EDAG Group is a 8,000-person engineering services firm built around CATIA, MATLAB/Simulink, and embedded systems tooling (FreeRTOS, Yocto, Embedded Linux), now adopting Rust and expanding into LLM applications. The hiring velocity skews heavily toward mid-to-senior engineers (113 of 178 active roles), with infrastructure spread across Germany, Sweden, Italy, and Mexico—reflecting scaled delivery of OEM vehicle electronics, production systems design, and safety-critical defense work. The pain-point list (costing/F-time reduction, supplier coordination, field-error root cause) and active projects (cockpit electronics roadmaps, LLM application development) signal a shift toward cost-optimized, data-driven engineering workflows.
Notable leadership hires: Group Design Lead
EDAG Group is an independent, publicly listed engineering services provider headquartered in Wiesbaden, Germany, with approximately 8,000 employees across 70 global locations. The firm serves automotive OEMs, defense contractors, industrial manufacturers, and public sector clients with end-to-end development and production support: vehicle electronics and electrification, manufacturing facility design, embedded software, simulation and testing, and complex transformation projects. The company employs a 360-degree engineering approach, integrating CAD/CAM (CATIA), embedded platforms (FreeRTOS, Yocto), electrical and thermal simulation (ANSYS, Fluent, STAR-CCM+), and testing frameworks (CANoe, ECU-Test, Polarion) to manage interconnected product and production systems. Active hiring in four countries and internal focus on process capability, compliance assurance, and international stakeholder alignment reflect operational scale in regulated industries.
EDAG Group uses CATIA (design), MATLAB/Simulink (modeling), ANSYS/Fluent (simulation), FreeRTOS/Yocto (embedded), CANoe/Vector tools (vehicle networks), and Jira/Polarion (project and requirements management). The company is adopting Rust and expanding LLM capabilities.
EDAG Group employs approximately 8,000 people across 70 locations globally. The company is publicly listed and was founded in 1969.
