Plastic bottling and rigid packaging manufacturer with 20 North American production plants
Silgan Plastics operates a vertically integrated plastic packaging business spanning design, tooling, and high-volume manufacturing across North America. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward manufacturing execution systems (Rockwell Automation, Allen-Bradley) and enterprise resource planning (Oracle ERP, Dynamics 365), with recent adoption signals around cloud infrastructure (Azure DevOps) — typical for legacy industrial operators modernizing plant-floor visibility and supply-chain planning. Current hiring focuses on manufacturing floor optimization and operational leadership, aligned with stated pain points around labor efficiency and capacity planning.
