B2B software and compliance solutions for DACH enterprises, migrating to cloud and modern ERP
Haufe Group operates a portfolio of business and workplace solutions across software, training, and compliance content, serving over one million customers in the DACH region from solo operators to DAX 40 companies. The tech stack reveals an organization in active migration: moving from SAP R/3 to S/4HANA while adopting Azure, AWS, and GCP cloud services alongside legacy on-premise infrastructure (SAP, Cisco, HPE). The hiring velocity is decelerating despite open infrastructure and engineering roles, and pain points center on security compliance, legacy system upgrades, and internal AI adoption—typical of large established firms managing transformation at scale.
Haufe Group is a family-owned B2B provider based in Freiburg, Germany, founded in 1951 and operating across 12 locations with approximately 2,700 employees. The company serves over one million customers with integrated solutions spanning software products (accounting, inventory, HR systems under brands Haufe, Haufe Akademie, and Lexware), online databases, professional literature for law and tax, and workplace training. The organization operates across a mixed technology footprint—SAP enterprise systems, Salesforce for CRM, cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP), and automation tooling (Ansible, Terraform, GitLab)—while executing major infrastructure and ERP migrations.
SAP (FI, R/3, and migrating to S/4HANA), Salesforce, Cypress, GitLab, Azure, AWS, GCP, Windows, Linux, Cisco, HPE, VMware, and automation tools including Ansible, Terraform, and PowerShell.
