ABOUT US

Welcome to Daimler Truck! We always drive to progress all those who keep the world moving. Transport is the backbone of our economy and modern life. Without transport, factories could no longer produce anything, supermarkets would have no products to sell and travelling would be unimaginable for people. As a global team, we drive our progress and success together – everyone at Daimler Truck makes a difference. Our commitment to society and the environment, as well as developments such as digitalization, autonomous driving and e‑mobility, determine our daily business.

As the youngest company in the DAX40, we can also look back on a long history that goes back to the pioneering work of Gottlieb Daimler. In Daimler Truck IT, we have the unique chance to completely reshape our IT landscape and business processes with a pioneering mindset – faster, more efficiently and more agile than ever before. Our goal is to optimize internal processes and create real value for our customers and the entire company.

Join the Daimler Truck Global Cyber Security team and jumpstart your learning with hands‑on experience at the forefront of Identity and Access Management.

Identity and Access Management (IAM) forms the backbone of contemporary and future cybersecurity, ensuring robust protection and seamless access control across an organization’s digital landscape. Delve into this technology to build a solid foundation for a promising career in cybersecurity. Join us and enhance both your technical and soft skills in a dynamic and supportive environment.
