Apply About the Role at RobCo
RobCo is building the category of Autonomous Industrial Robotics and we're doing it fast. We believe that automating the ordinary frees humans to do the extraordinary, and we're building the end-to-end robotics infrastructure to make that possible - hardware, software, and AI in one stack that just works.
As our Material Planner (m/f/d), you are the primary driver of our operational purchasing execution, translating demand planning signals into seamless supplier delivery. If something is broken, you fix it. If something can be automated, you build it. You will act as the vital bridge between planning, engineering, and our suppliers, ensuring our production workflows remain uninterrupted and highly efficient.
Your Responsibilities
Run MRP signals to determine what materials need to be ordered and precisely when, managing your assigned product categories.
Convert planned orders into formal purchase orders and actively manage their execution through to successful delivery.
Monitor stock levels and delivery dates, proactively keeping our ERP system current and highly accurate.
Manage day-to-day supplier relationships within your categories, including expediting, processing order changes, and executing delivery follow-ups.
Resolve delivery conflicts and supplier constraints, troubleshooting issues independently and escalating only when no resolution is possible.
Maintain close technical alignment with Engineering and Category Management regarding component specifications, substitutions, and sourcing constraints.
Drive inventory and ERP data accuracy across all assigned categories to prevent bottlenecks.
Build deep supplier and category expertise as our production volume and complexity continue to grow.
We're looking for someone who has:
Completed vocational training or a degree in Supply Chain Management, Logistics, Business Administration, or comparable experience.
Several years of experience in operational procurement, purchasing, or material planning.
Working knowledge of MRP logic and ERP-driven purchase order processing.
Strong communication and negotiation skills, with comfort aligning closely with technical stakeholders on sourcing decisions.
Excellent prioritization skills when managing competing delivery deadlines within a complex, multi-unit category structure.
Culture-aligned mindset (e.g., "Strong ownership mindset", "Growth mindset", "Pragmatic working style").
Very good English skills (German is a plus).
Why join RobCo?
Develop modular, software-defined robotics solutions with us that set new standards in automation.
Help us build robots equipped with state-of-the-art AI that perceive their environment, analyze data, and make intelligent decisions in real time.
As part of a very dynamic and fast-growing scale-up, you will take on responsibility from day one, drive your own projects, and see the direct impact of your work.
Flat hierarchies, open communication, and regular 360° feedback enable fast decisions and support your professional and personal development.
Work out across Germany in over 7,200 studios with our subsidized Wellpass membership.
Flexible working hours, a modern office, and—depending on the role—the option to work from home.
Regular team events—from relaxed beer & pizza nights on the rooftop terrace to shared experiences on ski trips or at Oktoberfest.
