Senior MES Specialist

On-site Indjija, Serbia

Are you passionate about using digital technology to solve real manufacturing challenges and create value for the people working on the shop floor? Then join our digitalization journey and help shape how manufacturing works across Grundfos' global production footprint.

As our new Senior MES Specialist, you will represent manufacturing in our global Manufacturing Execution System (MES) program, turning production needs into digital solutions and helping develop and deploy our global MES platform.

What you will be doing

As part of Digital Architecture within Advanced Manufacturing Engineering (AME), you will join an agile, international MES team working across manufacturing, Quality, Supply Chain and IT.

Your main responsibilities include:

  • Understand manufacturing needs and translate them into requirements and user stories focused on business value
  • Contribute to designing, developing, testing and implementing MES solutions and related business processes.
  • Work across MES and interfacing solutions including ERP, PLM, equipment integration and master data.
  • Support line assessments and global deployments, connecting solution knowledge with shop-floor needs.
  • Help ensure solutions follow our global template while identifying new requirements for further development.
  • Collaborate with colleagues, production plants, deployment teams and other digitalization initiatives around the world.

What makes you a great fit

There is no single career path into this role. You might already work with MES, or your experience could come from manufacturing digitalization, IT/OT, automation or production technology. What matters is your understanding of manufacturing, your curiosity about technology and your ability to turn needs into practical solutions.

  • Experience with MES, manufacturing digitalization, IT/OT, automation or production technology
  • Understanding of manufacturing processes and shop-floor environments
  • Experience translating business or manufacturing needs into digital solutions
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills across business and technical teams
  • Professional proficiency in English

It is a plus, not a requirement, if you have experience with enterprise MES deployments, Siemens Opcenter, SAP ERP Operations, PLM, equipment integration, master data or agile ways of working.

You do not need to meet every qualification to be successful in this role. If this opportunity excites you and you believe your experience can contribute to our MES journey, we encourage you to apply.

Why you will love working here

You'll join a supportive, international environment where different perspectives are valued and where you can influence solutions used across our global manufacturing network. Our agile and flat way of working gives you ownership, room to contribute ideas and opportunities to grow your expertise.

We are inclusive. Celebrating and valuing our differences helps us see possibilities where others can't, and we welcome applications from all abilities, experiences and backgrounds.

The position is based at our Indjija office, with approximately 20 days of travel per year.
