Actually systemd's poweroff should be on /usr/bin or /bin but if you got it 
there you shouldn't have got the command not found error so something is 
messed up with your system. Post the output to the folling

ls -l /usr/bin/poweroff
ls -l /bin/poweroff
ls -l /sbin/poweroff
ls -l /usr/sbin/poweroff

Only one of them should list something and it should be a symlink to 
systemctl.
