Industrial screening and separation solutions for water, energy, and mining
Johnson Screens manufactures engineered screening products for water treatment, mining, energy, and chemicals — a 120-year-old brand now owned by Aqseptence Group. The stack is heavily industrial: SAP, Siemens Step 7, AutoCAD, Inventor, and PLC controllers, anchored by Salesforce for CRM. Manufacturing dominates hiring (14 of 40 open roles), with engineering (12) and sales (4) scaling in parallel; the pain-point cluster — tooling changeovers, scrap reduction, cycle time, weld quality — reflects classic discrete manufacturing friction, not tech modernization.
Johnson Screens is a manufacturer of precision-engineered screening systems used across water wells, water treatment, mining, hydrocarbon processing, and food-and-beverage sectors. Products range from water intake screens to solids-separation equipment serving industrial and environmental applications globally. The company operates from New Brighton, Minnesota, and is part of the Aqseptence Group. Current operations span the United States and Germany, with active projects in pipeline construction systems, water treatment machine development, and product variant optimization. The business model centers on highly fabricated, application-specific products rather than commodity components.
Primary tools: SAP (ERP), Siemens Step 7 (PLC programming), AutoCAD/Inventor (design), Salesforce (CRM), and Microsoft Office. Stack reflects industrial manufacturing operations rather than software development.
