Automotive conglomerate Stellantis has announced it is opening a software development centre in Gliwice, Poland, for which 300 specialists are currently being recruited. This will be the company's fourth such centre in Europe and eighth overall.

The site is situated near a unit where vans from the brands Opel, Peugeot, and Citroen are manufactured. The team within this new Polish centre will focus on core software development, software application development, DevOps and automated validation.
