THE PROCESS LAB
We create industrial automation technology never seen before.
Our Research
Agentic Automation Toolchain
Software engineering looks fundamentally different today — agentic programming has dramatically transformed developer experience and productivity. Yet automation engineers are still stuck developing and debugging projects on legacy Windows software and outdated hardware. This has to change.
We're building a full suite of IEC 61131-3 compatible tools — open source, built for the Agentic Automation era.
AI Optimization
Replacing the legacy stack of MPC / PID + human operators with reinforcement learning to deliver closed-loop optimization at the process unit level.
APC + PID + human operators have ruled process industry control for nearly a century. The limits are clear: linear models, hand-crafted tuning, no adaptation to operating drift, and punishing deployment and maintenance costs.
We're building the next generation of unit-level optimization control with RL — toward chemical production that is truly autonomous and self-optimizing.
Join Us
As one of the most ambitious organizations in industry, we offer multiple on-site locations, remote opportunities, and problems complex enough to be worth your time. Please include your portfolio along with your resume when applying.

Video Motion Effect Designer
What you'll do
- Create visually engaging videos to promote SIB’s next-generation industrial software.
- Unlike traditional industrial software marketing that relies on sweeping narratives and live factory footage, we aim to showcase specific product features through creativity, motion graphics, and visual effects.
- You will work mainly on motion graphics (MG) videos and promotional films, delivering professional and impactful effects.
- Collaborate with internal tech experts, visual designers, and external vendors—owning the full journey from raw footage(eg. real demo recordings and factory footage) to final release.
About you
- You're passionate about the art of video.
- You understand how to tell a story through short-form commercial videos, MG animations, PVs, and TVCs.
- You're curious about technology and the industrial world.
What we're looking for
- Proficient in motion design and VFX tools such as After Effects (required), familiar with Premiere, DaVinci, or other common post-production tools.
- Bonus: Skills in filming, editing, and video effects—able to wear multiple hats when needed.
- Bonus: Experience with 3D tools like Blender or C4D.
- Engineering background or experience in industrial/technology-related projects preferred.
Very Strong Automation Engineer
What you'll do
- Help us rethink how factories are programmed—like software, not like legacy PLCs or configuration tools.
- Build the next generation of industrial control systems across runtime, tooling, IDE, communication, and web interfaces.
About you
- You're genuinely excited by the idea of reinventing how the physical world is programmed.
- You care about computers, programming languages, systems, or developer tools—not just building ordinary apps.
- You want to work on something fundamental, ambitious, and deeply technical.
What we're looking for
- Must have designed interesting PLC/DCS programs, with hands-on experience in at least one of Codesys, TIA, or TwinCAT.
- Must have designed interesting production lines or process workflows.
- Strong programming fundamentals and clear curiosity about how systems really work.
- Willingness to explore cross-layer problems spanning software, control, communication, and tooling.
- Bonus: Exposure to RTOS, serial communication, EtherCAT, PLCs, compilers, IDEs, or web development.
AIO Engineer
What you'll do
- Build autonomous optimization systems for the real world — connecting AI, control, and process intelligence.
- Prototype and tune reinforcement learning, model-predictive control, or hybrid physics-ML algorithms.
About you
- You’re an ML/Control engineer who wants your models to touch the real world.
- You enjoy writing code that both trains and controls.
- You’re excited by the challenge of turning industrial data into autonomy.
What we're looking for
- Familiar with chemical process control, with a chemical engineering background, and has designed interesting DCS programs and controllers.
- Strong foundation in ML / optimization — e.g., reinforcement learning, MPC, system identification, or Bayesian methods.
- Understanding of control theory, process systems, or simulation environments is a plus.
- Experience with real-time data or streaming frameworks (MQTT, OPC-UA, Kafka, etc.) is a plus.
