Stories

All employees bring their own experience to the company.

Together we can write new success stories…

After 40+ years, we have many stories to tell, and we look forward to adding yours. Here’s what a few employees say about working at Software AG:
 

"From technology skills to business development and international opportunities, Software AG has provided me with a truly well-rounded career. I began working in the Information Technology department with a web database development focus, but have progressed into management where I am able to apply my techie background with both a departmental and company-wide view. Now, as manager of the Global IT budgeting and billing process, I see IT’s impact directly in the business and work to optimize our services to provide a solid backbone for success. Plus, a recent transfer from our US office in Reston, Virginia to the Company Headquarters in Darmstadt Germany opens my eyes to a more global perspective. From learning XML to learning the German language, who knows where Software AG will take me next!"
Emily Jane Ryan, USA and Germany
 

"I enjoy working at Software AG because I am surrounded by great people. The organisation has allowed me to develop and grow not only as a person but as a leader too. The environment in which we work is young and dynamic and I am excited to be part of Software AG at this very interesting stage of its growth and development."
Darren Roos, Member of the Group Executive Board, Sales Region EMEA (excl. D/A/CH, EE)
 

"To me being a part of Software AG means, working on small and large projects with fascinating people in international teams, meeting new challenges every day and bringing in my own ideas and solutions. Especially the Professional Services Department provides me with a wide range of opportunities. In fact, I meet companies from different industries whether Finance, Insurance, Services or Media and this in many different locations national as well as international. I am happy, because I am able to make a difference and I have a good perspective for my future."
Zvonimir Ivanetic, Professional Services, Germany  
 

"While I was attending university, I had the opportunity to use and add to my skills as a student intern at Software AG. My responsibilities included the redesign and expansion of existing graphical interfaces as well as the new development of Eclipse plug-ins. Web services, SOAP and XML stopped being just theoretical concepts for me. After earning my masters degree, Software AG offered me the chance to work in one of the last domiciles of database development in Europe. With Adabas, Software AG's database system, I have access to the widest variety of development platforms—something hardly any other company in Germany can offer. The sheer diversity of hardware platforms and operating systems makes developing this complex software an exciting task with new challenges every day."
Sven Born, Germany
 

"IDS Scheer and its solutions and our new colleagues represent the single most important factor on our journey to the next level of business and market leadership."
Jimmy Sköldberg, Sales Director, Sweden
 

"Working with Software AG is like continuously heading for new heights in an ambitious environment in a great team. You often do not know the new challenge awaiting you behind the next edge – but it’s great once you got beyond it."
Dr. Ulrich Post, R&D Consultant, webMethods business division, Germany
