Sophie, Director Product Excellence
Our Culture
I would describe the culture at d.velop as open, trusting and collegial. As d.velopers, we support each other and share knowledge and ideas – regardless of hierarchy, experience or age. Every opinion counts, and anyone who wants to make a difference is given the space and trust to do so.
What makes me proud
In our product development department, we always start with the customer’s perspective. Based on customer needs, we develop technologies that make our customers’ everyday work easier and more efficient. This customer focus drives us to remain curious, try new things and promote innovation where it is most beneficial. And that is exactly what motivates me every day.
Working internationally
Working with our colleagues from other countries, such as Romania, Austria and the United Kingdom, is extremely exciting and enriching. Their different perspectives allow us to learn a lot from each other, both professionally and culturally. I am convinced that this diversity ultimately helps us achieve better results.
Values that drive me
Trust, responsibility and openness. I had the opportunity to take on responsibility at d.velop at an early stage. New ideas and approaches are not only welcome, but explicitly encouraged. We have various formats that allow scope for creativity and the exchange of ideas. Every individual, regardless of experience and position, is given the opportunity and trust to actively contribute.
My location
Even though you might not expect it, there is a small Silicon Valley here in western Münsterland. In Gescher, we have a modern IT campus with excellent infrastructure and other neighboring IT companies. For me, the d.velop campus is above all a place for meeting and collaborating – from shared breakfast breaks to after-work workouts at the gym.
Colin, Regional Vice President UK
Our Culture
The culture is one of professionalism, combined with support and friendliness.
What makes me proud
Even though d.velop has grown to become the size of a corporate organisation, it has worked hard to maintain the spirit of a privately owned business.
Working internationally
One of the most interesting parts of the business is to engage with colleagues from throughout the world. In the UK alone, we have a true multi-cultural team.

My location
London is an old yet vibrant, multicultural city. However, it can still spring a few surprises!
Nada, Chief People Officer
Our Culture
It feels simple and human: no drama, no egos, just good people doing good work. Respect and kindness are the baseline, and everyone is encouraged to bring their own voice. It’s not about fitting in, it’s about contributing and growing together.
What makes me proud
I’m proud that our work really matters. We’re trusted to shape outcomes, not just follow instructions. And what makes me smile most is the way professionalism and care go hand in hand here.
Working internationally
Our team’s solid international background means each of us brings a distinct perspective shaped by diverse cultures and markets, adding real depth to everything we do. Sometimes it’s a challenge to align, but that’s also where the learning happens.
Values that drive me
Respect, because it creates a safe space where people can be themselves. And audacity, because it takes courage to say “let’s try a different way” and actually make it happen. Both make me feel that my voice matters.
My location
It’s not just an office—it’s a community. You feel seen, heard and supported. There’s laughter, there’s focus, and there’s a shared sense that what we build here has meaning.
Michaela, Management Assistance
