Job Description
Do Yourself a Power of Good
Vector is collaborating with AWS and other leading global technology firms —right here in Aotearoa New Zealand —to tackle some of the world’s biggest energy challenges.
In 2020, Vector and Amazon Web Services (AWS) formed an alliance to co-develop Diverge, a cloud-native data platform. This partnership evolved into Vector Technology Services (VTS), a wholly owned subsidiary of Vector, New Zealand’s largest distributor of electricity and gas.
At VTS, our strategy is to deliver commercially valuable, cloud-native platforms that solve today’s energy challenges while staying primed for future innovation. We're guided by the four Ds:
Decarbonisation
Decentralisation
Democratisation
Digitalisation
