gridX remote jobs and company guide

At the heart of gridX's mission is the drive to revolutionize the energy industry, making 100% renewable energy reliable and affordable for everyone. This ambition began as an idea between two friends, David Balensiefen and Andreas Booke, while cycling through Ecuador in 2015. By May 2016, with the addition of Joel Hermanns and an EXIST scholarship, gridX was officially founded. The company's culture is built on the belief that the energy transition requires large-scale use of renewable energies, and they are dedicated to building the necessary infrastructure. They aim to transform today's unresponsive, legacy energy systems by introducing smart, digital solutions to the sector. This focus on innovation is driven by a team of talented and experienced specialists hailing from leading companies and renowned universities, all united by a common goal: to decrease carbon emissions and build a sustainable energy system for the future.

gridX fosters an agile working environment and a family-like culture, striving to make work exciting, rewarding, and a place where employees feel inspired by the impact of their contributions. The company values the freedom to explore new ideas, learn from like-minded colleagues, and maintain a close-knit team despite having offices in both Aachen (their birthplace) and Munich. Regular virtual and in-person events bridge the geographical distance, reinforcing their 'one team' philosophy. Transparency is key, not just in their solutions but also in their internal processes, including a clear application procedure. The company is organized into four core teams: Growth, responsible for customer interactions; Development, which builds their product from hardware to cloud interfaces; Product, which translates the company vision into a roadmap; and Operations, which keeps the company running smoothly. This collaborative and purpose-driven culture is what gridX believes is the 'magic sauce' behind their work, attracting individuals passionate about accelerating the energy transition and shaping how people will use energy in the years to come. Their commitment extends to building a strong ecosystem of partners, recognizing that collaboration is essential to achieving their ambitious goals in the rapidly evolving energy landscape.
