Key Takeaways

  • There is no standalone 'Delphi Technologies' employer in Poland anymore — every former Delphi site now reports to BorgWarner Inc., and you apply through BorgWarner's Workday at borgwarner.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/BorgWarner_Careers.
  • Confirm which legal entity owns the role before signing: BorgWarner (most former Delphi sites), PHINIA (fuel-injection lines spun out July 2023), or Aptiv (the separate 2017 split that kept active safety / mobility). The Workday domain on the apply button is the cleanest signal.
  • The Krakow Tech Center is the most attractive lane today — strong R&D, EV pivot funding, English-language work environment, hybrid schedule, and good Glassdoor sentiment for engineering roles in controls, embedded SW, functional safety, and power electronics.
  • Plant roles in Blonie, Ostrów Wielkopolski, Rzeszów, Tychy, Tczew, and Gdynia run on a separate Polish-language hiring track with shorter cycles, three-shift patterns, and active NSZZ Solidarność / OPZZ representation. Submit a Polish-language CV.
  • Workday rewards a single, persistent, well-maintained candidate profile. Multiple fragmented profiles hurt you; a clean profile with corrected parser output and active job alerts works for you across every BorgWarner site globally.
  • Standards literacy is non-negotiable for engineering roles: IATF 16949, ISO 26262 (with ASIL depth), ASPICE, ISO 21434. Foreground specific tools by name and version (MATLAB/Simulink, Vector CANoe, dSPACE, INCA, AUTOSAR Classic vs Adaptive).
  • BorgWarner is in the middle of a multi-year EV powertrain pivot ('Charging Forward'), and 2024–2025 brought further restructuring announcements. Ask directly in the final round about your site's investment plan, headcount trajectory, and any pending spin-out exposure for the line you are joining.

About Delphi Technologies Poland

Delphi Technologies Poland operates today as part of BorgWarner Inc., the U.S. propulsion supplier headquartered in Auburn Hills, Michigan that acquired the Delphi Technologies powertrain business in October 2020 for approximately USD 3.3 billion. The 'Delphi Technologies' name still carries weight inside engineering communities and on long-tenured Polish employees' badges, but legally and operationally, every Polish site that once flew the Delphi flag now reports up through BorgWarner. If you are researching Delphi as a target employer in Poland, the practical answer is: you are applying to BorgWarner, on BorgWarner's Workday system, against BorgWarner's hiring criteria, even though the recruiter on the call may still casually say 'Delphi Krakow' or 'the old Delphi plant in Ostrów'. The Polish footprint inherited from Delphi is substantial. The Tech Center Kraków remains one of the most important engineering R&D nodes inside the BorgWarner global network, focused on powertrain electronics, controllers (engine, transmission, hybrid, EV), embedded software, functional safety (ISO 26262), and increasingly EV power electronics, on-board chargers, and inverters as the company pivots its 'Charging Forward' strategy toward eMobility. The plant network in Ostrów Wielkopolski, Tychy, Tczew, and Gdynia historically produced wiring harnesses, ignition components, fuel injection systems, and turbo machinery; some of these lines have been reorganized, divested, or rebadged since the acquisition, and a portion of the legacy fuel-injection business in particular was spun out into PHINIA Inc. in July 2023, which now operates several former Delphi sites as an independent NYSE-listed company. What that means for you as a candidate in 2026: confirm which legal entity you are applying to before you sign anything. A 'Delphi' job ad recirculated by an aggregator may actually be a BorgWarner role, a PHINIA role, or, for some sensor and electronics lines, an Aptiv role (Aptiv being the separate company that split from Delphi Corporation back in 2017 and kept the mobility/active safety business). The clearest signal is the Workday URL the apply button sends you to: borgwarner.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com means BorgWarner; phinia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com means PHINIA; jobs.aptiv.com means Aptiv. Each has its own ATS, its own pay scale, its own works council relationship, and its own product roadmap. The roles, expectations, and culture in this guide refer specifically to BorgWarner-side Polish operations, which is where the bulk of the former Delphi Technologies headcount now sits, with strong NSZZ Solidarność and OPZZ trade union representation at the plant sites.

Application Process

  1. 1
    Start at borgwarner

    Start at borgwarner.com/careers and click 'Job Search'. The widget on that page is a thin wrapper around BorgWarner's Workday tenant at borgwarner.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/BorgWarner_Careers, so you can also go straight to Workday and filter by Country = Poland to see every PL opening (Kraków, Blonie/Błonie, Rzeszów, Ostrów Wielkopolski, Tychy, Tczew, Gdynia).

