Yes—EVs and self-driving may be exciting to some. But the entire industry is transforming: how vehicles are designed, built, sold, serviced, powered, and recycled.
What’s ahead:
- Software-Defined Vehicles: Cars updated like smartphones—opening jobs in software, cyber, and testing.
- EV & Battery Plants: New jobs in assembly, quality, and recycling.
- Dealerships 2.0: Data-driven service bays and EV-ready techs.
- New Models: Fleets, subscriptions, and connected services need innovators.
- Upskilling: Training programs are growing to prepare YOU.
What this means for you: Auto careers now blend tech + trade + teamwork. Whether you choose engineering, supply chain, or skilled trades, you’ll touch software, data, and sustainability.
