Industrial gases and healthcare solutions across 72 countries
Air Liquide operates a global manufacturing and distribution network for oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen serving 4+ million customers and patients. The tech stack reveals a transitional organization: heavy reliance on legacy ERP (SAP, moving to S/4HANA) and Excel alongside newer cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP) and Python-based data tooling (MLflow, Airflow). Active adoption of test-automation and CI/CD frameworks (Selenium, GitLab, Jenkins, CodePipeline) signals modernization of QA and deployment pipelines, while the engineering-heavy hiring profile (313 roles) and focus on plant efficiency and equipment reliability point to ongoing digital transformation of manufacturing operations.
