Plenit (formerly Jotelulu) is the Operating Platform for IT Service Providers. We help MSPs, ISVs, VARs, and IT resellers run, scale, and grow their businesses on top of our own sovereign infrastructure, with footprint across Europe and the Americas.
We are a European cloud platform with a clear conviction: digital sovereignty matters, and the IT channel deserves a partner that speaks their language, builds for their reality, and stays close to the ground. We are not enterprise-y. We are simple, pragmatic, and obsessed with our partners’ success.
Five years in, we are 130 people, four countries, and growing fast — which is exactly why we are bringing this role on now.
We’re passionate about technology, but we’re also a bit geeky—we love Star Wars, video games, 90s movies, and pop culture. We work hard and with passion, but we also have a great time together. At Plenit, you’ll find a balance between work and fun, where teammates often become friends, and boredom is rare—there’s always something new, unexpected, and memorable happening.
What We Offer
At Plenit, we aim to create an environment where people can grow, enjoy what they do, and bring their best selves to work. That’s why we’ve designed a benefits package that reflects who we are, how we work, and what we value as a company.
Our Culture
Our culture is how we work, how we relate to one another, and how we build something meaningful together.
It’s not about “cool” values for a website — it’s about real behaviors we live every day: a positive atmosphere, accountability, trust, and effectiveness.
We are committed to:
A great working environment built on teamwork, optimism, joy and the drive to do things well.
Responsibility and ownership, because everyone knows what needs to be done and finds the way to make it happen.
Trust, as the foundation of teamwork and our relationships with partners.
Effectiveness, focusing on results and constantly challenging ourselves to ensure we’re on the right path.
Special Days
You’ll enjoy:
December 24th and 31st off,
Your birthday off — because we believe your day should be yours.
Competitive Salary
We offer a competitive salary aligned with the market and reviewed periodically to ensure fairness and recognition.
Continuous Learning
We support your professional growth through internal training, learning resources, and development plans tailored to your career path.
Private Health Insurance
You’ll have access to private health coverage, giving you peace of mind and support in your day-to-day life.
Informal Events
We believe in celebrating achievements, strengthening team bonds, and having fun along the way. We regularly organize informal events and activities to enjoy time together and reinforce our team spirit.
