International Potato Center (CIP) Tech Stack
Agricultural research nonprofit developing climate-resilient potato and tuber crops
CIP is a research-for-development nonprofit founded in 1971, operating across 20+ countries to advance food security through potato, sweetpotato, and Andean root crop breeding and agronomy. The tech stack is heavily Microsoft-centric (Office 365, Power BI, Power Automate, SharePoint) with AWS and Azure infrastructure — typical of legacy research organizations modernizing around data workflows. Active hiring spans research, finance, and engineering roles across Africa, Asia, and Latin America, with a notable gap in security and data maturity (only 2 each) despite listed pain points around data quality, documentation, and IT governance.
