Heraeus is a family-owned conglomerate with €29.4B in annual revenue, spanning 15 operating companies across metals recycling, healthcare devices, semiconductor materials, and specialty chemicals. The tech stack reveals a heavily integrated SAP ecosystem (ERP, S/4HANA, EWM, QM) with manufacturing systems (PLC, CMMS, Mastercam) and quality tools (LabVIEW, Minitab, ICP-MS), indicating mature production and supply-chain operations. Hiring velocity is accelerating across manufacturing (27 open roles) and engineering (26), with heavy focus on mid-to-senior levels, while active projects center on EHS compliance (ISO 14001, training programs) and production optimization — suggesting internal operational scaling rather than major product pivots.
