Food processing machinery with integrated control systems and packaging lines
Heat and Control designs and manufactures customized process and packaging equipment for food producers, with a tech stack rooted in industrial automation (Siemens S7, Allen-Bradley, SCADA, PLC). The engineering-led hiring mix — 7 of 11 active roles — combined with active projects in electrical control system design and training program development signals internal scaling around skill gaps in a team that has historically been tightly coupled to on-site commissioning and field service.
Heat and Control manufactures integrated process and packaging lines for food manufacturers, covering cooking, seasoning, coating, conveying, inspection, and packing systems. Founded in 1950, the company operates 12 manufacturing and warehouse facilities, 10 test centers, and over 30 offices globally, with technical and field service teams embedded across regions. Solutions span snacks, prepared foods, meat, seafood, and produce categories. The business model combines custom engineering and design with installation, commissioning, user training, and after-sales service — a capital-equipment sales cycle with ongoing field dependencies.
Siemens S7 and TIA Portal, Allen-Bradley, Rockwell Automation, SCADA, PLC, HMI, and WinCC Flexible. CAD tools include AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor; ERP is SAP.
Expanding the electrical control systems team, maintaining cost control, streamlining sales processes, and increasing sales velocity — all reflected in active projects on training programs and sales process work.
