WHO WE ARE
About
Grid System S.A.S is a French software development company, founded in 2017, specialised in native and cross-platform technologies. We build tools that last, that perform, and that you truly own.
Performance and restraint
We believe modern software has become needlessly heavy. General-purpose frameworks, interpreted runtimes and complex microservice architectures have burdened every application with invisible technical debt — paid in RAM, in CPU cycles, in cloud hosting costs.
Our answer: native compilation. Every line of code we write is compiled directly into processor instructions. No JVM, no V8, no superfluous abstraction layer. The result is applications that start in milliseconds, use 10× less memory, and run on the hardware you already have.
Performance and restraint are not opposites. They are two sides of the same engineering discipline.
Complementary profiles, a shared vision
The team
A multidisciplinary team of diverse profiles, built around a core of two developers with more than 25 years of experience each. In the field, we have covered the web, HR, industry, optics, shipping, videoconferencing, banking, accounting, healthcare, prepaid services and agriculture. Around this core, a network of partner specialists — experts in legacy system migration, architects and performance consultants — can be brought in as each project requires.
A conviction dating back to 2017
2017 — Grid System S.A.S
Company founded in Haute-Savoie. Low-level development, compiled languages, native and cross-platform code: Windows, Linux, macOS, mobile, Web.
2020 — Agriculture
Supporting an agricultural software publisher: inputs, sowing, monitoring. Today a publisher and a development partner for industry and services.
2023 — Energy
Energy needs management: fluids, gas, electricity. Industrial supervision and geographic information systems, where every millisecond and every watt counts.
And since 1985… and onwards
1985 is the year of the founder's first computer. Ever since, imaging, real-time 3D, performance and energy efficiency have been at the heart of it all.
Where we excel
Native languages
Recognised expertise in Delphi: more than 25 years of Object Pascal, two compilers mastered (Delphi and FPC, cross-compilation). Libraries in C, C++ and Rust. Manual memory management, low-level optimisation, multi-platform compilation (Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, Android).
Cutting-edge 3D
Real-time 3D pipeline with DX11, DX12, OpenGL and Metal. HLSL/GLSL/MSL shaders, frustum culling, instanced rendering, custom high-performance rendering engines.
Server architecture
Design of multitenant servers, binary TCP buses, in-memory caching systems, high-frequency data pipelines. GridServer is our main showcase.
Migration & modernisation
Audit, rewrite and migration of legacy stacks (JVM, .NET, Electron) to native architectures. A proven method, controlled risk, guaranteed service continuity.
