Network-independent telecom provider scaling cloud commerce and SAP infrastructure
Freenet AG is Germany's largest independent telecom operator, now investing heavily in cloud migration and e-commerce modernization. The tech stack reveals a SAP-centric enterprise architecture (SAP Commerce Cloud, S/4HANA, BTP, RISE) paired with AWS adoption and greenfield TypeScript projects — a pattern indicating migration from on-premise to hybrid cloud. Engineering-heavy hiring (11 of 19 active roles) and active projects around cloud ALM, workflow automation, and storefront optimization suggest freenet is rearchitecting its order-to-cash systems while managing legacy SAP debt.

Current operational focus spans e-commerce platform modernization (dual B2B/B2C storefronts on SAP Commerce Cloud), central order workflow systems, and IT governance maturity in a regulated telecom environment.
