Municipal government delivering services to 100,000+ residents across Alberta
Strathcona County runs a Microsoft-heavy operations stack (Dynamics 365, Power Apps, SharePoint, Project) and is now adopting Jira — a shift toward modern workflow tooling. Current projects cluster around three areas: digitizing paper-based processes (forms, permitting, grants), managing infrastructure assets (utilities, fleet), and improving internal operations (IT service management platform rollout). The hiring mix skews operational (11 ops roles) with lighter engineering (2 roles), suggesting they're scaling service delivery and internal systems rather than building new platforms.
