With the limited context provided, it is not easy to be sure of the meaning of 'Divisi'. I give one possibility but there may be others.

Technology Development Center/Division
He has worked at Technology Dev Center (or Dev Div).
Indonesian organizations -- especially governmental ones-- sometimes overuse words in naming their units. In western world, a division is a unit as well as a center. But Indonesian may mix them out of exaggeration or smugness or foolishness or any combination of these.
You better cross check whether the unit is actually a "Divisi" or a "Pusat". Try check names of other units.
There is a slight difference between "Technology Dev" and "Technological Dev". I guess the second refers to something to do with technology (application, impact), but not the technology itself (improvement, new method).
