CAREERS > The Optiwind CultureIf you thrive in the classic start-up environment of fast pace, high responsibility, hard work and fun, Optiwind is the right place for you. We believe strongly in giving our people both the room to grow and learn beyond their comfort zones as well as the support necessary to succeed.We are a young company, pioneering a new category of distributed wind turbines within a total wind market that is over $30 billion per year and growing at nearly 50% per year. The industry is global and the demand for experienced wind industry talent will be here for the foreseeable future as we push towards the US Department of Energy’s goal of expanding the percentage of US electricity generated by wind from less than 1% today to 20% by 2030. Optiwind looks for team oriented, self-motivated people, with a passion for learning and execution. We value and embrace diversity and foster a casual yet professional work atmosphere that offers the range of benefits, from healthcare to 401k matching. Headquartered in Torrington Connecticut, in the state’s northwestern hills, there is an abundance of outdoor activity available, while also being only 2 hours from New York and Boston. |

"Our town has a water treatment plant that has electricity bills of around $150k a year. The guys are always talking about how windy it is out there and I know we have a bunch of land there. Can we have wind energy?" |
