Viloc is a young, high-tech company with a unique solution for tool management in the construction sector.

We install tiny radio transmitters on small construction tools like drills or angle grinders. These RF tags automatically transmit data via base-units to the internet, allowing our customers to track their tools in a web application, giving them information about the whereabouts of the tools, their usage, etc.
This web application makes it possible to automate the tool management at these construction companies.
At this moment, we are applying this at numerous major construction companies in Belgium and the Netherlands, but we are planning a rapid roll-out throughout Europe and beyond. Our vision is that, in 5 years, every drill will be connected to the “internet of things”. We will be the enabler for the construction companies and the tool manufacturers to realize this.

To bring this ambition to reality, we need a strong development team with a multi-disciplinary experience in software, hardware, firmware and product development.
