Heavy-duty firefighting vehicles and emergency response equipment manufacturer
Rosenbauer America manufactures custom firefighting vehicles and emergency response apparatus for North American fire departments. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward design (SolidWorks), project management (Jira, Confluence, Smartsheet), and shop-floor execution — a signature profile for capital equipment OEMs. Hiring is concentrated in manufacturing roles (37 of 52 active openings) with a secondary push in engineering, suggesting a production scaling phase while tackling documented pain points around welding efficiency, production processes, and engineering change coordination.
