PWN is a 100+ year old public water utility serving Noord-Holland with dual focus on drinking water infrastructure and nature management in the duins. The tech stack is enterprise-conventional (Windows, Azure, SAP, SQL Server) — typical for utilities — but the active project list reveals modernization pressure: digital workplace rollout, network connectivity expansion, test automation, and infrastructure replacement across multiple production sites. Engineering-heavy hiring (8 of 14 roles) signals sustained capital investment in treatment plants and distribution, while pain points around source quality, purification optimization, and climate resilience show the core operational stress.
PWN supplies drinking water and manages natural conservation across Noord-Holland, operating from headquarters in Velserbroek. Founded in 1920, the company operates as a public entity with 501–1,000 employees and balances water delivery certainty with ecosystem health in the dune landscape. Core operations span water treatment technology, purification, network distribution, maintenance, inspection, and customer service. Current priorities include new treatment facilities at Overveen and Waag, renovation of aging infrastructure, and expansion of network connectivity across multiple operational sites.
Windows 10, Windows Server, Linux, Chrome, Firefox, SQL Server, SAP, Ariba, SharePoint, Azure ExpressRoute, and Active Directory. Predominantly enterprise infrastructure typical of large utilities.
