France's top automotive distributor: new/used vehicles, parts logistics, dealer software
GEMY Automobiles is a large French automotive retailer built around vehicle distribution (Stellantis and Renault brands across 40+ locations) plus three adjacent B2B services: parts logistics (Logipar), vehicle reconditioning (Autoprepar), and dealer management software (Progicar). The tech stack is PHP/Symfony/Vue with GitLab CI/CD—a traditional enterprise web foundation—and hiring is heavily weighted toward sales (59 roles) and operations (40), with engineering (16 roles) split between backend API refactoring and Vue 3 migration, indicating a shift toward modernizing internal dealer tooling while scaling front-line vehicle sales.
