EMEA Mechanical Project Engineer

The core task of the EMEA Case Conveyor Systems team is the implementation of project-specific conveyor systems in intralogistics. The focus is on container and light unit load conveyor technology. The team uses Dematic standard belt and roller conveyor technology, special conveyor designs, and purchased components. The spectrum of purchased components ranges from standard catalog items to complex machines. Cross‑departmental cooperation with the specialist departments of Project Delivery, Hardware Controls, Structural Engineering, Software Controls, Solution Development, Technical Purchasing, CE Compliance, Manufacturing, and Installation rounds out the range of tasks. The project scope and deadline situation determine the number of team members involved.