  2. 2
    Create a Workday candidate profile with a real, monitored email address

    Create a Workday candidate profile with a real, monitored email address. Workday is shared across all BorgWarner sites globally, so the profile you build for a Krakow controls engineering role is the same profile that will surface to recruiters in Auburn Hills, Stuttgart, and Pune. Keep it polished.

  3. 3
    Upload your CV as a PDF and let Workday parse it into the structured profile fie

    Upload your CV as a PDF and let Workday parse it into the structured profile fields, then immediately go back and correct the parser's mistakes. Workday's parser is mediocre on Polish-language CVs, polish (no pun intended) the auto-filled work history, dates, and skills sections by hand or your application will look incomplete to the recruiter even though your PDF is fine.

  4. 4
    For Krakow Tech Center engineering roles (controls, embedded SW, functional safe

    For Krakow Tech Center engineering roles (controls, embedded SW, functional safety, EV power electronics, model-based design), expect a recruiter screen in English within 1 to 3 weeks if you match. For plant roles in Blonie/Ostrów/Tychy/Tczew/Gdynia, the screen will usually be in Polish and turnaround can be faster (1 to 7 days) for production operator and technician openings.

  5. 5
    After the recruiter screen, the next step is a hiring manager technical intervie

    After the recruiter screen, the next step is a hiring manager technical interview, then typically a panel with 2 to 4 cross-functional engineers or team leads. For software/embedded roles you should expect a take-home or live coding exercise (often C, sometimes C++, MATLAB/Simulink for model-based design roles, Python for tooling). Functional safety roles will probe ISO 26262 ASIL decomposition in detail.

  6. 6
    Offers from BorgWarner Poland are issued in writing through Workday and, for eng

    Offers from BorgWarner Poland are issued in writing through Workday and, for engineering roles, are typically umowa o pracę (employment contract) with a 3-month probation period; some contractor-style B2B arrangements exist for senior specialists but are not the default. Review the non-compete and IP assignment clauses carefully — they are written for a U.S.-headquartered employer and can be broader than what Polish candidates expect.

  7. 7
    Background checks (employment verification, education verification, criminal rec

    Background checks (employment verification, education verification, criminal record certificate / zaświadczenie o niekaralności for some roles) are run by an external vendor after offer acceptance. Do not give notice at your current employer until the background check clears in writing.

  8. 8
    Onboarding is hybrid for Krakow Tech Center (typically 2 to 3 days/week on-site

    Onboarding is hybrid for Krakow Tech Center (typically 2 to 3 days/week on-site at the Kraków campus near Bonarka or Quattro Business Park area) and fully on-site for plant roles. You will get a BorgWarner laptop, a borgwarner.com email, and access to the global Workday, ServiceNow, and Microsoft 365 tenant on day one.

Resume Tips for Delphi Technologies Poland

recommended

Mirror the exact role title from the Workday job posting in your CV summary line

Mirror the exact role title from the Workday job posting in your CV summary line. BorgWarner's recruiters search Workday's internal candidate database by job-title keywords constantly, and a CV that says 'Embedded Software Engineer — Powertrain Controls' will surface where 'Senior Developer' will not.

recommended

Quantify automotive-relevant impact: PPM defect reductions, line OEE improvement

Quantify automotive-relevant impact: PPM defect reductions, line OEE improvements, software memory footprint reductions on target MCU, ASIL-B/D items closed, customer (OEM) milestones hit (PPAP, SOP, A/B/C-sample). BorgWarner is a Tier 1 supplier and its hiring managers think in OEM program milestones.

recommended

List the specific tools and standards you have used by name and version where re

List the specific tools and standards you have used by name and version where relevant: MATLAB/Simulink (with version), Vector CANoe/CANalyzer, dSPACE, INCA, ETAS, AUTOSAR Classic vs Adaptive, ISO 26262 (and which ASIL levels), ASPICE level (and which level you have been audited at), IATF 16949, A-SPICE, Polarion, JIRA, DOORS.

recommended

If you are applying to a Polish plant role, submit a Polish-language CV alongsid

If you are applying to a Polish plant role, submit a Polish-language CV alongside the English one. Krakow Tech Center recruiters work in English by default, but plant HR in Ostrów, Blonie, Tychy, Tczew, and Gdynia will assess Polish-language candidates faster when the CV is in Polish, and operator-level roles are screened almost exclusively in Polish.

