Who we are
We develop software to radically simplify learning from industrial data, so that production companies can streamline their processes and improve their bottom line.
Whether our clients, from large enterprises to local production sites, want to know what’s happening on the production floor in real-time, look back in the past, reduce downtime, improve processes or save energy: we’ve got them covered with an integrated platform that is built to last.

One more thing…
Don’t meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. At Factry we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway.
