What do you like about your job at AIXTRON?

I'm involved in developing and implementing future-oriented processes and a modern software infrastructure. My job gives me lots of scope for action and decision-making in a wide range of tasks. On top of this, there are opportunities for professional and personal development. As a father, I benefit from flexible working hours and the opportunity for mobile working.

How our department is structured

Information technology at AIXTRON is divided into three departments: IT Applications & Process, IT Infrastructure, and Cybersecurity. These are their tasks:

AIXTRON Insight

IT Applications & Process

In our department, we design processes, architectures and solutions for AIXTRON. This involves typical systems such as SAP ERP & xRM, PLM or Atlassian and products such as Confluence and Jira. We provide related advice and training for colleagues in other departments, laying the foundations for productive processes. In addition, we provide 2nd- and 3rd-level support and enable smooth workflows in day-to-day operations at our sister companies and subsidiaries by rolling out standardised applications.

AIXTRON Insight

IT Infrastructure

Our work isn't just about installing cables and setting up PCs. We also design and operate the on-premise and cloud infrastructures and the global AIXTRON network – the company's brain and nerve centre. In addition, we ensure modern workstations and platforms for hybrid working. Of course, we also develop cloud and big-data architectures, thus leading AIXTRON into the future.

AIXTRON Insight

Cybersecurity

Protecting systems, networks and programs against digital attacks is a key element of IT. This is a real challenge, as there are more devices than people and the attackers are becoming increasingly crafty and innovative. In tandem with our information security colleagues and specialist partners, we implement high-performance solutions and processes to protect our expertise and the data of customers and employees.

Words from a former IT apprentice:

I am a junior IT system administrator in Client Management. My tasks include setting up the hardware, distributing and packaging the software on the client computers as well as diagnosing and solving software and hardware problems. What I enjoy is the friendly working environment and the great teamwork. In addition, further development and receiving professional training are important to me.
