Manufacturing automation and GMP IT for life sciences production systems
SimoTech designs and operates process automation systems for multinational life-sciences manufacturers, with expertise spanning DCS, MES, PLC, SCADA, and data historian platforms. The engineering-heavy hiring mix (7 of 11 active roles) focused on senior and lead positions reflects both scaling complexity and a shift toward internal system modernization — active projects span MES implementation, DeltaV integration, legacy BAS upgrades, and lab equipment integration, while pain points cluster around DCS-to-MES integration and capital project delivery timelines.
SimoTech is a manufacturing automation and IT services provider founded in 2011, headquartered in Cork, Ireland, with 51–200 employees. They serve leading multinational life sciences organizations, designing, building, and operating critical process automation systems for pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturing. The company's core capabilities include process automation design, regulatory compliance (GMP, ISO 9001:2015), project management, and integration of control systems (DeltaV, Rockwell ControlLogix, ABB, Emerson platforms) with manufacturing execution systems. Beyond automation, they offer GMP IT solutions, data historian implementation, and optimization of complex manufacturing infrastructure. Recent hiring acceleration is concentrated in Canada, with roles predominantly in engineering seniority levels.
SimoTech's stack includes DeltaV, DCS, SCADA, MES, PLC platforms (Rockwell ControlLogix, CompactLogix, ABB), data historians, and industrial protocols (MODBUS, RS-232, TCP/IP). They also use Kafka and ActiveMQ for messaging, and LabVantage for lab systems.
Active projects include MES implementation, DeltaV integration, legacy BAS system upgrades, laboratory system upgrades, GMP facility SOP development, and ISO 9001:2015 quality management system improvement.
