IoT platform for aircraft, manufacturing, and oil & gas operations
ZestIoT builds connected operations platforms for capital-intensive industries—aviation, manufacturing, oil & gas, and F&B—using IoT sensors, camera-AI, and PLC integration to drive real-time visibility and automated decision-making. The hiring mix is heavily skewed toward sales (6 roles) over engineering (2), with accelerating velocity and senior-level opens concentrated in enterprise go-to-market—a sign the company is scaling customer acquisition faster than product development, likely pursuing land-and-expand in existing verticals.
