What Noser Engineering AG does

Noser Engineering AG is a Swiss information technology and software engineering services company headquartered in Winterthur and operating across seven locations in Switzerland (Basel, Bern, Luzern, Rheintal, Thun, Winterthur) and Germany (Munich). Founded in 1984, the company delivers custom software and hardware engineering projects under the service lines Individual SW/HW Solutions, Managed Capacity (staff augmentation), Consulting, and Maintenance & Support, covering IoT, Embedded Systems, Mobile, Cloud, Web, Hardware Design, and Desktop applications. Core technology delivery is anchored on certified partnerships with Microsoft (Solution Partner for Data & AI and Digital & App Innovation on Azure) and AWS, with adjacent technology relationships to National Instruments, Black Duck, Threema, ONEKEY, and Procadesign.

The company is positioned as the flagship engineering services entity within Noser Group, a Swiss ICT group of eight companies and 600+ employees; access to 700+ specialists across the group network is positioned as a core differentiator alongside local DACH presence. Revenue mechanics are predominantly professional services and managed services on a project/contract basis, with recently introduced packaged AI offerings (AI workshops at CHF 3,000, AI-Expertise-as-a-service from CHF 5,000, a GenAI entry chatbot at CHF 9,900, and a compliance/vulnerability analysis at CHF 1,000) providing lower-friction entry points alongside traditional T&M engagements. Group-level revenue was CHF 120 million in 2020 against 479 Swiss full-time positions.

Customer concentration is distributed across enterprise and public-sector verticals including manufacturing and industry (Midor, Schurter, Dormakaba, ABB Schweiz), energy (CKW), building technology (Siemens Schweiz), transportation (PostAuto Schweiz), defense (armasuisse W+T), healthcare (Curaden, SIVA Health, Autexis), and public administration (Kanton Luzern, Zürichoberland Tourismus). Go-to-market is enterprise field sales via dedicated account managers across the seven offices, supported by content marketing (TechCast, WebCast, TechBlog), industry events (.NET Day Switzerland, Engineers' Day, Digital Winterthur), and partner ecosystems (Swico, Swiss Made Software, Technopark Luzern). Recognized as a Top 10 IT employer in Switzerland and ranked 2nd in Netzwoche's Digitalranking across 2019-2021, Noser Engineering also holds a 2025 EcoVadis Bronze sustainability medal and a Silver award at the Best of Swiss Web Award 2025.
