Precision measurement and additive manufacturing for industrial and healthcare applications
Renishaw is a £691m revenue manufacturing company split across metrology (precision measurement, encoders, calibration) and additive manufacturing (industrial 3D metal printing). The hiring surge is heavily weighted toward engineering and legal—8 and 5 roles respectively—while the project backlog (global ERP migration, Dynamics 365 rollout, privacy compliance, security automation) and pain points (legacy process transition, supply chain risk, regulatory compliance) reveal an organization scaling operational infrastructure to support growth across 36 countries. Stack is industrial-focused: C#, LabVIEW, PLC, CNC, CAD, with recent adoption of Dynamics 365 and CI/CD pipelines.
