Group CFO
DNK-Randers, Danish Crown Vej
Software Developer - Production IT
Do you see yourself in a key role where your fingerprints will be on the next generation of business-critical production IT systems(MES)? If so, you might be our next Software Developer.
In this role, you will be a key player in creating a modern platform for our production sites. You’ll work closely with other developers, business consultants and solutions architect to build solutions which turn real-world challenges into smarter ways of working on the shop floor, while creating transparency of operations through data.
With sustainability, digitization, and operational excellence at the core, Danish Crown is undergoing an ambitious business transformation. Our department is the go-to partner when we innovate in one of our 50+ production sites - whether it's introducing new processes or technologies, increasing automation, replacing legacy systems, enhancing traceability with data, or tackling other complex challenges. We take ownership from start to finish - analyzing needs, proposing solutions, creating functional descriptions, and delivering full-scale development and implementation.
Key responsibilities
The ideal candidate
German language skills are considered an advantage, but not a requirement.
What do we offer?
We offer flexibility in work hours and place, autonomy, and the chance to work in a team with great ambitions to digitalize and improve the shop floor. We care about your growth and career goals, and we’ll have an active focus on supporting your development.
We value a flat and informal culture where all voices matter and contributions are expected and appreciated – because the best solutions are created together, with close collaboration between IT and the business. You will have the opportunity to influence and shape our production systems and see the results from slaughtering all the way to the consumer.
Our modern HQ in Randers offers excellent facilities, including a fitness centre, two padel courts, a food shop, and - of course - a great canteen with high-quality food (unsurprisingly!).
Your department: Production – Part of Global IT
You will be part of an informal yet highly professional environment that values mutual trust, respect, responsibility, humor, and good manners.
Production is part of Danish Crown’s Global IT department, headquartered in Randers. Global IT operates as a global IT competence centre for both new and existing solutions, with more than 270 colleagues located in Denmark, Poland, Sweden, and Germany – approximately 150 of whom are based at our Randers HQ.
You will be part of a team of consultants and developers working on systems that keep production running efficiently and provide critical data and traceability – turning operational complexity into actionable insight. We are on a journey to simplify and standardise our production IT landscape, and we are looking for someone who wants to help shape that future.
Your workplace will be at Danish Crown Vej 1, Randers but expect approx. 10-30 travel days as projects require on-site presence.
Appetite for more?
You are welcome to contact Troels Hansen, Senior Manager Software Engineering, Global IT, Production on +45 2015 4994 if you have any questions or if you want to know more about the position.

We look forward to hearing from you!
The Danish Crown Group is a global food processing company and among the largest in its field. The Group is the world’s largest pork exporter and Europe’s largest pork processor. Furthermore, Danish Crown Beef is a significant player in the European beef market.
Just like the crops in the fields continuously change, Danish Crown tirelessly refine and improve how we work, from farm to fork, to ensure good, safe food for people around the world to enjoy. Our history goes back to 1887 and the Danish cooperative movement, and responsibility towards society, our employees and our owners, the farmers, is quite simply in our genes.
As a global leader in meat production, we have big obligations; not just to deliver, but to explore new opportunities. We still have a long way to go and face many challenges. But we remain committed to improving how food is produced - with respect for animals, people and the environment. In this quest, we are prepared to challenge ourselves, the industry and the market.
This journey is not ours alone, but we promise to be the leaders of change.
You will become a part of a strong culture with roots in the Danish co-operative movement, and at all levels of the organization, you will be met by an informal and direct tone.
