Help engineering leaders adapt to the future - through the advisors they already trust.
We’re scaling Synera by building strong alliances with consulting firms that shape digital transformation in manufacturing and engineering. As our Channel & Partner Manager, you’ll lead the development of our consulting partner ecosystem - from strategic firms like Capgemini or Porsche Consulting to AI and deep-tech boutiques like AppliedAI.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
Your focus: identify, engage, and activate trusted consultancies who guide enterprise clients on innovation, process automation, and AI strategy. Together, we’ll enable these partners to deliver more value to their clients - and drive real revenue for Synera through co-selling, solution packaging, and GTM initiatives.
You’ll work directly with Moritz (CEO) and collaborate closely with Andrew (Technical Partner Manager), David (Customer Success), Sebastian (CFO), Sales, and Marketing. This role is both strategic and at the same time, hands-on - ideal for someone who has built partner programs in early-stage environments and wants to define how industrial companies adopt engineering automation and low-code AI tooling.
What a potential week at Synera could look like:
Monday: You review active partner opportunities, and you sync with Moritz on a potential strategic alliance with a large consultancy.
Tuesday: You run an enablement session for an AI partner and co-develop a value proposition tailored to their industrial clients.
Wednesday: You join a customer workshop with a consulting firm and jointly pitch a digital thread automation project to the end client.
Thursday: You finalize a co-marketing playbook with Marketing and check the technical fit with Andrew for a new integration-led opportunity.
Friday: You update CRM, capture learnings from partner calls, and prepare a short recap for the next leadership meeting.

You take ownership of a greenfield partner initiative, with direct visibility and impact.
You collaborate with top-tier engineering and business leaders across the DACH region and globally.

Flexible public holidays - swap days off according to your values and beliefs!
Need time to recharge your batteries? No problem - talk to your team and take as much time off as you like. We don't count your vacation days as we trust all our team members to decide what's best for them and the company.
You benefit from a wide range of employee perks - including access to Wellpass and personalized coaching - to support your physical, mental, and professional well-being.
In case you'll work remotely, we'll help you get set up at home and invite you to come and visit Bremen from time to time.
Spend time together with your colleagues during regular team events, virtual coffee breaks or spontaneous afterworks :-) For summer & winter we usually get together with the whole company to spend 2-3 days somewhere nice!
