Industrial measurement and automation hardware for process control across 50+ countries
Endress+Hauser manufactures measurement and automation devices for process industries, with 17,000+ employees across production on four continents. The hiring mix—engineering (234), sales (201), and manufacturing (91) roles active—combined with aggressive SAP modernization (adopting S/4HANA and SAP RISE while replacing SAP ECC) and concurrent product-launch projects, signals simultaneous pressure on legacy manufacturing systems and new-market expansion. Pain points center on production optimization and digitalization, consistent with a capital-intensive hardware business scaling both product lines and global operations.
