KION Group is a German company created in 2006 when Linde separated its materials handling division, and it is now one of the largest makers of forklift trucks and warehouse automation systems in the world. Its industrial truck business sells under the Linde and STILL brands across Europe and beyond, while Dematic supplies the conveyors, robotics, storage systems and control software behind large automated distribution centres. Headquartered in Frankfurt and listed there, it earns a growing share of revenue from service and from software rather than from equipment sales alone.

- Experience with Agile and Scrum methodologies for software development.
- Proficiency in version control systems such as Git.
- Strong background in database design and management (Oracle, PostgreSQL)
- Knowledge of cloud computing platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud)
- Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and troubleshooting skills.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across teams.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience in industrial automation, supply chain, or material handling industries.
- Hands-on experience with warehouse software (WMS, WIS, or WCS) and real-time system integration.
- Experience with frontend development using frameworks like QT or Angular.
- Strong understanding of cybersecurity best practices in software development.
- Proven ability to lead technical projects from conception to deployment.
Desired Strengths:
- Technical Leadership: Ability to guide and mentor engineering teams while maintaining hands-on development expertise.
- Strategic Thinking: Ability to align technical solutions with business objectives and drive innovation.
