Global energy market forecasting and analytics platform
Aurora Energy Research operates a research-driven software and advisory business spanning 17 offices across six continents. The tech stack reveals a hybrid quantitative-to-software maturity model: domain-specific modeling tools (MATLAB, GAMS, AMPL, R) sit alongside modern SaaS infrastructure (Salesforce, dbt, Looker, Segment), with engineering and product hiring tracking geographic expansion into Japan and Asia-Pacific. Active projects center on software product maturity (Chronos and Origin platforms) and energy transition analysis, while pain points flag integration and scalability challenges as the company scales beyond pure research consulting.
