About us

HILTES Software GmbH has been developing software solutions for the retail sector for 40 years. We are currently 38 employees and very proud of the cohesion of our employees. We work in a pleasant family team atmosphere. Our youngest team member is 18 years old; our oldest team member is 64 years old.

Diversity is an integral part of our corporate culture and our daily interaction. We are actively committed to an inclusive working environment; 10% of our employees are people with disabilities.

Some employees not only find their favorite colleagues with us, but also real friendships. The "you" is completely natural for us and reflects our open-minded and familiar work culture. But it is not a compulsion, even the "you" is still lived practice. With us, everyone decides for themselves how they want to handle it.

The company HILTES GmbH is owner-managed. It is characterized by a very effective management team with short decision-making paths. Wie celebrated the company's 40th anniversary in 2023.

Our company building is located on the outskirts of the picturesque port town of Leer in Northern Germany directly on the dyke in idyllic nature. Our offices are flooded with light through large floor-to-ceiling windows and offer a fantastic view of the shipping traffic of the river named Ems.

This is what the city of Leer offers you as a leisure activity:

•Cinema

•LaserTag-Arena

•Bowling

•Outdoor Escape

•Minigolf
