Who we are


At Pentland Firth, we have always been a team with a strong focus on people, whether employee or client. As an IT company founded in 2004, we have always built our solutions together with and for the people who use them. This is one of our main driving factors. The creative spirit of our international team has been another primary force. This has led us to evolve from offering classic software consulting services to creating our own, in-house ground-breaking IoT solutions that cover hardware and electronics in addition to software.



What we do


Our main creation is Whiz-Cart (Easy Shopper @Edeka Minden-Hannover), an intelligent shopping cart that brings the future to the here and now. This is just one of the results of our drive to push technological boundaries, with the customer convenience as the main emphasis.

"Here I get to find creative and innovative solutions to interesting problems... Is there anything else a developer at heart could look for?" Daniel Software Architect
"Legendary team events, awesome atmosphere and improvement of table football skills" Stefan Senior Consultant

Whiz-Cart is what we came up with when we transformed the traditional shopping cart to bring you the shopping experience of the future. With Whiz-Cart, it’s simply shop and go. No more re-bagging, waiting, or unpacking. Whiz-Cart navigates you through the store, lets you create shopping lists on the fly (and share them), alerts you to the best deals in the store, and, most importantly, lets you pay directly at the cart - forget waiting at the cash register!


It’s so easy.

Events

Here at Pentland Firth the fun does not fall short. Every month all employees meet for the LOT (Local Office Training). The program of the day includes a colourful mixture of exciting lectures, important updates and funny presentations of our "Newbies". At the end of the day, the Fridays Bar opens. We also organise team events every year. In the summer as well as in the winter you can enjoy the great outdoors. In addition, we go to the Oktoberfest together every year. Because we are always looking for direct contact to people, our company booth has been at IKOM and the TEDxTUM event for several years. To ensure a regular exchange between the employees of different departments, we plan monthly Pizza-Friday and CTM's (Cross Team Meetings). As a team we have also participated in many activities outside of work, including the Spartan Race and Muddy Angels Run.
