pub.tech builds digital platforms for public media organizations, founded in 2022 by Bayerischer Rundfunk and Südwestrundfunk as a spinout. The tech stack is heavily .NET-centric (C#, ASP.NET Core, Entity Framework) paired with multi-cloud compute (AWS, Azure, GCP) and Google Cloud data tools (BigQuery, Dataflow, Pub/Sub), signaling a migration toward event-driven, distributed data architecture. Active adoption of Kafka and RabbitMQ, combined with projects around data mesh implementation and clickstream processing, reflects internal pressure to scale analytics and real-time media asset workflows across a multi-broadcaster network.
pub.tech develops and operates digital infrastructure for public broadcasters across Germany. The company operates as a public entity, jointly owned by Bayerischer Rundfunk and Südwestrundfunk, and employs approximately 100 people based in Munich. Core products include distributed media asset management systems, backend services for AI/RAG applications, and data platforms (data mesh, BI dashboards, clickstream processing). The organization serves broadcast and media operations at scale, with engineering and data teams building toward real-time, cloud-native infrastructure.
Primarily .NET Core, C#, and ASP.NET Core on the backend; SQL Server and PostgreSQL for relational data; MongoDB for document storage; AWS, Azure, and GCP for cloud infrastructure; BigQuery, Dataflow, and Pub/Sub for data pipelines; Kubernetes and Docker for orchestration; GitLab CI/CD and Azure Pipelines for deployment.
Distributed media asset management, data mesh architecture, clickstream processing, BI data marts, GenAI projects, and backend services for AI/RAG systems. Projects span media operations and real-time analytics for public broadcasters.
