🚨 The Challenge
We manage multiple live websites and domain systems at the Chair for Strategy and Organization (TUM). Over the years, things got messy. Projects changed hands. Access got lost. Tech debt piled up.
Now we’re taking back control – and we need your skills to bring old systems back to life.
This is a unique chance to work at the intersection of tech and strategy:
- Fix broken web infrastructure (e.g., restore an old WordPress page that no one could access anymore)
- Collaborate with management and economics researchers
- Learn how research teams handle digital ops and prepare for consulting-style tech audits
This is a perfect gig if you...
- Like to solve practical, real-world problems
- Are curious about consulting or digital strategy roles
- Might consider a career in IT strategy, tech consulting, or interdisciplinary tech projects
- Love a good tech puzzle and can bring structure to digital chaos
🛠 What You’ll Work On
- Bringing downed websites back online
- Auditing our current domain + website structure (WordPress, Notion, Joker.com, LRZ FTP…)
- Setting up backups, cleaning outdated configs, restoring failed services
- Helping us make our IT operations idiot-proof for the next student generation
- Working closely with a team of economists, strategy researchers, and innovation scholars
- Setting best practices and maybe building mini automation tools
🧠 Your Profile
- You study Informatics, Computer Science, or similar
- You’ve played with domains, websites, or hosting before (basic understanding is enough!)
- You like independence + autonomy – we’ll give you context, but you’ll lead the fix
- You’re open to learning about non-technical project goals and enjoy interdisciplinary teamwork
- Bonus: You like laughing at bad IT setups while making them better 😄
🌟 Why Join?
- This is not a boring admin job – you’ll have ownership from day 1
- We’re not IT professionals – you’ll teach us more than we teach you
- You’ll work in a forward-thinking team researching AI, sustainability, and innovation
- You’ll gain cross-functional experience that’s highly relevant for tech-savvy consultants
- And hey – you’ll leave things better than you found them
Sounds like fun?
