How we check

Every ad is read sentence by sentence. A role is listed here only when the ad is written in English and German is either never mentioned as a language or explicitly marked as not required. Ads that ask for German at any level, list it without saying it is optional, call it a plus, or are written in German are left out. Offers of free German lessons do not count against a role.

We checked the method against 520 tech postings in September 2026, labelled by an AI model with every disagreement reviewed by hand: it caught all 65 that require professional German, and marked none of them as English-only. It reads what the ad says, not what the team speaks day to day. Refreshed daily from company career pages; last updated 8 October 2026.
