"What's exciting about my job is that I not only sit in front of a computer all day, but I also deal with a lot of different people."

Our supply chain management is fully integrated in all of our key processes by continuously delivering results in line with business requirements and our corporate quality and environmental goals. Using our excellent management organization and innovative tools and processes, we provide business intelligence for decision-making processes.

To adapt to today’s new automotive landscape, we now design hybrid, electric and combustion powertrains. We do this from the initial concept stage all the way to series production for most of the major vehicle manufacturers in the world. A big part of powertrain development is the mechanical engineering behind it, and this is exactly where you come in.

Working in international automotive markets means understanding not only our comprehensive product portfolio but also the differing needs of our customers in these countries. Adapting to these requirements and taking them into consideration when developing your sales strategy is a vital part of this role.

The hybrid powertrain comprises specific key elements: the combustion engine, transmission, battery, fuel cell, electric motor and control system. Within function development at AVL, our most important task is developing these components in such a way that they can be easily integrated into the vehicle.

Our commissioning engineers ensure that everything on the customer's testbed works harmoniously, while our Global Customer Service team prides itself on ensuring that customers can effectively and efficiently use AVL products and systems.

In terms of technology, innovation and the wide-ranging possibilities they offer the automotive industry, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Driving (AD) are incredibly exciting. We are actively shaping and designing the thrilling new technologies that will play a critical role in future mobility options.

At AVL, our unique understanding of the whole automotive picture makes us the ideal partner for the complete vehicle integration process, from the concept stage and the start of production, all the way to the in-use phase. With our own unique vision, we intend to sustainably shape the future of vehicle integration.
