Giotto.ai is a Switzerland-based AI company building portable intelligence systems for enterprises and governments across Switzerland and Europe.
Our mission is to enable organizations to retain full control over the AI systems they use - without compromising access to advanced reasoning capabilities. From this control comes what matters most: protected data, operational autonomy, and long-term strategic independence.
Giotto develops next-generation reasoning models and AI infrastructure engineered for performance, efficiency, and deployment flexibility. Our systems are designed to run on the infrastructure of your choice-from on-premise GPUs to dedicated sovereign cloud environments.
As Business Development Manager, you will work directly with the founders to drive commercial growth.
You’ll identify high-value opportunities, build relationships with enterprise and government stakeholders, and help define how Giotto.ai is positioned in the market. You should be comfortable operating in ambiguity, working closely with technical teams, and engaging with senior decision-makers.

- Ability to operate independently in a fast-moving startup environment
- Interest in AI, infrastructure, deep tech, or sovereign technology
- Experience working with enterprise, regulated industries, or government customers is a strong plus
