Traffic management systems and infrastructure for cities and transport networks
SWARCO manufactures and integrates traffic management infrastructure—traffic lights, variable message signs, road markings, and parking systems—deployed across 80 countries. The tech stack reveals a manufacturing and systems-integration business: embedded control (PLC, SCADA, Siemens, Schneider Electric), simulation (VISSIM), CAD/design (AutoCAD, Inventor), and enterprise infrastructure (SAP, Windows, Linux). Hiring is heavily weighted toward engineering (152 roles) with active project work spanning traffic signal installation, system configuration, and infrastructure maintenance, signaling continued expansion in hardware deployment and on-site integration rather than pure software plays.
Notable leadership hires: Lead Electrical Engineer, Tender Lead, Head of Execution
