Torus Inc.
About Torus
Torus is headquartered in Utah and is expanding manufacturing at our 540,000‑square‑foot facility in Salt Lake City called GigaOne.
Our mission is to build the world's first mesh energy infrastructure — built to unite people and communities through resilient, secure, and intelligent power.
We design, engineer, manufacture, install, and support our systems end‑to‑end, standing behind them throughout their lifecycle. Torus systems help reduce costs, lower emissions, and protect facilities from outages, while strengthening the security and reliability of the broader utility grid. Torus is committed to American manufacturing, engineering excellence, and building energy systems that last.

You maintain the highest standards for technical excellence and safety . Your deep electrical expertise allows you to mentor teams, troubleshoot complex installations, and make sound judgments on code compliance and quality.
