Wireless IoT sensors and remote monitoring for industrial operations
Monnit manufactures and distributes wireless sensor hardware paired with cloud monitoring software for industrial and commercial facilities. The tech stack—NetSuite, C/C#, Python, KiCad for PCB design—reflects a hardware-first organization managing both embedded firmware and SaaS infrastructure. Active projects center on sensor/gateway development, firmware validation, and solution architecture, while pain points around manufacturing process efficiency and APAC expansion suggest the company is scaling production and geographic reach rather than pivoting product strategy.
Monnit builds ready-to-use wireless sensor systems that monitor variables like temperature, humidity, motion, and vibration across industrial, commercial, and facility-management environments. Customers receive real-time alerts via SMS, email, or voice when monitored conditions breach user-defined thresholds, enabling early detection of equipment failures, inventory loss, and infrastructure damage. The product suite includes self-installable sensors, gateways, and a cloud platform (SaaS) accessible via web and mobile applications. Founded in 2010 and based in Salt Lake City, the company operates as a privately held organization with 51–200 employees, serving a global market with products certified for worldwide use (FCC, CE, IC).
Monnit's stack includes C and C# for firmware, Python and SQL for backend services, NetSuite for enterprise resource planning, Postman for API development, and KiCad for circuit design. Frontend uses JavaScript, jQuery, and CSS; testing across Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
Current projects include sensor and gateway hardware development, firmware testing and validation, PCB layout and verification, solution architecture design, and sales enablement materials. The team also runs partner training on sensor technologies and customer demonstrations.
