manual work in the assembly and wiring of components
- A team player with strong communication skills who stays sharp in a fast-paced, hands-on environment
- Proficient in English; German is a plus
Preferred Qualifications
- Hands-on experience with 3D printing or mechanical assembly
- Familiarity with rapid prototyping workflows
