Europe's largest automotive distributor across 29 countries
Porsche Holding is a 10,000+ employee automotive wholesale and retail operation spanning Europe, Asia, and Latin America, majority-owned by Volkswagen. The tech stack reveals a legacy SAP + SQL Server foundation (now replacing R/3 with newer modules) layered with modern sales automation (Salesforce, HubSpot) and emerging cloud adoption (AWS, Intune). Hiring velocity is accelerating with 228 roles posted in the last 30 days—heavily weighted toward junior/intern tiers (293 of 509 roles) across sales, engineering, and manufacturing, suggesting aggressive build-out of distribution and IT infrastructure to support geographic expansion.
Notable leadership hires: Software Development Team Lead, Software Development Lead, Lead Manager, Country Service Lead, CRM Team Lead
Porsche Holding distributes vehicles and parts for nine VW Group brands (Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Porsche, Ducati, and others) through dealerships and service centers in 23 European countries plus Chile, Colombia, China, Singapore, Malaysia, and Japan. The business operates four divisions: wholesale distribution, retail dealerships, financial services, and IT systems. Founded in 1947 in Salzburg, the company has grown from a family operation into Europe's largest automotive distributor. Current pain points center on SAP HCM process automation, data warehouse optimization, billing inefficiencies, and disaster recovery readiness—typical friction points for large legacy operations undergoing digital modernization.
Core systems: SQL Server, SAP (replacing R/3), Salesforce (including Service Cloud and Marketing Cloud), HubSpot. Supporting tools: Java, Angular, Spring, Hibernate on the development side; Power BI and Google Analytics for reporting; AWS X-Ray for infrastructure monitoring.
Headquarters in Salzburg, Austria. Operations in 29 countries: 23 in Europe (including Spain, Germany, Poland, Italy, Sweden, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Albania) plus Chile, Colombia, China, Singapore, Malaysia, and Japan.
