Global battery manufacturer scaling production and factory automation
Clarios operates a massive manufacturing footprint producing over 150 million batteries annually—one-third of global industry output. The tech stack reflects a capital-intensive, quality-critical operation: CAD (AutoCAD, SolidWorks), simulation (ANSYS, LS-DYNA), compliance frameworks (IATF 16949, ISO 26262), and quality methods (FMEA, SPC, APQP). Active adoption of SAP BTP, Maximo, and Power BI signals a shift toward predictive maintenance and real-time production visibility—directly aligned with stated priorities around downtime reduction and OEE improvement. The hiring mix is heavily weighted to manufacturing and engineering roles across 14 countries, with active projects centered on next-generation factory lines and smart factory integration.
