Smart grid and renewable energy equipment manufacturer
SOJO Electric manufactures switchgear, substations, and distribution automation equipment for power grids, with active expansion into renewable energy and EV charging. The tech stack is CAD/simulation-heavy (SolidWorks, ANSYS, COMSOL, CREO, HFSS) and C-based, reflecting a hardware-first engineering culture. Current project load signals a strategic pivot: photovoltaic and wind power projects alongside core grid products, supported by mid-to-senior engineering hires. Cost and inventory optimization challenges suggest manufacturing complexity at scale.
