About the company
This circular tech start-up in energy storage systems is located in the heart of the Gelderland energy region, near Arnhem in Duiven. In 2016, this sustainable tech company was founded by two brothers who saw a revolution in the sustainable energy transition. They came up with a way to develop energy storage systems built from old batteries that would otherwise be rejected. In the following years, great progresses were made; this sustainable company was awarded an Innovation Award, began hiring its first people and signed the first contracts with major manufacturers. Right now they are on the verge of a very big growth. The revenue has doubled tenfold from last year to this year and are expected to be around 30 million euros by 2023. This company has become an expert in recognizing valuable waste and responding to the growing demand for energy storage. The explosive growth of electric vehicles is also having a gigantic, positive impact on their own growth. This unique growth in sales and success means that the young, ambitious and highly motivated team, which is committed to high quality, will grow from 10 FTEs to 25 FTEs in the coming year, and you are badly needed as a Software Architect!
