Österreichische Post is a 28,000-person postal and logistics incumbent spanning letter delivery, parcel distribution, and retail banking across Austria and select European markets. The tech stack is heavily SAP-dependent (R/3, S/4HANA, HANA, SuccessFactors) with supporting infrastructure (Cisco, Palo Alto, Fortinet, Azure DevOps) — typical of a large regulated operator managing physical networks. Hiring velocity is decelerating with 604 open roles skewed heavily toward logistics (451) and junior/intern levels (529 of 604), while security, data, and engineering remain thin; the active projects cluster around infrastructure automation, cybersecurity governance, and payroll modernization, signaling a phase of operational tightening rather than expansion.

In 2024, the group generated over €3.1 billion in revenue. International presence extends selectively into Germany, Southeast and Eastern Europe, Turkey, and Azerbaijan.
Core systems run on SAP (R/3, S/4HANA, HANA) and SuccessFactors for HR/payroll. Network security uses Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, and Fortinet firewalls; monitoring via Wireshark and Riverbed.
