Oil and Gas St.-Denis, Île-de-France 10,001+ employees Founded 2008 Privately Held

GRDF operates the continent's largest gas distribution infrastructure—207,000 km of networks serving ~11 million customers across 9,500+ French communes. The tech stack reveals a data-heavy, cloud-native operation: Snowflake + Informatica for data pipelines, Dataiku for analytics, Power BI for reporting, plus Elasticsearch and PostgreSQL for real-time monitoring. Hiring is heavily skewed toward internships and junior roles (162 and 53 respectively), with ops-heavy focus (96 open positions), suggesting either high training demand or significant infrastructure scaling projects. Active projects center on biomethane injection, network modernization, and decarbonation—not replacement of legacy systems.
