Sam Rostainajad

Founder and CEO

Sam Rostainajad is the founder and CEO of GridOps. He started the company after seeing the same problem in operator after operator: smart, hard-working ground transportation businesses being held back by software that wasn't built for them. GridOps is his answer. The platform is built around how operators actually run, not how software vendors think they should.
