Ocado Group is an equal opportunities employer and as such makes every effort to ensure that all potential employees are treated fairly and equally, regardless of their sex, sexual orientation, marital status, race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin, religion or belief, age, or disability or union membership status.
About Us
Ocado Technology’s Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS) teams are at the cutting-edge of our technology engineering business. From the design and manufacture of the most state-of-the-art products in the business, to their delivery into our multi-million pound Customer Fulfilment Centres (CFCs) across the globe, our bespoke electrical and mechanical development projects are pushing the boundaries of innovation and automation.
Imagine some of the challenges of developing an ultra high throughput system that is the size of 4 football pitches. Or the challenges of tolerance, scale, static and dynamic loads, manufacturing and rapid deployment for systems of this scale. Think of the challenges of developing a system with all of these requirements that must be “fit and forget” over a 20 year period of 24/7 use. And then imagine achieving all of this within a system that must remain safe and operational after an earthquake.
If you like challenges, and are looking to work on innovative solutions to problems that have never been solved within a fast paced, exciting organisation, then we’d love to hear from you.
About the Role
PLM is used to manage all the product defining data assets throughout the life of a part in terms of its configuration from. This is managed through a PLM system that connects applications and tools that manage the datasets that are either product defining or part data across all of these different configuration states.
All processes required to create the PLM system are connected through a Digital Thread closed loop between physical and digital domains, transforming how products are engineered, manufactured, serviced & retired.
The Digital thread seeks to create a single source of truth by following a single set of related data as it weaves in and out of business processes and functions to enable continuity and accessibility.
