KHS GmbH
Job Summary
As a Development Engineer specializing in Automation and Motion Technology at KHS, you will be at the forefront of designing high-performance cleaning and pasteurization systems for the global beverage and liquid food industry. Your day-to-day involves developing hardware and software solutions, designing innovative concepts for development projects, and establishing internal standards for servo and drive technology.
