Northpower Tech Stack
Regional electricity and fibre network operator across Northland, New Zealand
Northpower operates electricity and fibre networks serving 60,000+ consumers across the Whangārei and Kaipara region, plus provides contracting services to other network operators across the North Island. The tech stack reveals a hybrid infrastructure-and-analytics posture: enterprise ERP (SAP, JD Edwards), BI platforms (Power BI, Tableau, Looker), cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure), and statistical tools (Python, R, SAS) sit alongside domain-specific tools (GIS, AutoCAD, TMS). Hiring velocity is accelerating with engineering roles dominating the intake—signaling a shift toward asset modernization and data-driven network optimization against stated pain points in data usage, cost estimation, and carbon reporting.
