WeSort. AI GmbH is a high-tech start-up that is revolutionising recycling through artificial intelligence. This is how we make our contribution to the urgently needed circular economy, because our deep learning systems enable both granular analysis and sorting of e.g. electronic waste and plastics. This year, we were one of six start-ups nationwide to be awarded the prestigious Gründerpreis plus by the Federal Ministry of Economics (BMWK). We are also working on research projects with partners such as Fraunhofer and Siemens to put a stop to climate change and pollution of the oceans. For this, we need a strong team that shares our values and is committed to this vision/mission. As part of the German government's national AI strategy, we have received funding that will allow us to build our team and company sustainably and profitably for years to come.

You represent our company, systems and values both to customers and the public. You establish and maintain customer relationships with industry leaders and expand our network across Europe.
