Senior CMF Designer
Lead end-to-end CMF work in automotive, shaping production-ready design from concept to launch.
About the Company
At Avaron, you get the security of permanent employment combined with the variety of working at different customers. We place specialists across everything from tech, IT and industry to project management and business support – and whatever the assignment, you have a consultant manager who is there for you and your development.
About the Role
You will shape the color, material, and finish expression for one or more vehicle programs in an advanced automotive environment. From early concept through launch, you will turn CMF strategy into production-ready design solutions that balance creative intent, brand expression, and manufacturing feasibility.
This is a hands-on role with real influence. You will work across design, engineering, visualization, suppliers, and craft disciplines to define both macro themes and detailed elements such as quilting, textures, perforations, and mesh patterns. If you enjoy combining strong visual storytelling with technical depth, this role offers the chance to make a visible impact on products that move from idea to production.
