Our client is a fast-growing, yet established independent software company with roots in engineering and a big vision: to make factories smarter, faster, and more agile. What started almost five decades ago as a small engineering office has grown into a global business with operations across Europe, Asia, and North America.

Their core platform is designed specifically for manufacturers and goes way beyond what traditional systems offer. It supports everything from planning and resource management to operator guidance, real-time data capture, and process optimisation.

Why join?

• 401(k) retirement plan
• Generous PTO
• Comprehensive life insurance
• Ongoing training and clear progression paths

What will your day to day look like?

• Guiding internal implementation teams
• Overseeing system configuration
• Providing training and support to ensure smooth adoption of new systems

• Helping to close knowledge gaps in client operations and connect disconnected processes

There’s also plenty of room for growth - whether you want to lead more complex projects, develop new features with the product team, or step into a strategic advisory role over time.
