Our Digital R&D (DRD) team is responsible for innovative computer-aided solutions for chemical product and application development at Covestro. DRD integrates expertise in materials simulation and computational chemistry as well as competencies in laboratory automation, R&D data science, quantum computing and high performance computing (HPC).

With passion and deep technical expertise, we develop software to map complex R&D processes and connect modern laboratory infrastructure.

You can make a difference with us:

  • You will work with our software architects (m/f/d) in the development of solid and standardized software architecture specifications, especially when backend technologies are involved

  • Together with the team, you will be involved in various software development processes such as maintaining a shared code repository, development in a multi-system landscape, release management, (automated) testing, gradual transition to the operations phase (DevOps). Agile software development activities are also part of your tasks.

  • You are a thought leader in the conceptualization of software. This includes coordinating with project participants from business or IT or translating business requirements into data models and algorithms

  • Software development, including writing requirements documents, source code and documentation, as well as testing, roll-out, bug-fixing and operations is part of your repertoire

  • You interact with end users when recording requirements, product reviews, tests or processing error messages

  • You will also make an active contribution to Covestro's internal developer community ("AppMakers Guild"), e.g. by organizing guild activities, giving presentations, or participating in events

WHAT YOU OFFER

  • What counts for us is your personality! You are like us: curious, courageous and colorful. You want to change things and drive our vision - the fully circular economy - forward together with us.

  • You have a university degree or completed training in the fields of mathematics, computer science, natural sciences, technology (STEM) or similar, as well as several years of professional experience relevant to the role

  • The development of web applications with Java Spring as a backend framework is nobrainer for you and you are familiar with SQL database technologies and with AWS as a cloud provider

  • Fluent German and English skills round off your profile
