    What They Do

    Zitara is a private, venture-backed startup that specializes in battery management and optimization software, primarily targeting grid-scale energy storage and electrified fleets. Their technology focuses on developing both cloud-based and embedded solutions that enhance the safety, performance, and longevity of lithium-ion battery systems.

    Projects & Track Record

The company emphasizes its partnerships with integrators and battery OEMs, indicating active commercialization efforts in grid storage markets, although no detailed project portfolio is available (source: zitara.com). The focus on building relationships with IPPs and IOUs suggests ongoing projects, but the lack of disclosed capacities or project names limits visibility into their operational track record (source: esgtoday.com).

In 2022, the company announced a $12 million Series A funding round, followed by a Series AA round in 2023, which raised an additional $17 million led by Salesforce Ventures, with participation from other strategic investors such as Emerson Ventures and Chevron Technology Ventures (source: ycombinator.com). This funding is aimed at enhancing their product offerings and expanding their market presence, particularly in collaboration with utilities and battery OEMs (source: esgtoday.com).

    Zitara's workforce is primarily composed of professionals in software engineering, data science, machine learning, and battery science, reflecting the company's engineering-heavy focus. The company offers competitive pay, a 401(k) plan, unlimited paid time off (PTO), and a comprehensive benefits package for employees and their families (source: zitara.com). The culture at Zitara emphasizes collaboration between battery researchers and software engineers, fostering an environment of learning and innovation, although specific details about remote work policies are not publicly available (source: ycombinator.com).
