European sanitary products and bathroom ceramics manufacturer with 150-year heritage
Geberit is a 150-year-old public company and Europe's largest sanitary products manufacturer, operating 26 production facilities across 50 countries with 11,000 employees. The tech stack reveals a traditional manufacturing firm mid-digital transformation: enterprise CAD (CATIA, 3DExperience), simulation (Ansys, LS-DYNA), and embedded systems (STM32, RTOS, Bluetooth) sit alongside modernizing cloud infrastructure (Azure, Terraform, DevOps). Active hiring in engineering, manufacturing, and finance—with balanced mid/senior splits—and a dedicated Head IT Security role signal concurrent pushes toward process digitalization and operational standardization.
