Senior Lead - Computational and Robotics Engineer, Lightspray

Location: Zurich

Innovation

In short
------------

Join us at the heart of the revolution. As a hands\-on engineer in our LightSpray production sites, you will be the critical link between engineering and live operations. You will manage a growing production system, ensuring this disruptive technology is robust, repeatable, and ready to change the industry forever

Your Mission
----------------

• Orchestrating a Complex Hardware\-Software Ecosystem: You will own the software architecture that commands our automated production cells. You will direct your team to build the inaugural generation of functional services that control and synchronize a highly diverse array of hardware tools and advanced manufacturing processes—including multi\-axis spraying, precision inkjet branding, laser scanning, milling, and 3D scanning. To achieve this, you will act as the technical unifier, collaborating with specialists across fields to ensure a harmonized digital ecosystem.


• Securing the Bridge from Innovation to Production: Innovation requires structure to scale. You will serve as the critical liaison to the core Infrastructure and Technology teams, systematically organizing the handover of successful Proof of Concepts (PoCs). You will ensure that all localized innovations are fully compatible with enterprise standards, including rigorous cybersecurity frameworks, robust version control, and architectures optimized for long\-term quality maintenance.


• Championing Agile, Continuous Evolution: Hardware evolves rapidly, and your software must keep pace without breaking. You will engineer seamless pipelines where information flows flawlessly between physical machines and digital logic. By cultivating an agile development environment, you will enable the team to iterate rapidly alongside hardware advancements while maintaining a strict commitment to Continuous Integration (CI) and fast, zero\-downtime deployment to production.

• Educational Background: A PhD or Advanced Degree in Engineering combining applied mathematics, mechanics, mechatronics, or software engineering.


• 6\+ Years of Industry Experience: Proven track record in highly technical manufacturing, digital fabrication, or additive manufacturing environments (experience in specialized automation sectors like large\-scale 3D printing or complex material deposition is highly valued).


• Industrial Robotics \& Automation Expertise: Deep, hands\-on experience controlling and simulating multi\-axis industrial robots, including defining custom kinematic workflows and multi\-DOF robotic cell configurations.


• Advanced Computational Design: A strong portfolio in generative design, parametric programming (e.g., C\#, Grasshopper, or custom API frameworks), and translating complex geometric models into executable machine and toolpath code.


• Technical Leadership \& Entrepreneurial Mindset: Demonstrated experience leading multidisciplinary teams of engineers and software developers, with a history of driving technical roadmaps from research to scalable, production\-ready systems.

As a member of the Innovation Technology Engineering team, you will join a multidisciplinary collective of experts redefining the future of sports goods manufacturing. We bridge the gap between digital theory and physical industrialization by building bespoke machinery, processing novel materials, and leveraging advanced modeling and simulation. Our mission is to unlock the potential of next\-generation manufacturing, developing the custom software and engineering workflows needed to scale high\-performance products.

Footwear Testing Lead

We touch every product that's being made because we bring the connection to the human being. So while everyone's excited about products, materials and colors, we go and say, “okay, so what does this actually do for the human?”
What we offer
-----------------

On is a place that is centered around growth and progress. We offer an environment designed to give people the tools to develop holistically – to stay active, to learn, explore and innovate. Our distinctive approach combines a supportive, team\-oriented atmosphere, with access to personal self\-care for both physical and mental well\-being, so each person is led by purpose.

On is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We are committed to creating a work environment that is fair and inclusive, where all decisions related to recruitment, advancement, and retention are free of discrimination.

Build the better you
What to expect
------------------

We want to set everyone up for success, so here’s the lowdown on how we hire. Our process is a two\-way street – bringing you into our culture, while helping us learn how you think.

Our full process can last about eight weeks from application to offer, because we care about getting it right. These steps explain how we usually do things.

Before you get started, feel free to consider if you want to work with us. Strange question? Well, we give people a lot of space to navigate their day\-to\-day and that style isn't for everyone. We want you to be passionate about what you do and be sure this is the right fit. Because when skills and passion combine – it creates that 'Wow' moment.

• ### Step One

It starts with you...

You'll start by submitting your application to a specific role. We try to keep this step as simple as possible. We do get a lot of applications, but we review them all. If you're a good fit to the role, a recruiter will follow up with you directly. If you didn't receive a reply, or were unsuccessful this time around, we encourage you to look for other possible matches at On.

• ### Step Two

Interview with a recruiter

What ignites your spirit? This is where we’ll start getting to know all about you and what makes you tick – and it’s your first chance to get a feel for our culture. Chatting with a member of our talent team, you’ll learn more about On and how we work. We’ll learn about what motivates you and what you could bring to the team.

• ### Step Three

Interview with a hiring manager

Ready to dig into the details? This second interview will be held with your future manager and will focus on the specifics of the job. Together you’ll delve into your unique skills and experiences and how they could be relevant at On. It's also a time to assess how you might feel working side\-by\-side. Bring any questions you have about the job, the team or anything else you might like to know – this is an open forum.

• ### Step Four

The Case Study

What's your style? This task will help us understand how you think, face a challenge and give insight into your novel ideas. Designed to give everyone their best shot, your case study is based on something you might typically experience on the job. This is your chance to show us what you’ve got. So express yourself. Be you.

• ### Step Five

The Experience Day

Your first taste of the Oniverse. This is a time to meet some of the people you'll be working closest with. In person or virtually, you'll get a feel for the day\-to\-day at On and the people who make it happen. You'll chat with a few potential teammates \- the conversations will be as equally driven by the role and your experience as by our values. We believe how you do things is just as important as what you do.

• ### Step Six

The Result

Are we a good fit? We’ll get together internally to share our feedback and decide if we’re a match. We know that job searching is a big time investment, so it’s not a decision we take lightly. It’s also time for you to reflect on the experience – are we the right place for you? No matter the outcome, we’ll give you meaningful feedback.
