Country Manager - Germany (Shift)

Accelerating embodied AGI.

The next ten years of AI will not be won in software. They will be won in the physical world: in factories, hospitals, kitchens, fields, and homes. The companies that own that data will own the century.

microagi is building it. We are a data research and deployment lab. Atlas captures the manual work inside Europe’s industrial champions, trains foundation models on it, and deploys the right robot onto the floor, with no teleoperation and no interruption to the line. Shift records how physical work actually happens and turns it into training-ready data.

We were founded by former Formula 1 engineers from Red Bull Racing and Mercedes, together with a researcher from the Alan Turing Institute. Our $55M seed round, the largest in German history, was led by Hummingbird with Northzone, LocalGlobe, Village Global, and redalpine. We are based in Munich, with our research centre in Zürich and teams in London, New York, and Istanbul. We are now building the engineering and research teams that will take Atlas into new industries.

This is an incredible opportunity, to own Shift’s German operation, from business acquisition and data collection through logistics, team-building and delivery.

Requirements

•
Strong operational ownership: able to make local decisions, coordinate teams and take responsibility for delivery.

•
Ability to win participation from businesses, particularly mid-sized businesses doing skilled, non-domestic tasks.

•
Commercial judgment: build a local operation while operating as lean as possible.

•
Practical logistics capability: maximise hardware, including distribution, returns, cleaning, uploads and loss prevention.

•
Comfort building a team where justified by the economics, while working closely with Shift’s central team.

•
Willingness to do hands-on, repetitive operational work, not only strategy or automation.

Who Will Thrive at microagi

Everyone we hire is assessed on the same four traits:

•
Mission and vision: you care about what we are building and why it matters, and your past choices show it.

•
Intensity: you work at a pace that matches the size of the opportunity, and you sustain it.

•
Entrepreneurial: you start things nobody asked for, and you finish them.

•
Raw IQ: you learn fast, reason from first principles, and get sharper when the problem changes.

This is for you if:

•
You would rather own a problem end to end than wait for a spec.

•
You use AI every day, and you can tell a correct answer from a plausible one.

•
You want to work in person, in the office, with people who are very good at what they do.

This is not for you if:

•
You are looking for a predictable 9-to-5.

•
You would forward output you cannot explain.

•
"That’s not my job" feels like a reasonable answer.

How We Hire

We read every application and reply within five working days.

•
Talent Screen (30 min): a first conversation, both ways.

•
Technical or Functional Interview (60 min): how you think when the problem changes.

•
Your Work (60 min): bring something you are proud of and walk us through it.

•

Then a decision, usually within a few days.

Pay Transparency

What We Offer

•
Agency: real ownership from day one, and decisions that actually matter.

•
Freedom: to choose how you solve the problem, without layers of approval.

•
Free food and drinks in the office.
