Senior Full-Stack Java Developer

Branch: Humanities Branch: Humanities


The Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) is a globally outstanding centre for fusion research. With around 1100 dedicated employees in Garching near Munich and Greifswald, we are dedicated to researching the foundations for fusion power plants. These power plants generate energy without climate-damaging emissions, are safe, sustainable and almost inexhaustible – similar to the sun. Fusion power plants have the potential to play an important role in the energy supply of future generations. At the IPP site in Greifswald we conduct research at the Großexperiment Wendelstein 7-X. This fusion plant is the world's largest of the Stellarator type. We are currently occupying an important position as Senior Full-Stack Java Developer*in Call number gw25/043 Full time Unlimited
