Medical devices for maternal and infant care, hospitals, and clinical settings
Medela manufactures breast milk feeding products and healthcare solutions across maternal, infant, and hospital care. The company is sales-driven (13 of 16 active roles are sales), with current hiring concentrated in Poland, the United States, and Canada at senior and mid levels—matching aggressive execution around WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) contracting, pricing programs, and Amazon partnership strategy. Pain points cluster around reimbursement, public sector bid complexity, and channel optimization, suggesting active repositioning in government procurement and retail channels.
Medela is a Swiss medical device manufacturer founded in 1961, privately held and family-owned, with over 1,500 employees across 20 subsidiaries in Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Australia. The company serves millions of customers globally through three core product areas: breast milk feeding devices, hospital healthcare solutions, and clinical education services. Operations span production and warehouse facilities in Switzerland, the United States, and China, with distribution in over 70 countries. The current executive team includes Chairman Michael Larsson and CEO Thomas Golücke (since 2024). Technology infrastructure relies on SAP for operations, Salesforce for sales execution, and AWS-based marketing platforms (Amazon DSP, Amazon Marketing Cloud).
Medela uses Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), Outlook, Power BI for analytics, SAP for enterprise resource planning, Salesforce for CRM, and AWS-based advertising platforms including Amazon DSP and Amazon Marketing Cloud.
