Municipal government operating 30+ departments across 1.5M residents
City of Phoenix operates a sprawling 14,000+ person government enterprise spanning aviation, public safety, transit, parks, water services, and 25+ other departments. The tech stack is traditional municipal — SAP, Oracle, PeopleSoft, Microsoft 365 — with no adopting or replacing signals, which is typical for a public sector organization with legacy ERP commitments. Hiring velocity is accelerating with 49 roles posted in the last 30 days, weighted toward operations and engineering (37 of 89 total), suggesting active expansion in infrastructure maintenance and capital projects rather than digital transformation.
Notable leadership hires: Housing Director, Chief Construction Inspector, Finance Director, Chief Engineering Technician, Parks & Recreation Director
