Industrial Systems Engineer (f/m/d) – Supplier Development

About the Role

Location: Germany

Company: Siemens Energy Global GmbH & Co. KG

Organization: EVP Global Functions

Business Unit: Strategic Procurement

Full-time position for a Mid-level Professional.

A Snapshot of Your Day

You will strengthen the industrial systems of Siemens Energy’s global supply base, particularly in high‑complexity manufacturing environments. This role focuses on supplier production systems and capability building, not site‑based Industrial Engineering support or supplier quality work centered on inspections, audits, or corrective action loops. You will diagnose production systems (capacity, flow, stability, constraints) and implement targeted improvements, translating successful practices into repeatable methods for others.

How You’ll Make an Impact

• Diagnose supplier production systems (flow, capacity, constraints, stability) and identify root causes of system‑level gaps.
• Drive targeted improvements in throughput, lead time, and robustness through bottleneck resolution and system‑level countermeasures.
• Strengthen supplier capability through robust operating routines (system visibility, review cadence, escalation logic, structured problem solving).
• Translate enterprise priorities into sequenced supplier development initiatives with clear baselines and measurable outcomes.
• Convert hands‑on improvement experience into standard work, playbooks, and training that enable repeatability across teams.
• Operate across business areas in a matrix environment, influencing stakeholders and enabling sustained adoption through technical credibility.

What You Bring

• Degree in Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Production Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering.
• Strong experience improving production systems in high‑complexity industrial supplier manufacturing environments.
• Deep systems thinking grounded in flow, capacity, constraints, variability, and stability.
• Proven ability to diagnose and improve real production systems using data, analytics, and emerging digital/AI‑based tools to support decisions and performance discussions, not just track or report outcomes.
• Experience translating hands‑on work into repeatable methods (standard work, routines, templates, playbooks) to enable others via coaching and training.
• Ability to influence across functions without direct authority; comfortable operating in ambiguous, cross‑functional environments and willing to travel internationally up to 30%.

About the Team

You will be part of the global Supplier Development function within Strategic Procurement at Siemens Energy, responsible for strengthening supplier capability as a strategic lever for business performance and long‑term competitiveness. The team operates globally, partnering closely with Procurement, Engineering, Quality, and Operations, and focuses on enabling the broader organization through structured methods and approaches.

Benefits

• Attractive remuneration package in line with the market.

• Flexible and remote work options with inspiring offices for collaboration and creativity.
• Professional and personal development programs and learning materials.
