About the job


About FilicsFilics is reinventing intralogistics with autonomous mobile robots that change how material moves. Our double-runner system makes Filics the first and only AMR that can drive through load carriers such as Euro pallets. That breaks forklift logic and sets a new standard for efficiency. We're a small, hands-on team that solves hard problems with engineering excellence. Leadership goes to those who take initiative and consistently deliver.

The ChallengeOur robots are built from hundreds of components. Many are single-sourced and most aren't under contract yet. As we move from prototypes to serial production, one missing part can stop the whole line. We need a supply chain that knows exactly what we depend on, secures it before it becomes a risk, and holds up as volumes grow, all while production is already running.

Your MissionBuild a robust supply chain from scratch so we can build our robots reliably as we scale. You take full ownership of how we source, secure and manage every component.

  • What You'll DoSecure supply: Find our critical dependencies, lock in availability through supplier contracts, and qualify alternatives so no single source can stop us.
  • Build the foundation: Set up the ERP and the systems our supply chain runs on, including supplier quality tracking.
  • Define quality: Set clear quality criteria for suppliers and components together with engineering.
  • Create visibility: Give the assembly team the forward visibility they need to plan builds.
  • Inform decisions: Turn supply analysis into input for leadership's volume commitments.
  • Drive cost down: Once supply is robust, reduce component prices toward a leaner bill of materials.


  • Who You'll Work WithEngineering: owns technical specs and qualifies suppliers and alternative components
  • Assembly: depends on reliable supply to plan builds
  • Leadership: sets volume commitments based on your analysis


  • What You BringSeveral years in supply chain, procurement or sourcing for hardware products (e.g. robotics, automotive, machinery, electronics)
  • Proven experience building supply chain structures from the ground up, ideally from prototype to series production
  • Hands-on experience setting up or rolling out an ERP system
  • A solid grasp of BOMs, component sourcing, supplier qualification and supplier quality
  • Strong negotiation skills and experience closing supplier contracts
  • A hands-on, structured approach: you prioritize well, work comfortably without defined processes, and deliver
  • Clear, concise communication in English


  • What We OfferFull ownership of a function you build yourself, with direct impact on getting our robots into series production
  • A small, ambitious team where initiative leads to responsibility
  • Work on a first-of-its-kind product in intralogistics
  • An on-site/hybrid role in Munich, close to engineering and assembly
