About Withthegrid

Join our fast-growing scale-up in the cleantech sector! Withthegrid offers an extraordinary opportunity for a talented and driven technical solution engineer.

We serve grid operators such as Stedin, TenneT and Gasunie with our cloud asset monitoring platform. IoT sensors connect to the platform and generate data about the state of the grid. Our platform detects deviations and improves maintenance processes through notifications with a user-friendly interface.

We also work for producers of renewable energy, such as solar energy, wind energy and batteries. They use the Withthegrid Teleport gateway to add flexibility to the energy system and control their assets in a safe and reliable manner. For example, the Teleport is in the largest battery in the Netherlands, but also on the solar roof of farmers.
