Smeup is a 500–1,000-person Italian software and infrastructure firm built around legacy enterprise systems (AS/400, DB2, SQL Server) layered with modern web tooling (Angular, TypeScript, REST APIs). The tech stack reveals a company managing long-term customer commitments on older platforms while gradually modernizing frontends—a pattern typical of systems integrators serving manufacturing and logistics. Hiring remains engineering-focused with a senior-weighted mix, concentrated in Italy, and current pain points (client acquisition and retention) suggest the business model is under pressure despite operational stability.
Smeup partners with mid-market enterprises on digital transformation, specializing in ERP systems, business intelligence, cloud infrastructure, and industry-vertical solutions for manufacturing, metallurgy, retail, and logistics. The firm was founded in 2013 and operates from Erbusco in northern Italy. Services span custom software development (Java, Angular-based web platforms), managed infrastructure (Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet, Forcepoint security appliances), and data management. Active hiring (15 open roles, mostly engineering and senior-level) suggests ongoing project delivery and infrastructure maintenance work.
