Ausbildung bei MAPAL

Philipp Rottenbiller erzählt, was ihn an der Ausbildung zum Fachinformatiker für Anwendungsentwicklung reizt.

Das Bild zeigt Philipp Rottenbiller, Auszubildender zum Fachinformatiker für Anwendungsentwicklung bei MAPAL in Aalen.

Im Aalener Headquarter wird hinter den Kulissen kontinuierlich an der bestmöglichen Experience gefeilt. Als Auszubildender für Anwendungsentwicklung unterstützt Philipp seine MAPAL Mitarbeiter:innen auf technischer Ebene.

„Ob Software-Paketieren, Programmieren oder Problemlösung im IT-Support. Ich mag einfach die Bandbreite, die mir dieser Beruf in Aussicht stellt“, berichtet Philipp begeistert über seinen abwechslungsreichen Tätigkeitsbereich im IT Client Management.
Im Zuge seiner Realschulausbildung hat er sich 2018 zunächst für den Beruf des Zerspanungsmechanikers interessiert und sogar ein einwöchiges Praktikum bei MAPAL absolviert. Das Unternehmen war ihm schon immer ein Begriff, da einer seiner Familienangehörigen ebenfalls hier arbeitet. Doch als er im vorletzten Jahr mit Python seine erste Programmiersprache erlernte, war für ihn schnell klar, welche Richtung er beruflich einschlagen möchte. „Mich fasziniert, dass man in der Programmierung immer erst mal vor Herausforderungen gestellt wird und die Aufgabe darin besteht, Lösungen zu finden. IT ist für mich die Zukunft. In der Programmierung kann man fast alles machen. Und damit auch fast alles erreichen“, begründet er den Gedanken hinter seiner Entscheidung. 

„Wenn man fürs Programmieren brennt und Spaß daran hat, ist es der richtige Beruf. Und wer sich für IT interessiert und etwas bewegen möchte, ist bei MAPAL genau an der richtigen Adresse.“

Between software packaging and troubleshooting

He usually starts his working day at 7am. He's happy to be there so early so that he has more of the day to himself once work is over. However, there is no 'typical working day' for Philipp. It all depends on which area he is working in at the time. The first year of training is the same for all newcomers in IT. During this year, there's no distinction between system integration and application development, as the focus is always on the basics. For example, trainees learn how a PC is put together and how to familiarise themselves with the network and IT infrastructure. In the first year of training, they also work in IT Service where they often receive tickets from MAPAL colleagues from all over the world who need help with technical issues. "Anything can happen on the IT hotline. There are days that are more stressful than others because there is a high number of callers or error messages occur that you've never seen before. Certainly, there are other days that are much more relaxed", Philipp summarises. Most recently, he has been working primarily in IT Client Management. There, he packaged software – in other words, rewrote data packages so that they are suitable for automatic distribution to all of the computers in the company. He greatly enjoys the combination of providing direct support and the calmer, more focused activities. As for now, he's particularly looking forward to his next placement: programming in application development.

Quenching a thirst for knowledge

"MAPAL is a family company which operates globally. I noticed that right from the very beginning", Philipp reveals. "The atmosphere is unique. My colleagues always have a sympathetic ear for me and are incredibly helpful." In the dynamic world of IT, ongoing training is crucial. Philipp does a lot to keep up to date. He frequently takes part in full-day workshops on certain subjects which take place at the MAPAL Academy. He has recently learnt about the Cloud computing platform Azure. His passion also spills over into his free time. He currently hosts his own web server, develops a database-based online portal and educates himself with online tutorials. However, he also likes to properly unwind in nature. When he isn't running through lines of code, he zips through the countryside on his mountain bike.

Motivation is key

"You don't have to be good at maths to learn programming. It's much more important to be able to think logically", Phillip says, advising everyone who is interested in training to become an app developer but is still unsure whether they meet the academic requirements. "If programming excites you and you enjoy it, it's the right career path for you. For anyone interested in working in IT, MAPAL is the right place to start", Phillip says, enthusiastically recommending his employer.
