About Us

We are a French company specializing in the development and operation of critical computing infrastructures, with a focus on hyperdense data centers dedicated to artificial intelligence.

Our solutions power the most demanding AI workloads for leading clients in the industry.

To strengthen our Commercial team, we are looking for a driven, hunter-minded, and client-focused Business Developer.
