## About Lucid

At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity. In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience.

We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility.

By enhancing our high-performing network of body shops and fostering strong partnerships with insurers and internal teams, you will play a pivotal role in delivering operational excellence combined with innovative technology.

You will oversee performance, enforce standards, and drive continuous improvement—ensuring every repair meets Lucid’s uncompromising safety and quality requirements.

- Take proactive measures to address underperformance and disengage from non-compliant partners when necessary.

Enable Parts and Distribution

- Collaborate with Parts & Supply Chain teams to optimize body parts distribution processes in Europe.
- Resolve escalations promptly to maintain repair flow.

Ensure Compliance and Standards

- Manage the rollout of diagnostic laptops and specialized tooling to approved shops.
- Oversee estimating platforms (DAT/Audatex), network management systems, and act as subject matter expert for tooling program support and training.
- Lead the network audit program.

## Experience
