About Pexon

Forward deployed engineering, not a report about your systems.

PEXON ROMANIA S.R.L. is the AI engineering hub of Pexon Group, registered in Cluj-Napoca in 2026. It practises forward deployed engineering: senior engineers work inside a customer's own cloud tenant, on their systems, alongside their team. Engagements are contracted under German law and start with a two-week fixed-price blueprint.

Pexon is a data and AI engineering group for European mid-market companies and their regulated neighbours.

Most AI projects do not fail on the model. They fail because nobody was accountable for the data underneath it.

These four figures describe Pexon Group. This site is published by PEXON ROMANIA S.R.L., the group's AI engineering hub in Cluj-Napoca, registered in 2026 — a separate legal entity, and the party you contract with here. Engagements are governed by German law; that is a choice of law, not a German counterparty.

Why we exist

We kept being called in after the pilot.

Pexon started as a cloud engineering firm. Between 2019 and 2023 the group built platforms for manufacturers, utilities and financial services, and kept arriving at the same moment in the same kind of conversation.

A team had proven that AI worked. The demo answered the question, the room was impressed, and then it stopped. Not on the model, and not on budget. It stopped because the data was unreachable, the permission model could not be expressed, and nobody owned the thing after the pilot team moved on.

Nobody needed another workshop. They needed engineers who would read the schema, carry the rights through, and still be there in month nine.

THE BRIEF THAT SHAPED THE COMPANY

So we rebuilt how we work. Senior engineers embedded inside the client's environment rather than a project team reporting from outside it. Data layer first, model choice second. Everything inside the client's own tenant, contracted under German law, with the code and the pipelines belonging to them.

Today the group is five specialist companies covering cloud and AI, SAP, agentic workflows, technical training and industrial CAD, coordinated internally so a mid-market company deals with one partner instead of five vendors. PEXON ROMANIA S.R.L. is the AI engineering arm of that group, and the company you contract with on this site.

How we got here

The group's timeline, and where this company enters it.

  1. 2019

    Founded

    Cloud and platform engineering for German mid-market industry.

  2. 2021

    Kubernetes and data

    Managed platforms in regulated environments, built to ISO 27001 controls as the baseline rather than certified against them.

  3. 2023

    First AI production system

    A retrieval platform with row-level rights, not a chatbot pilot.

  4. 2025

    Forward deployed model

    Named engineers embedded on site, priced per engineer per month.

  5. 2026

    PEXON ROMANIA S.R.L. registered

    The group's AI engineering hub, in Cluj-Napoca. It publishes this site and signs the contracts offered on it.

How we work

Four commitments, and all four go in the contract.

These are not values on a wall. Each one is something a security committee can check we did, which is the only reason any of them is worth writing down.

Data layer first

  • Extract, clean, mask and index before any model is chosen.
  • Your real permission model carried through end to end — a system that shows everyone everything never reaches production.
  • A two-week blueprint before any build.

Neutral by design

  • Frontier models where they earn their cost, open-weight where the data class demands it, on-premise where the law does.
  • We resell nothing and take no margin on your consumption.
  • Azure, AWS, Google Cloud or your own hardware.

Named accountability

  • The people in the first call are the people who build it.
  • A named forward deployed lead owns the programme and is still there in month nine.
  • Priced per engineer, month to month.

Built to be left

  • Pipelines, prompts and infrastructure as code are yours, synced to your repository from day one.
  • Runbooks and an operations handbook at handover.
  • The exit is documented before go-live, and no residual contract holds the system.

The team

You get the people who build it.

Not the proposal of a partner you never meet. The people in the first call are the people on the project.

The people and the places

Our own people, our own office, our own camera.

Colleagues at the company summer party: the long table indoors, the roof terrace outside, the grill, and the group shots people asked for.

No stock photography and no client sites — a client's site is not ours to photograph. What is here is the office and the people in it.

