Description
Valeo, a French automotive technology group, announced the creation of over 100 engineering jobs at its site in Czechowice-Dziedzice and has started recruitment. The site is being transformed into one of Valeo’s key European research and development centres for electromobility technologies.
The expansion is linked to the consolidation of specialist knowledge and development projects in selected European locations, including the transfer of some R&D activities to Poland. The new roles will focus on high-voltage electric drives, eAxle and eMotor systems, hydraulic pumps, smart actuators, testing, validation, simulations and prototype development for electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles.
