Associate Engineer

Company: Emerson
Location: Eden Prairie
Posted on: March 16, 2023

Job Description:

Everyone wants fresh, tasty, and healthy food, and effective and available medicines. Frequently these goods are harvested or created far away from where they are consumed, across the country or even across the world. Keeping them safe, environmentally controlled, and secure while transporting them throughout their journey is a complicated and complex problem, involving a tremendous amount of computing power, sensors, radios, mobile devices, IoT, cloud, and more.
At Emerson, we call this transportation system our Cold Chain, stretching across the entire lifecycle of food and medicines. It starts when food is harvested or vaccines manufactured, and goes through the shipping of goods worldwide, all the way to your local store shelves or doctor's office.
We do not produce, move, store, or sell food directly, but we serve the businesses that do. Our team's mission each day is to 1) efficiently keep food and medicines fresh and safe, 2) track each step 3) make it easy for our customers, 4) and do it in the most environmentally sustainable way possible. We believe if we do these four things, and do them well, we can get food and medicines to those who need them around the globe.
