Energy trading software and procurement automation for German utilities
Syneco is a trading and software company within Germany's Thüga Group, serving municipal and mid-market energy suppliers with automation tools for electricity, gas, and CO2 trading. The stack (Java, Spring Boot, Kubernetes, SAP S/4HANA, AWS) and active migration work (on-prem to cloud via Terraform and CloudFormation) reveal an organization moving core trading systems into containerized cloud infrastructure. The hiring mix—security and ops roles alongside engineering—reflects both modernization pressure and the regulated nature of energy markets.
