Gerdau Tech Stack
Large-scale steel producer with scrap recycling and charcoal operations across nine countries
Gerdau is a 122-year-old steel manufacturer operating at significant industrial scale: 30,000+ employees across nine countries, transforming 11 million tonnes of scrap annually into finished steel and specialty products. The tech stack reflects a hybrid manufacturing-and-enterprise operation—SAP ERP/S/4HANA and MES systems for production control, Python/SQL/Databricks/Spark for data analytics, and active transition away from SAP ECC toward modern cloud architecture. Hiring momentum is accelerating across manufacturing (50 open roles) and engineering (32), with junior and mid-level focus, suggesting capacity expansion and knowledge-transfer initiatives.
