Municipal government operating infrastructure, permitting, and public services across Dortmund
Stadt Dortmund is a large public administration managing core city operations—water infrastructure, building permits, social services, fire and safety—across 10,000+ staff. The tech stack (SAP, ArcGIS, AutoCAD, Revit) reflects infrastructure-heavy municipal work: spatial asset management, facility design, and enterprise record-keeping. Active hiring in engineering and operations, with a sizable intern cohort, suggests capacity expansion around digitalization projects (personnel records, sewer network asset tracking, damage classification workflows) and new construction oversight.
