The Industrial Engineer supports the Warehouse Automation & Operational Technology (AOT) agenda by helping design, validate, and integrate advanced OT and automation solutions that power high-performance warehouses across the integral network.
Working within the AOT engineering community, the role collaborates cross-functionally to understand operational needs, shape automation concepts, generate and validate technical scope of work, and lead engineering validation of automation tenders and vendor proposals.
The position combines hands-on warehouse/automation knowledge with strong analytical and collaboration skills to deliver reliable, scalable, and operationally relevant technology solutions in a fast-moving, global environment.
Technical Knowledge
• Familiar with warehouse and logistics operational processes and material handling / automation environments (sorters, PTL, AGV/AMR, AS/RS, robotics).
• Familiar with WCS/WES/WMS, MES, SCADA, HMI concepts and industrial monitoring tools.
• Familiar with automation–warehouse integration principles (ISA-95 communication guidelines).
• Able to interpret layouts, process flows, and technical drawings.
Required qualification
• Understanding of end-to-end warehouse operational flows (inbound, storage, picking, etc.) and physical cargo flow, and the ability to translate them into automation concepts, solution designs,



and system integration requirements.
• Understanding of operational and functional KPIs, using equipment performance in logistics environments to inform and validate solution design decisions.
• Ability to define and size the infrastructure required to enable warehouse operations as part of the solution design — including OT devices, network, automation systems, and servers.
• Understanding of network architecture (WAN, WLAN, LAN), warehouse OT devices (handheld devices, printers, RFID, etc.), and AOT infrastructure, and how they fit within an end-to-end technical concept design.
• Knowledge of the automation technologies available to digitise and automate operational processes, with the ability to assess their fit and recommend the right solution for each use case.
• Familiarity with Warehouse Management Software (WMS), Control Systems (WCS, WES, MES), and monitoring solutions (SCADA, HMI), and how they integrate across the warehouse technology stack.
• Knowledge of logistics processes, automation solutions, industry trends, and relevant innovations, applied to design scalable, future-ready solutions.
• Proven experience designing, pricing, and implementing warehouse automation solutions — including automated sortation systems, Pick-to-Light (PTL), AGVs, AMRs, and AS/RS, among others.
