Global lighting manufacturer with IoT-enabled solutions across 90+ countries
Zumtobel Group manufactures and designs lighting systems for commercial and industrial applications, operating eight plants across 90+ countries with 5,300 employees. The tech stack reflects a traditional manufacturing enterprise in transition: heavy SAP and Oracle backbone alongside modern cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, Snowflake, Databricks) and streaming architecture (Kafka, Dataflow). Active adoption of SAP S/4HANA signals a broader ERP modernization. Hiring momentum is concentrated in sales and support roles, aligned with pain points around customer complaint handling and technician training—suggesting a push to scale customer-facing operations globally.
