Why start at Novatec part of CGI?

We do not have core working hours. When and where you work is up to you. Whether full-time or part-time, your working time model must suit you.

We make you feel good

Our certified Feelgood Management is dedicated to giving our employees the opportunity to share their ideas and wishes, allowing them to actively participate in shaping and developing Novatec. We believe this approach helps us achieve our goal of fostering motivated, satisfied, and happy employees who embody this spirit within their teams and carry it into their customer projects. Our trusted contacts are also your first point of contact for any matters you may not want to discuss with your manager or team. They serve as neutral advisors, especially for sensitive topics that may relate to you, your private life, or your professional environment.

Sustainability & Social Responsibility

We are committed to fulfilling our social responsibility as a company. Sustainability is one of our core values. As a common-good economy company, we are dedicated to measuring our success not only by financial performance but also by criteria such as human dignity, solidarity, ecological sustainability, social justice, democratic decision-making, and transparency. One example of our social initiatives is the "SOS@Home" project, where we partnered with a start-up to create a platform for children and young people who need support in cases of domestic violence. We are a paperless company, have a recycling process for our hardware, use collection bins from Trottwar, and rely exclusively on green electricity.

Our core technologies

Our Novatecies can proudly say: We always work with the latest technologies and love experimenting with new tools. Our frontend developers prefer working with React, Angular, or Vue.js. In the backend, we lean towards Java and Kotlin, enjoying frameworks like Spring, Quarkus, and Micronaut. Our cloud guild is passionate about AWS and Azure and enjoys exploring Kubernetes CRDs. The agile guild, of course, swears by Scrum but also embraces Kanban or "Scrumban" when it makes sense. In the data space, we use data visualization tools like PowerBI, analytical databases such as Snowflake, and Python as the foundation of our work.

Wellbeing

Wellbeing means satisfied and balanced employees, mindfulness towards oneself and others, and a focus on physical, psychological, and social health. Through voiio, we offer all employees a platform that provides workshops, coaching, and counseling for all life situations and phases. We regularly assess the mental well-being of our employees through risk evaluations of mental stress and offer mental health training. The Wellbeing Program is complemented by our weekly yoga classes, mobile massages, the JobBike, and our Buddy Program.
