DEIN IMPACT BEI UMH
Hi, Alex and Jeremy here from UMH!
Seven years ago, we started a small system integration and boutique consulting company to help manufacturers digitize their production lines. We installed sensors on machines, built dashboards for production managers, and used AI to analyze product quality - all to improve efficiency, quality, and resource use.
Pretty quickly, we hit the same wall every project seems to hit: lack of access to clean, structured, and contextualized data. Every factory had data - but it was fragmented, inconsistent, and locked inside proprietary systems. There was no open, scalable foundation to build on.
So four years ago, we switched gears and founded United Manufacturing Hub, an open-source industrial data management platform that helps factories collect, structure, and share production data at scale.
Today, companies like HiPP, MAHLE, and EDEKA use UMH to connect their shop floors, and we’re backed by a 1,000-people-strong community and international venture capital investors who share our belief that industrial data should be open.
Our goal is simple: Build the data foundation every factory in the world can run on - to make manufacturing faster, smarter, and more sustainable.
You’ll love this if you want to:
* Turn cold leads into real conversations - and real conversations into “Wait, this actually solves my problem.” moments.
* Learn how to sell something deeply technical and genuinely useful - not fluff, not vaporware.
* Work directly with the founders and account executives to test ideas, break things, and double down on what works.
* See how modern industrial sales actually works - combining outbound, master cold calling and combine with open-source adoption
* Be part of a small, fast-moving team that ships, learns, and wins faster than anyone expects in manufacturing.
