Vienna's municipal transit operator running metro, tram, and bus networks
Wiener Linien operates Austria's largest regional transit network, moving 2.4 million daily passengers across more than 1,000 vehicles. The tech stack is firmly enterprise—SAP (R/3, S/4HANA, SuccessFactors, BW), SQL Server, Power BI, Qlik—reflecting a large public-sector organization with heavy backend systems integration. Current hiring skews toward engineering and HR roles, and active projects center on network operations (NOC setup), incident management systems, IT security hardening, and tram infrastructure planning—a mix that suggests focus on operational resilience and compliance alongside digital modernization.
Wiener Linien is Vienna's publicly owned transit authority, responsible for metro, tram, and bus services across the city. The organization operates the world's sixth-largest streetcar network and runs approximately 214,000 kilometers daily across its fleet. Headquartered in Vienna, Wiener Linien employs over 9,500 staff representing more than 60 nationalities. The company provides 24/7 service year-round, with documented pain points around female leadership representation, process automation, network security, incident response development, and asset lifecycle management—priorities typical of critical infrastructure operators managing aging systems and regulatory requirements.
Core systems include SAP (R/3, S/4HANA, SuccessFactors, BW), Microsoft Office suite, SQL Server, Power BI, Qlik, Cisco, and Linux. Infrastructure reflects enterprise transit operations management.
Key projects include network operation center setup, tram network planning, incident/incident management systems, IT security measures, process automation, and new construction/renovation of transit infrastructure.
