Develop what will be important tomorrow.  When it comes to manufacturing products on a large scale, our Manufacturing Management first clarifies with manufacturing, engineering and sales: "Is that even possible? And if so, how and at what price?" To do this, you always look at projects from many perspectives. If production is running, the task is not over: Together with interface partners, we assume the entire responsibility for the output, question and coordinate until the last minute of production. As a link between engineering and sales, you are responsible for new technologies and never lose sight of the big picture. And we? Promote your talent and enthusiasm through space for your own decisions and a trusting and collegial cooperation. On top of that, a wide range of opportunities for personal development awaits you, also internationally.    The Global Manufacturing Excellence team is the interface between all process automation plants within Siemens. Our task is to act as a link to ensure that the plants can work as optimally as possible. To this end, our cross-functional team is active in the areas of lean, supply chain management, footprint and, of course, digitization. We try to shape the world of tomorrow with agile methods and cultural changes in close cooperation with our international network of plants.
