Flowthrough SL is a newly founded software consulting company in Málaga, Spain. We develop software for industrial customers, from the connection to the machines and control systems to data-driven and AI applications. We see ourselves as a long-term development partner for our customers, not as a short-term supplier, and we are growing our team in Málaga.

About the project

Modern production lines are run by software: operators control and monitor large machinery, process orders, react to alarms and track quality in real time. Our customer, a leading international machine builder, does this today with several generations of control systems. Together with them, we are bringing these into one modular SCADA platform in a multi-year program for their entire machine portfolio, open to third-party machines, ready for data-driven and AI applications, and built to last for the next decade and beyond.

The international project team in Spain, Germany and China is defining this platform right now, and the key technical decisions are still ahead of us.

Your Mission

As a Project Manager (m/f/x) in our new office in Málaga, you will lead this project from its pre-development phase into full product development and grow with the program over the following years.
