Some

Can I use “some” in the second sentence?

- What company does he work for?
- It’s some German company. That’s all I know.

Thank you in advance.

Hi, Yes. It's good and common casual English. The word 'some' often suggests that the speaker does not remember, or does not consider the thing in question important.
