Make a difference for our customers and Siemens by guiding the evolution of Differentiating Systems from concept to scalable deployment, ensuring readiness across technical, commercial, and operational dimensions.

At Siemens, we believe that systems are more than the sum of their components. They represent the synergy of software, AI, and automation working together to optimize operations and deliver transformative value for our industrial customers.

We are building a pioneering team to fill the gaps between concept and reality, ensuring that innovative ideas evolve into scalable, reliable solutions. This is not just about designing technology—it’s about deploying it where it matters most: in real-world manufacturing environments.

Our mission is to guide the evolution of Differentiating Systems from concept to scalable deployment, ensuring readiness across technical, commercial, and operational dimensions. By embracing a forward deployment engineering approach, we embed with customer teams, validate solutions in live environments, and iterate rapidly to deliver measurable business impact.

If you are passionate about bridging R&D with field execution, driving continuous improvement, and shaping the future of industrial systems, join us to make a difference for our customers and for Siemens.

As an AI Specialist at Siemens, you will be responsible for integrating AI components (LLMs, Predictive Analytic Models...) into overarching customer workflows and validating their outputs in real operational environments. You will support safe, compliant deployment within industrial settings, ensuring seamless interaction between AI-driven processes and automation systems. You will make sure that the data flow and modeling is fit for the AI and GenAI needs. By embedding with customer teams and partners during pilot and rollout phases, you will adapt AI solutions to real-world constraints and provide rapid feedback to product development, driving continuous improvement and measurable business value.

You will collaborate closely with system architects, software developers, and field teams to ensure that AI models are integrated into the industrial systems and are robust, scalable, and tailored to the manufacturing environment. Your work will bridge the gap between innovative R&D and successful field deployment, enabling reliable adoption of new systems and fostering a culture of learning and improvement.
