Global energy company scaling renewables, grid modernization, and security infrastructure
Iberdrola operates one of the world's largest electricity networks across dozens of countries, supplying nearly 100 million people. The tech stack reveals a hybrid industrial-cloud architecture: SCADA and SAP for core grid operations alongside Azure, AWS, and GCP for digital transformation, paired with modern dev tools (GitHub, Kubernetes, React, Angular). Active hiring in security (8 roles) and engineering (25) signals a push toward cloud-native grid management and compliance-hardening — reinforced by leadership recruitment of a Chief Information Security Officer and adoption of industrial control standards (ISA/IEC 62443). Current project mix emphasizes modernization: real-time SCADA monitoring, grid upgrades, and wind-farm operations alongside financial and risk-management tooling.
