Your career starts here

At our site in Immenstaad near Friedrichshafen, we develop and manufacture products in the area of Situational Awareness Solutions. Our southernmost location in Germany, with around 420 employees, has been a center for the development and construction of satellites and instruments for scientific space exploration, earth observation and meteorology for more than five decades.

In Oberkochen, around 900 employees have been developing, designing and producing state-of-the-art optical and optronic devices for military, civil and security applications for 80 years. Optronic systems from Oberkochen enable fast and detailed reconnaissance for combat support, border protection and the protection of critical infrastructures. The Oberkochen site is the largest development and production facility of HENSOLDT's Optronics Division. The highly complex sensors for the various platforms for land, air, sea and space missions are manufactured in the production facility for sensor components, the periscope tower and the land and space production facilities.

Taufkirchen in the south of Munich is the headquarters of HENSOLDT. Around 540 HENSOLDT employees work here on highly developed electronic systems to equip ground systems, airplanes and helicopters. The site looks back on a rich tradition in the aerospace industry, associated with names such as Messerschmitt, Bölkow and DASA. In 2019, HENSOLDT built a new extension to Building 88 on the Ludwig Bölkow Campus. It houses the members of the management team and central functions such as HR, finance, legal and communications, as well as laboratories for EW, self-protection and IFF equipment.

More than 3000 employees develop and produce complex security electronics in the internationally renowned radar stronghold at the HENSOLDT site in Ulm . The site focuses on high-frequency technology and has its roots in well-known predecessor companies such as Telefunken, AEG and EADS. A large proportion of the employees are engineers, primarily from the fields of communications engineering and electrical engineering.
