Your tasks

  • IT plays a particularly important role in industrial food production, whether in ensuring the reliability of hardware, developing applications and tools, or providing the technical framework for traceability. IT specialists ensure that all staff have access to a modern, fully functional IT infrastructure. They also implement additional solutions from various specialist areas.
  • In application development, you will learn how to implement software solutions for new or modified products and processes. In addition to carrying out the testing phase, your responsibilities will include user training and documenting all work steps for support purposes or for the potential further development of the application. Systems engineering involves setting up, integrating and maintaining various IT and network systems. This also includes installing PC workstations, printers, servers and other peripherals, as well as configuring the hardware. Configuring services, shares and permissions, troubleshooting faults, creating data backups and securing all systems against unauthorised access are further tasks you will learn.
  • IT specialists are among the most sought-after professionals in almost every sector. This means you’ll have excellent prospects on the job market once you’ve completed your apprenticeship.

What you bring with you

  • Completed primary school (middle or upper years)
  • Analytical thinking and a very good ability to think abstractly
  • Good maths and language skills (particularly English)
