The center focuses on the design and development of Lear products, including complex seating mechanisms and structures, foams, coatings, plastics, and trim components. The vision for Plzen is not to work as an internal supplier for our European business units but to develop into a leading Design and Development Center working on projects for all major European OEM customer groups from concept phase through to delivery.

Plan, design, and coordinate follow-up launches and engineering changes up to SOP (Start of Production). Support the technical aspects of the production process and translate BMW requirements into all CKD plants. Support interdisciplinary teams and actively contribute to end-to-end product development activities. Perform root cause analyses, define corrective actions, and ensure their implementation and effectiveness. Provide technical support to the Sales department during offer and quotation preparation. Coordinate on-site deployment dates with the customer for process approvals and re-qualifications. Be willing to travel to all CKD partner plants, up to approximately 5 months per year. ### Experience Requirements Successfully completed technical education or an engineering degree (or a comparable field of study).
