Working Student (Frankfurt) – Applied AI & Optimization (m/f/x) - #2113371

Join Our Mission

Shape the Future of Applied AI with Us!

At Quantagonia, our founders have built and scaled successful companies, including achieving Unicorn status. But throughout their journey, they saw a recurring problem: while optimization has the potential to solve huge planning challenges, it has always been too complex and out of reach for most businesses.

That’s why we created DecisionAI—to make real-time, AI-powered optimization accessible for everyone. We’re tackling the biggest challenges of our time, from cutting kilometers and costs in logistics to solving complex distribution puzzles, mastering scheduling challenges, and enabling fascinating production optimizations.

This is your chance to bring your theoretical knowledge into real-world action and see the results of your work on the greatest playground of all: the real world.
