Fleet management and autonomous mining software for surface operations
Wenco operates a mining software stack built on C++, Linux, and AWS, serving surface mining operations globally. The company is actively adopting Flutter, Dart, and MAUI — shifting toward cross-platform mobile clients — while maintaining core expertise in GNSS/RTK positioning, IoT telemetry (InfluxDB), and autonomous dispatch systems. Current hiring (engineering-heavy, mostly mid-to-senior level) focuses on vehicle autonomy platforms and back-office dispatcher services, suggesting acceleration of the open autonomy and autonomous haulage product lines rather than core platform maintenance.
Wenco International Mining Systems, based in Richmond, BC, develops fleet management, machine guidance, and autonomous haulage software for surface mining operations. As a subsidiary of Hitachi Construction Machinery Company since its 1986 founding, the company operates at the intersection of heavy equipment telematics, real-time positioning (GNSS/RTK), and autonomous mining dispatch. The product portfolio spans fleet tracking, fatigue management, equipment health analytics, and autonomous vehicle control — deployed across mining sites in Australia, Chile, and the United States. Current focus areas include next-generation autonomy platforms, underground mining product development, and post-acquisition integration following Hitachi consolidation.
Core stack: C++, Linux, Python, Kubernetes, AWS/Azure. Real-time telemetry: InfluxDB, IIoT, GNSS/RTK, GPS. Mobile platforms: transitioning to Flutter, Dart, and .NET MAUI (adopting). Backend services: C#, Azure DevOps, OpenAPI.
Next-generation open autonomy platform, autonomous haulage systems, underground mining products, vehicle onboard logic, dispatcher web applications, and asset health/availability analytics. Active focus on system upgrades and post-acquisition integration.