  • Three colleagues on the office roof terrace in the evening sun, at the start of the summer party
  • The roof terrace filling up: colleagues standing in groups with drinks under a clear sky
  • The full length of the long table in the office, around fifteen colleagues eating in the afternoon light from the window wall
  • Colleagues talking across the long table in the office, the roof terrace visible through the glass behind them
  • Six colleagues outdoors on the terrace in low evening sun, drinks in hand
  • A colleague working the grill on the roof terrace, city rooftops behind him
  • Colleagues in conversation down both sides of the long table, plates and glasses between them
  • Colleagues laughing at the terrace table in the evening, the skyline behind the railing
  • The roof terrace seen from its far end, the office window wall on the left and colleagues standing along it
  • The long table at dusk, colleagues seated along it, the sun going down behind the terrace
  • Seven colleagues on the terrace after dark, fairy lights strung along the railing behind them
  • A colleague standing at the terrace railing at dusk, seen through the glass with the street lights beyond
  • Five colleagues indoors late in the evening, coloured party lights on the wall behind them

The Pexon group

Five specialist companies, one partner to deal with.

Mid-market companies do not have the procurement capacity to manage five vendors, so the group coordinates internally and you sign one contract.

This site is published by PEXON ROMANIA S.R.L., the group's AI engineering hub in Cluj-Napoca and the contracting party on everything offered here. The five below are the group's specialist practices; each is its own business and each can be engaged on its own.

  • Pexon Consulting

    Compute, data platforms and AI infrastructure for industrial and energy clients. The German company in the group, on its own domain and its own contracts.

    CLOUD, DATA AND AI · GRÜNWALD AND BERLIN

  • Promize Consulting

    SAP MM and procurement for utilities and energy suppliers.

    SAP MM · S/4HANA

  • Blue Batch

    Managed agentic workflow services for regulated smaller businesses.

    MANAGED SERVICE

  • Scaly Academy

    AI and automation training for engineering and operations teams.

    TRAINING

  • Inteliscience

    AI applied to CAD and engineering data, built around Siemens NX.

Careers

Forward deployed means you see it work.

You sit with the people whose job you are changing, you get access to real systems, and you own the outcome rather than a ticket. Senior only on client programmes; junior engineers work internally first.

There is no vacancies page here and this one deliberately lists no roles — a list of open positions is a statement of fact about hiring, and it goes stale faster than anyone updates it. If the work described on this page is the work you want, the address in the card below reaches us directly. Say what you would want to build.

How a first engagement runs

  1. A free first conversation: forty-five minutes on your data and where it stopped last time
  2. A scoped offer: €4,900 fixed for the two-week blueprint, transparent rates for anything after it
  3. Presentation and sign-off: we present the architecture to everyone who has to approve it
  4. Onboarding with the pod: the named engineers who will build it start in your environment

Common questions

What does forward deployed mean in practice?

Our engineers work inside your environment, on your systems, alongside your team, for the duration of the engagement. They are not producing a recommendation for someone else to build. The distinction matters because most AI projects fail in the integration, not in the model choice, and integration is only visible from inside.

Where is Pexon Romania based, and does that matter?

Cluj-Napoca, Romania — one of Europe's larger engineering talent pools, inside the EU and inside GDPR. It matters for two reasons: data never leaves the EU by default, and the cost structure lets us staff senior engineers on engagements that would not carry a Munich or Frankfurt rate.

Who am I actually contracting with, the group or one company?

One company. Pexon Group is five specialist companies covering cloud and AI, SAP, agentic workflows, training and industrial CAD, and roughly a hundred engineers across its offices. This site is published by PEXON ROMANIA S.R.L., the group's AI engineering hub, and that is the legal entity on the contract. Pexon Consulting GmbH is a different company in the same group, serving the DACH market in German on its own domain.

How do engagements start?

With a two-week fixed-price blueprint. We look at the data layer, the permission model and the systems the AI would have to reach, and you end with an architecture and a cost figure rather than a proposal. If the answer is that the project should not proceed, that is what the blueprint says.

Which law applies to the contract?

German law. That is deliberate: it is what procurement departments in our market are set up to review, and it removes a negotiation that otherwise adds weeks to a first engagement with a company registered in Romania.

How to start

Not a sales call. An architecture call.

Thirty minutes with the architect who would actually run the engagement.
