Description
The Role
One day you wear a suit and convince high-level executive, the next day you get your hands dirty and help the engineers. Being part of our business development department is about researching current and future needs of customers and adjusting them with our engineers. You will have to think many steps ahead to spot industry trends and those that not even industry experts have realized. Working in BD will ultimately give you the broadest perspective of what is happening at KONUX. Therefore, it is essential that you combine an interest in hardware and software engineering with your ability to research and implement scalable solutions. You learn and adapt quickly and will be able to use every tool at their disposal – market reports, industry fairs, and customer contact, in order to understand and effectively tackle hard problems.

We combine German engineering with Silicon Valley speed and innovation to create the best possible predictive analytics solutions for our customers.
