ABOUT US
Our mission is to make industrial companies more sustainable. Samotics provides unique AI-driven solutions which enable industrial companies to significantly reduce energy waste, water pollution events and unplanned downtime.
Globally 300 million industrial electric motors account for 30% of all energy consumption. These motors face three critical challenges: unexpected failures, inefficient operations, and inadequate selection. By tackling these issues, our products lead industrial companies worldwide to become more efficient while reducing their environmental footprint.
Since our launch in 2015, we have grown rapidly, with over 100% annual revenue growth and a global footprint of high-profile industrial customers. We are a scale-up with more than 100 talented individuals, working together in an energetic environment where professionalism, an open atmosphere and cutting-edge technology thrive.
Are you excited to tackle critical challenges facing industry in the 21st century? So are we! Join us in making industrial companies more sustainable.

Pragmatic
Get things done We bring practical and scalable solutions to complex problems. We start small and iterate. We keep results front and center. We are flexible and open to change.
Open
Be respectfully honest We are honest with each other and with our customers. We foster an environment where we feel safe to speak up and explore. We invest in giving each other feedback. We know that asking for help and showing vulnerability are acts of strength.
Team players
Go far together We support each other. Always. We foster an inclusive atmosphere and we respect and value our differences. We work as one team, internally and with our customers. We trust each other to try new things and learn from our mistakes. And of course, we have fun and celebrate our achievements.
Diversity & inclusion
We strive to be a great workplace, where talented people feel at home. With teammates spanning 25 nationalities, we’re already reaping the benefits of a wide-angle view of the world. Among other things, we’re actively on the lookout for more female talent, for both our technical and commercial teams. Inclusivity was top of mind when we designed our new office. For instance, we have private spaces for breastfeeding, prayer or a post-lunchtime-workout shower. And we designed our office in such a way that both extroverted and introverted colleagues can find a productive place to work that suits their preferences.

IN THE SPOTLIGHT
Natalie Customer insights manager
"What I love most about working for Samotics is its perfect mix of strategy and digital, with the ability to create lasting impact not only within our company but for our customers. As a customer insights manager, I thoroughly enjoy helping our team and our customers drive growth, accelerate digitally, and achieve long-term reductions in energy and emissions.”
After earning two degrees focused on mathematics, statistics and the use of data in communication, Natalie started her career in consulting. But she quickly realized she wanted to have a more tangible impact. At Samotics, she gets to not only design new features, but also test, implement and scale them.

Bart Lead Software Engineering
“After four years, our product continues to motivate me. According to the IPCC, reducing the energy used by electric motors is a key component of combating climate change. And that’s exactly what we do—with a product that’s proven its effect and value, and with frontier technology.”
Bart is a senior software engineer with a background in aerospace engineering. He was one of the first members of the Samotics team, and thanks to the high pace of development at the company, is still as motivated to work on SAM4 as he was on day one.
