DFB runs IT and digital services for German football's governing body, operating a 501–1,000-person organization across marketing, event management, and technology. The tech stack—Jakarta EE, Spring Boot, Kafka, Oracle, SAP S/4HANA—reflects a large enterprise system backbone, but active hiring across engineering (21 roles) and security (5 roles) plus a project roadmap heavy on 'legacy system refactoring' and 'DFBnet modernization' signals a multi-year effort to replace aging monoliths with event-driven architecture.
