Custom process automation and control systems for pharma, biotech, and food production
SIGMA designs and deploys custom automation systems for regulated industries—pharma, biotech, food & beverage, and water treatment. The stack is Siemens-centric (SIMATIC PCS7, TIA Portal, OPC UA) paired with C#, Python, and MATLAB, indicating a mix of control-layer engineering and data/analytics work. Hiring is minimal (1 role in 30 days) but senior-heavy (10 of 18 engineering positions), suggesting a mature, project-delivery-focused team rather than a growth-stage startup.
SIGMA Process & Automation GmbH, based in Goldbach, Bayern, builds custom process automation and control systems for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, chemical, food & beverage, and water treatment sectors. The company has operated since 2001 and became part of the ZETA Group in 2022, expanding pharma and biotech capabilities through partnership. Core services span system design, process control programming, instrumentation, plant commissioning, and ongoing maintenance—all in compliance-heavy environments (GxP, cyber resilience, data security). The engineering-dominant headcount reflects a project-delivery model where each engagement involves custom system qualification and deployment at customer sites.
