Staffing and systems integration firm modernizing legacy platforms with automation
HCL Global Systems is a staffing and consulting firm actively repositioning toward automation and modernization work. The tech stack reveals a shift in motion: they're adopting GraphQL, Power Automate, Power BI, and dbt while phasing out Informatica—a move from monolithic data pipelines toward cloud-native tooling. Engineering hiring (15 roles) outpaces other departments 3:1, and their project list centers on RPA, API testing, and CI/CD—signaling a pivot from pure staffing toward building proprietary solutions and automation IP.
