Electric and hybrid bus manufacturer with integrated transport systems
Nova Bus manufactures sustainable transit buses across electric, hybrid, CNG, and diesel powertrains for North American fleets. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward Microsoft enterprise tools (Office, Project, Teams, Power BI) and CAD/simulation software (AutoCAD, Inventor, MATLAB), with a secondary cloud data layer (Azure, AWS). Active hiring skews toward engineering (22 open roles) and operations, while the project list centers on electrification infrastructure, fleet service campaigns, and application modernization—suggesting a company managing the operational complexity of transitioning both product (to electric) and internal systems (legacy to cloud).
