Public transport planning and roading network operator for Auckland region
Auckland Transport operates a 1,600-person government agency managing regional public transport, roading networks, parking, and traffic systems. The tech stack reveals dual engineering and analytics capability — Python, Java, C++, React, Kafka, and PostgreSQL sit alongside Power BI and Tableau, with heavy investment in computer vision (OpenCV, TensorFlow, DeepStream) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes). Active hiring across engineering and ops roles suggests the agency is automating asset classification and building dashboards while grappling with network capacity constraints and rail asset availability.
