Vehicle manufacturer operating Australian dealer network and parts distribution
Mazda Australia is a 201–500-person automotive manufacturer and distributor running a SQL Server + Microsoft Office stack typical of traditional OEM operations. The pain-point list reveals dual pressure: legacy ETL migration to cloud and multiple warranty/parts-revenue initiatives, suggesting tension between inherited on-premise infrastructure and dealer-support modernization. Current hiring is sparse (6 open roles) but accelerating, with balanced department coverage across sales, engineering, data, and product—indicating incremental investment rather than platform rebuild.
Mazda Australia manufactures and distributes vehicles through a dealer network across the country, headquartered in Melbourne. The business spans vehicle sales, service operations, and parts distribution to dealers. Active projects include new model launch training (BT-50 and battery-electric vehicle lines), quarterly business planning for sales/service/parts divisions, and sustainability program rollout across the dealer network. The organization operates on legacy SQL Server infrastructure and is working to migrate ETL pipelines to cloud while addressing fragmentation in warranty tracking, dealer profitability metrics, and parts revenue growth.
Primary stack: SQL Server, SQL Server Integration Services, Power BI, Microsoft Office, Excel, Jira, Teams, and Microsoft Access. No major tech replacements or cloud migrations completed; ETL-to-cloud transition is ongoing.
Key projects: new model launch training (BT-50 and BEV lines), quarterly business planning for sales/service/parts, dealer-network sustainability initiatives, and warranty-process improvements. Parts revenue growth and dealer profitability are priority focus areas.
