ANYbotics is a fast-growing tech company dedicated to shaping the future of mobile robotics across multiple industries. Join our highly talented and motivated team of more than 200 people and work on cutting-edge robot technology.

The Opportunity

At ANYbotics, we build autonomous, end-to-end robotic solutions that automate routine industrial inspections in complex and hazardous environments. As a Senior Procurement Specialist, you will play a pivotal, high-ownership role in shaping the supply chain foundation for our next-generation robotics platform, ANYmal D2.

Operating at the intersection of strategic sourcing and industrialization, you will drive critical procurement activities from early prototype phases straight through to full production ramp-up. You won't just be managing transactional purchase orders—you will build scalable procurement processes from scratch, secure high-performing global supplier networks, and directly influence the cost, quality, and delivery of cutting-edge robotic hardware.

The Market & Our Technology

Industrial facilities present some of the world's most severe operating conditions. Our autonomous quadrupedal platforms navigate multi-story plants, stairs, and hazardous areas—delivering continuous operational insight without human risk. Bringing a next-generation, high-complexity mechatronic product like ANYmal D2 from concept to serial production demands a resilient, agile, and cost-effective supply chain. Sourcing high-precision mechanical parts, advanced electronics, and specialized electromechanical systems requires a strategic procurement leader who thrives in fast-paced hardware environments.
