Team Lead (f/m/d) Agent Foundry

Are you passionate about building AI agents that run in real factories? Join our operations team and lead the technical side of the Agent Foundry, the team that takes agentic systems from first factory assessment to productive operation across our network of more than 20 factories. You will – in close collaboration with a multinational team located across our factory network – define architecture blueprints every factory adapts to its own context, build the environment in which agents become productive, and make sure they go live in a compliant way.

• *What we offer you**
• An attractive remuneration package
• Access to Siemens share plans
• 30 days of paid vacation and a variety of flexible work schedules that allow time off for you and your family
• Flexible training opportunities for both your professional and personal development that you can tailor to your interests
• Barrier-free locations

Since each of over 300,000 team members feels that other benefits are particularly important, and we cannot list our entire benefit portfolio here, you can find more information [here](https://www.siemens.com/de/en/company/jobs/benefits-what-we-offer.html).

The individual benefits are subject to regulatory, contractual, or corporate conditions.

• *How you’ll make an impact**
• You own the technical direction of the Agent Foundry together with the project lead and supported by operations specialists of the respective factories, from the first factory assessment through to stable operation, and you turn the rollout across more than 20 factories into one architecture blueprint with regional variants, so that each plant adapts a proven pattern instead of starting from scratch.
• You design the target architecture for agents in production and operations (orchestration, access to tools and systems, permissions, auditability and day-to-day running), and you build the surrounding environment that makes agents productive (shared context, tool access, approval flows and feedback from the shop floor, rather than isolated agents).
• You evaluate process potential together with business and factory teams and convert the results into a prioritized roadmap, and secure compliant go-lives with the specialist functions for EU AI Act, NIS2, OT security and data protection, building compliance into the design rather than adding it at the end.
• You lead the domain pods across our factories and set the MLOps and DevSecOps standards that also apply to locally extended agents.
• You work in close collaboration with the EA Operations DIT team, which is paving the ground for further digitalization and owner of major factory software implementation projects.
• You expand our international team of internal and external experts, shape the selection of partners, and decide on platform and technology while connecting to existing Siemens building blocks, and you make the team's results visible inside and outside Siemens, for example through talks and publications.
• *This is how you'll win us over**
• You bring a relevant academic background (minimum Bachelor's degree) in Data Analytics and Business Administration and many years of experience as an architect or tech lead for AI agent systems, taking solutions from concept to productive operation in a large, regulated organization.
• You have hands-on experience with multi-agent orchestration and with governance and approval processes for AI systems, and you have a strong grounding in cloud architecture for agents, e.g., AWS Bedrock, Model Context Protocol, and in modern coding agents.
• You have working knowledge of the EU AI Act, NIS2, OT security and data protection, and the ability to turn these requirements into practical design decisions.
• You have experience in leading (engineering) teams and external partners, and bringing business, IT/OT and management to one table, and agile delivery experience (Scrum or SAFe).
• You have experience with industrial data, MES or ERP systems or OT environments, and talks or publications on agent systems.
• Willingness to travel regularly to our factories, especially in the early phase of the rollout, and proficiency in English and German complete your profile.

You are much more than your qualifications, and we believe in the potential of every single candidate. We look forward to getting to know you!
