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 global 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, integral 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.
