About GigaGrid

The GigaGrid product team is developing a plug-and-play framework for monitoring and controlling the power grid. The GigaGrid framework consists of low-cost edge-computing nodes that can autonomously interface with geo-dispersed assets. The smart nodes can work in bandwidth-constrained environments, using flexible communication pathways to the GigaGrid backend. The GigaGrid product lines revolve around grid monitoring, control, and automation solutions that can help optimize grid operations as the adoption of distributed energy resources, such as solar, batteries, and electric vehicles, grows dramatically. The GigaGrid product team consists of engineers who are seeking creative, motivated team members to help them take innovative ideas and turn them into tangible solutions.
