Why Work at Sigma Defense?
Hear from members of our team about our company culture and vision.
Veterans
Sigma Defense is a veteran-owned company, and 50% of our employees are former service members. Hiring veterans has brought us some of the brightest minds in our field. Their leadership, adaptability, resilience, rigor and mission focus make us stronger as an organization—and as a mission partner to the DoD.
While we’re committed to hiring and retaining veterans, we also believe in helping them thrive—inside and outside the workplace. Sigma Defense offers continued education, leadership opportunities and the chance for all employees to support veteran-specific causes like Gold Star Families, VETSolutions, The Veterans Village of San Diego, and more.
“We are proud of the fact that over 50% of our employees are veterans. They bring a focus on mission objectives and understanding of the battlefield environment that is coupled with an ability to perform under pressure and a level of adaptability that is truly unique.”
— Matt Jones, Sigma Defense CEO
