Precision sensing and measurement technologies for industrial and aerospace applications
VPG manufactures precision measurement sensors for automotive, aerospace, and medical equipment — a hardware-heavy business reflected in its stack (CAD tools: SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Altium; manufacturing: CNC, QAD, SAP; analytics: Snowflake, Python). Current hiring focuses overwhelmingly on manufacturing (46 roles) and sales (37 roles) against a smaller engineering footprint (17 roles), signaling scaling of production and commercial execution rather than product innovation. Active projects around adhesive formulations and reverse logistics suggest supply-chain optimization and materials science as near-term growth levers.
VPG is a publicly traded precision measurement company operating at 1,000–5,000 employees, headquartered in Malvern, PA, with hiring across nine countries including the US, UK, Germany, Israel, Japan, South Korea, and India. The company designs and manufactures sensors for demanding applications in automotive safety systems, aerospace, medical diagnostics, and consumer electronics. Core operational focus areas include new adhesive systems, manufacturing process optimization, raw material sourcing, and expanding sales of its Gleeble product line. The technology stack spans CAD and design automation (SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Altium), enterprise resource planning (SAP, QAD, Oracle), CRM (Salesforce), and modern data infrastructure (Snowflake, AWS, Python).
VPG uses SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and Altium for design; SAP, QAD, and Oracle for ERP; Salesforce for CRM; Snowflake and Python for analytics; and AWS for cloud infrastructure. Microsoft Office, SharePoint, ServiceNow, and Jira support operations.
