Join our team

Be the heart and mind behind every Škoda model that comes off the production line, and join us in shaping the future of the automotive industry.

What does a Technical Engineer do?

Imagine a car just got off the assembly line, made from components you helped create. It’s a priceless feeling! Become a development engineer and shape our vehicles, from headlights and radiators to chassis and wheels. Or would you prefer to improve the assembly line, plan manufacturing, and streamline automation or logistics? You can also explore the possibilities of Industry 4.0 with us. The entire Volkswagen Group will be by your side – a car is a team project that’s a joy to create.

What abilities should you have?

Reliability, attention to detail, precision, communication, and organizational talent. These are the key skills no technician can do without – after all, the entire production process depends on them. The result of your precise work? Vehicles that will carry your personal touch.

Technical Development

From the first sketch to the final tests. That’s how we would summarize the work of technical development, which plays a crucial role in the creation of every new Škoda Auto model.

At the heart of the department are teams of passionate professionals dedicated to each phase of vehicle development. Whether it’s the initial brief, planning, design, concept development, or the final crash tests and various trials, we always use the most advanced methods and technologies.

Engineering

This department is responsible for ensuring the smooth production of every vehicle. It all starts with the logistics of materials, parts, and components and ends with their assembly. But that’s not all. We design and implement new technologies to bring vehicle electronics to life, transfer insights from extensive analyses into car assembly, or even into a new paint shop. We pride ourselves on using the best technologies and continuously create new positions that cover a wide range of opportunities across various fields.

Production

Production is one of the key departments at Škoda Auto. Without it, none of our models would come to life – whether it’s the electric ENYAQ, the new OCTAVIA, or the KAROQ SUV.

Škoda's modern production plants are not only in Mladá Boleslav but also in Kvasiny and Vrchlabí. Each factory provides a clean and highly modern environment, where automation is seamlessly combined with the precise work of our employees. Our people are always our top priority, and while we use many automated machines in production, the human element remains the most important.

Stories from the world of technology

When working in maintenance, there's never an idle moment

When production comes to a halt at Škoda, the losses immediately jump into the hundreds of thousands of crowns. Vojtěch Bartoníček is one of the technicians responsible for ensuring that breakdowns happen as rarely as possible. And when they do occur, he’s the one who deals with them right away – even if it means working 27 meters above the ground when a bearing seizes up in the tallest car body lift. “Every day is different,” says Vojtěch. “We know how to handle malfunctions.”

One Car per Minute: How Is the Production Flow Managed?

Production is the driving force of an automotive plant. Managing welding shops, paint shops, assembly lines, and other parts of the process is a truly complex task. Lukáš Grus knows this well, he ensures that the production flow runs smoothly – from welding to assembly lines and finally delivery to the customer. He must prevent downtime and, most importantly, make sure that production never comes to a halt. "Every second is precious," he begins.

The Car Market’s Changing. Our Plans Must be Flexible.

As Head of Production at Škoda Auto, he knows that in the automotive world, success belongs to those who are ready for as many scenarios as possible. Together with his team, he does everything he can to ensure that the Mladá Boleslav-based carmaker can weather an unpredictable market and respond flexibly to customer demands. In his free time, he enjoys exploring the history of the automotive industry – a fact hinted at by the photo he uses as a virtual background in video calls.
