Custom packaging automation equipment for pharma, medical, and food manufacturers
Serpa designs and builds cartoners, case packers, palletizers, and robotic handling systems for Fortune 1000 manufacturers. The hiring surge is skewed heavily toward sales (9 open roles) and support (5), with only one engineering position — typical of a hardware/integration company in growth mode where installation, customization, and customer success matter more than product development velocity. Internal projects focus on standardizing quality, shortening closing cycles, and reducing rework, suggesting operational scaling challenges as volume grows.
