KMD is a 2,700-person IT services company that has digitized Danish public institutions for over 50 years and is now owned by NEC Corporation. The tech stack spans both legacy (Delphi, Firebird, Windows) and modern (Kubernetes, Angular, Spring Boot, Azure) platforms, with engineering-heavy hiring focused on UI modernization and infrastructure containerization — a pattern that matches their stated pain of transitioning legacy systems to cloud-native architectures. Active hiring is accelerating, concentrated in Denmark with senior-level positions dominating the mix.
KMD operates across Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Poland, primarily serving public-sector institutions and government agencies. The company combines long-standing expertise in IT services, IT security, and regulatory compliance (NIS2, ESDH) with active modernization efforts across payroll systems, user interfaces, and infrastructure. Current work includes vendor compliance frameworks, security assessments, and bridging gaps between customer requirements and delivery—functions typical of large-scale public IT contracts. KMD remains privately held under NEC Corporation's ownership.
KMD uses Delphi, Firebird, and SQL for legacy systems; .NET, C#, Angular, and React for modern development; Kubernetes and Docker for containerization; SQL Server and Azure DevOps for infrastructure; and Java with Spring Boot for backend services.
KMD is headquartered in Ballerup, Sjælland, Denmark. The company operates across five Nordic and Central European countries: Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Poland.
