We love challenging software projects. And we love working conditions that let us do them really well.

Our latest awards on kununu show that our employees share this commitment:

  • Ranked 5th among Munich’s larger employers
  • Top 100 inthe IT industry in kununu and DIE ZEIT’s “Most Wanted Employer 2026” ranking
  • Named a kununu Top Company forsix consecutive years

A triple achievement we’re thrilled about. But what really makes working at QAware special?

Perhaps it’s that we prefer to share knowledge rather than keep it locked away in individual minds. At QAcampus, in our guilds, or at Engineering Camp, colleagues learn from one another. And sometimes the most exciting discussion begins with a question to which no one yet has an answer.

Perhaps it’s that professional development at QAware takes many different paths. Whether you want to specialize in software engineering, explore new technologies, or take on more responsibility, you’ll find a variety of opportunities here—in engineering, consulting, or management. Switching between these career paths is also possible.

And perhaps it’s because here, you can say:

“I don’t think that’s a good idea.”

We want people to be able to question decisions, openly address mistakes, and acknowledge their own limitations. For us, psychological safety doesn’t mean that everyone always agrees. Different perspectives are expressly encouraged because they help us develop better solutions together.

This aligns with people who have an inventive spirit and take pride in their craft—people who enjoy solving difficult problems, set high standards for their work, and remain curious about other points of view.

Does this work perfectly every day and in every team? No. Our performance reviews also show where we can improve.

That’s why, for us, an open feedback culture also means accepting criticism. We respond to our evaluations, appreciate positive feedback, and address the areas where our employees see room for improvement.

After all, the best solutions rarely come from just one person.
