About TACTILIAAt TACTILIA, we are building the industry-ready robotic hand that closes one of the biggest gaps in Physical AI. Spun out of SCHUNK, the global market leader in gripping technology, we combine a decade of robotic-hand expertise and real industrial access with the speed and ambition of a deep-tech startup.This isn't a research project waiting for its first customer. We already have a product, customers are ready to use it, and we are launching now. Your work will directly shape the product, roadmap, and development process that make that possible.You will join at the moment when the hard robotics questions become real product decisions: how do we turn customer needs into a highly capable robotic hand that is reliable, manufacturable, and ready to deploy on a real shop floor?The RoleAs a Chief Technology Officer, you will own TACTILIA's technology strategy, product architecture, and engineering execution. You will lead a multidisciplinary organization across project management, systems engineering, mechanics, electronics, sensorics, embedded and robotics software, AI, product management, applications and testing. Your responsibility is to turn a highly capable robotic hand into a reliable, manufacturable, serviceable and scalable industrial product.This is a leadership role with substantial technical depth. You do not need to be the deepest specialist in every discipline, but you must have first-hand experience with both hardware and software development and the judgment to make sound system-level decisions across both.What you will do:Set the technology direction. Define TACTILIA’s technology strategy and product roadmap from the current platform to a scalable industrial product.Lead the whole stack. Lead the teams across project management, systems, mechanics, electronics, sensorics, embedded and robotics software, AI, product, applications and testing.Make the architecture work. Own the system architecture and the interfaces between hardware, softwar
