German cloud infrastructure provider with sovereign data residency for DACH enterprises
STACKIT operates a cloud and colocation platform built on Kubernetes, OpenStack, and a data pipeline stack (Kafka, Spark, Flink, Dremio), actively replacing Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace with in-house alternatives. The company is engineering-heavy (89 of 173 open roles) with senior-skewed hiring, focused on Kubernetes operator development, storage architecture, and a homegrown data-and-AI platform—indicating deep infrastructure ownership rather than SaaS-style outsourcing.
