About Siemens

In over 200 countries worldwide, we create technologies that take society further. How? Through electrification, digitalization and automation. We’ve reduced congestion in cities by 20% using intelligent real-time traffic data; we’ve built offices using nothing but a 3D printer; we’ve created software that communicates with turbines in the middle of the ocean; and we helped NASA develop the Curiosity rover and land it safely on Mars.

Business Development Placement

With passion for technology, Siemens sets standards and creates sustainable value – for customers, for society and for each individual. Driven by innovation Siemens focuses on improving the lives of people in the areas of electrification, automation and digitalization. This is what we call Ingenuity for life.
