  • We have a direct underground connection, at peak times every 5 minutes.
  • The A9 and A99 motorways are only a 3-minute drive away.

With a 5-day week, you will receive 30 days' holiday from us. You can also take holiday with us during your probationary period by arrangement with your team leader, as we always try to make holiday requests possible.

You will receive your personalised onboarding plan. We will welcome you to our office in Garching for the first few days in your new job. Here you can not only soak up a bit of HvS DNA, but also get to know your new colleagues. You will receive a comprehensive IT and security briefing and will be able to jump straight into your first projects.

You will be "refuelled", but not to the point of overflowing, because we know how demanding the first few days in a new job are and try to divide all the new information into suitable morsels.

We are fundamentally a virtual company and remote working is of course part of a modern working environment. First and foremost, we work in a results-orientated and flexible way, sometimes from anywhere in the world.

However, real teams are formed after meetings, in the coffee kitchen or over lunch, which is why we also like to see you in the office.
