Europe's multi-brand used-car marketplace spanning retail, wholesale, and consumer selling
AUTO1 Group operates three distinct automotive brands across 30+ European markets, processing 690,000 vehicle transactions annually with 6.3 billion EUR in revenue. The hiring mix is heavily skewed toward sales (47 roles), operations (36), and manufacturing (33) rather than engineering (7), reflecting a logistics-and-fulfillment-heavy operation; active projects focus on production scaling, workshop training, and vehicle refurbishment—not platform engineering. The tech stack is mature enterprise (Workday, Oracle ERP, BigQuery, Java/Spring) with ML tooling (PyTorch, TensorFlow) used selectively, and pain points center on process optimization and cost control rather than technical innovation.
Notable leadership hires: Media Lead, Sales Team Lead, Real Estate Lead
