Motorsports-derived EV powertrains, batteries, and prototypes for automotive OEMs
Podium Advanced Technologies applies three decades of motorsports engineering expertise to electric and hybrid powertrain development for production vehicles. The stack—Simulink, MATLAB, CATIA, Codesys—reflects embedded systems and controls maturity; active projects span battery management systems, production-line validation, and ISO compliance. Hiring remains engineering-focused (11 of 15 roles) with decelerating velocity and mid-level dominance, suggesting consolidation around core capability rather than rapid expansion.

Podium Advanced Technologies is a 51–200-person automotive engineering firm headquartered in Pont-Saint-Martin, France, founded in 2011. The company specializes in high-performance powertrains—conventional, hybrid, and full-electric—plus integrated battery systems for prototype, motorsports, and low-volume production. They serve OEM and motorsports customers with end-to-end services: powertrain simulation and controls (Simulink, MATLAB), CAD design (CATIA, Solidworks), embedded software (C/C++, Codesys), battery pack design and management, and prototype build-and-test. Current work centers on battery production-line validation, MES integration, and safety compliance (ISO 45001, ISO 26262).
Core tools include Simulink and MATLAB for modeling, CATIA and Solidworks for CAD, Codesys for embedded controls, C/C++ for implementation, and Siemens MES for production monitoring. They also employ PLM systems and follow ASPICE and ISO 26262 standards for functional safety.
Active projects include Simulink model development, embedded C implementation, battery management system design, battery production-line validation, MES integration, and ISO 45001 safety compliance. New work targets high-voltage lithium-ion battery design and campus energy efficiency mapping.
