Customer Quality​/APQP

We are the Adaptive Powerhouse for Future Mobility, making it safe, exciting, connected, and autonomous. To achieve this goal, we develop, produce and supply technologically leading and market‑oriented products, hardware, software and modern mobility solutions. In addition, we offer various services. Our diverse portfolio features a multitude of extremely well‑established products and underpins our strong market position. Born from Continental’s Automotive group sector and established as an independent company in September 2025, we are building on decades of expertise while creating something entirely new.

With around 87,000 employees in more than 100 locations worldwide and sales of €19.6 billion in 2024, we are a global technology powerhouse – and at the same time, a company at the exciting beginning of its own journey. Our portfolio spans across cutting‑edge technologies that make mobility safe, connected, exciting, and increasingly autonomous: from sensors and displays to braking and comfort systems, and from advanced software platforms to intelligent driver assistance systems.

But what truly defines AUMOVIO is not only what we do – it’s how we do it. We empower people to take ownership, explore bold ideas, and push boundaries together. Here, you can play an active role in shaping our culture, driving innovation, and writing the next chapter of mobility.
