After almost a decade of experience spanning freelance activities, research, and open-source initiatives, Petr Pridal began to assemble the MapTiler team. His driving vision was to foster a group of individuals who collectively believed in creating maps that are both widely accessible and easy for everyone to use.
With our mapping platform, clients are building digital maps that genuinely improve the lives of millions worldwide. In fact, 400 million people see MapTiler's digital maps every month, across our customers' mobile and web platforms. So, whether you're checking a German weather forecast, purchasing a Swiss train ticket, or interacting with an airplane's infotainment system, you've likely encountered our maps.
Our team is steadily expanding, and we're always on the lookout for new talent. While our headquarters and main office are in Zug, Switzerland, and part of our development team is based in Brno, Czechia, many of us work remotely from locations across the globe. We are continuously growing our range of products, making sure that the customers get everything they need to put maps in their apps and websites.
What started with a single-person has steadily grown into MapTiler, the successful company you see today. Our team is diverse, with each person bringing something different to the table, but we all share a deep passion for maps and a strong belief that work should be fun.
We love creating maps and we support open-source; but most importantly we are committed to doing the right thing.
