Our team
“Shiji genuinely cares about each individual, valuing who they are and the unique strengths they bring.”
After joining Shiji in 2019 through an acquisition, I can speak from my own experience about how Shiji truly invests in its employees. I’ve been given multiple opportunities to grow and progress in my career, supported at every step to take on new challenges and develop new skills. It’s rare to find a company where you feel both respected and encouraged to be your best self.
“I feel one of the best benefits of my job is the amazing people I’m working with and a healthy work-life balance.”
Even with all the travel my job requires, Shiji makes it easy to maintain a great work-life balance. I love working with such positive people and still having time for my passions, like running and learning German. I also enjoy the dynamic 360° project cycle—from preparation to onsite installation, testing, and training—it keeps things exciting and rewarding!
“The idea of combining my passion for travel with a career in IT immediately captivated me.”
When I learned about the cutting-edge technologies Shiji is developing, I knew this was a company I wanted to join. Currently I am a part of BI DevOps team, and I am really excited about the job we do. The tech stack, efficient processes and the attention to security assures me that I am contributing to creating a really cool product.
“Together with an amazing team we deliver advanced applications as part of an innovative hospitality platform.”
At Shiji I have the opportunity to work with great people. The company also provides a great working environment and is focused on quality - quality of product delivered to the customers and quality of technology layer.
“I was looking for a company that truly prioritized the guest experience, and Shiji felt like the perfect fit.”
What’s kept me here is the people and the culture. Shiji’s “in-person first” approach fosters incredible collaboration, both within teams and across regions. It’s rewarding to be part of such a dynamic, supportive environment. What motivates me most is seeing the tangible impact of our work on our clients.
“If someone had ever told me that I would work in IT, I would have been more than surprised. But here you go.”
Even though my experience with IT was minimal, I am glad that my potential was noticed, thanks to which I was able to get promoted and eventually became a team leader of the Support team, so I can also share my knowledge and experience in both hospitality and support.
“Reflecting on my journey over the past 20 years fills me with pride and gratitude.”
Witnessing our collective growth and evolution, both professionally and personally, has been incredibly rewarding. Here, we believe that a strong team spirit and a positive attitude are the foundations of our success. No matter your role, if you bring enthusiasm and a collaborative mindset, you will always find a warm welcome and support from us.
“It has been a transformative experience with endless opportunities to grow, alongside some truly talented people.”
What began as a temporary role as an intern evolved into a fulfilling career in the Product department, thanks to the trust and mentorship of our leadership team. What I love most about my job is collaborating with my team - listening, learning, and helping them reach their full potential. Their success is my success.

From trade fairs to team gatherings, Shiji fosters collaboration, creativity, and shared experiences that strengthen our culture.