recommended

Include a short, honest 'Companies / programs' line for each role: which OEM customer (VW Group, Stellantis, Ford, Hyundai-Kia, Volvo Cars, etc.), which platform, which production volume. This is the language Tier 1 hiring managers think in and it instantly signals you understand the supplier-OEM dynamic.

recommended

If you held a 'Delphi Technologies' role between 2017 and 2020 (post-Aptiv split

If you held a 'Delphi Technologies' role between 2017 and 2020 (post-Aptiv split, pre-BorgWarner acquisition), label it cleanly: 'Delphi Technologies (acquired by BorgWarner, 2020)'. This avoids the recruiter pattern-matching you to the wrong successor entity (Aptiv, PHINIA, or BorgWarner) and saves a clarifying email.

recommended

For EV-track roles (electric drive motors, inverters, on-board chargers, power e

For EV-track roles (electric drive motors, inverters, on-board chargers, power electronics, eMobility battery systems), foreground SiC/GaN power semiconductor experience, high-voltage safety qualifications (PN-EN 50110, NFPA 70E equivalents), and any experience with the BorgWarner-acquired technologies (Cascadia Motion, Rhombus Energy, AKASOL battery systems, Hubei Surpass Sun Electric).

recommended

Avoid gimmicks

Avoid gimmicks. BorgWarner Workday auto-rejects nothing on style grounds, but recruiters at a global Tier 1 see thousands of CVs and the ones that get a callback are clean, single-column, dates aligned, sections labeled in English (or Polish for plant roles), and PDF — not Word, not Canva, not infographic.

ATS System: Workday

BorgWarner Inc. — the parent company of every former Delphi Technologies Polish site — runs its global recruiting on Workday, hosted at borgwarner.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com under the 'BorgWarner_Careers' site. The widget embedded on borgwarner.com/careers/job-search is a styled front-end that posts to the same Workday backend. There is no separate 'Delphi' ATS, no Polish-only careers portal, and no SAP SuccessFactors instance for Poland — it is one Workday tenant, globally, in English by default with selectable locale. Job IDs follow the format Rxxxx-xxxx (for example R2026-1452) and persist as the canonical identifier across the recruiting funnel.

  • Use a single, persistent Workday profile. If you apply to multiple BorgWarner roles in Poland (or anywhere globally), use the same login. Recruiters can see all your applications and a fragmented presence across 3 different profiles looks like 5 different people, none of whom are fully qualified.
  • Let the PDF parser auto-fill the work history, then manually correct it. The parser frequently mangles Polish characters in city names (Łódź, Wrocław, Ostrów) and miscategorizes employment dates if you used DD.MM.YYYY format. Switch to YYYY-MM in your CV to make the parser's job easier.
  • Save searches and turn on email alerts inside Workday rather than relying on the borgwarner.com careers page — the careers page widget is cached and lags the underlying Workday data by hours. Workday alerts are real-time.
  • After applying, check the application status by logging back into Workday. 'Under Consideration' means a recruiter has triaged it; 'In Progress' means it has moved to a hiring manager queue; 'Not Selected' is the closeout. BorgWarner does not always email a rejection — log in to verify.
  • When uploading documents, attach the CV, a Polish-language CV (if applying to a plant role), and a short cover letter as separate files. Workday allows multiple attachments and the recruiter sees all of them. A separate cover letter still helps for senior roles and for transitions between functions (e.g., aerospace to automotive).

Interview Culture

Interview culture at the former Delphi Technologies Polish sites varies sharply by location.

The Krakow Tech Center runs an English-language, technically rigorous, Western-corporate process: a recruiter screen, a hiring manager interview, a 2-to-4 person panel that probes both depth (your specific tools, standards, code) and breadth (system thinking, OEM customer awareness, ASPICE/ISO 26262 fluency), and for software/embedded roles a take-home or live exercise. Expect behavioral questions in the STAR format, pulled from the BorgWarner 'Beliefs' (Inclusion, Integrity, Excellence, Responsibility, Collaboration), and at least one stakeholder question about how you handled an OEM escalation, a missed milestone, or a cross-site engineering dispute. The plant sites in Blonie/Błonie, Ostrów Wielkopolski, Rzeszów, Tychy, Tczew, and Gdynia run a more traditional Polish manufacturing process: shorter, often Polish-language, focused on shift availability, prior production or maintenance experience, and basic technical assessment for skilled trades (electricians, maintenance technicians, quality auditors, line leaders). NSZZ Solidarność and OPZZ are present at most of the plant sites, and shop-floor candidates should expect questions about willingness to work three-shift patterns and weekends. Across both tracks, the recurring honest signal from current and former employees on Glassdoor and Pracuj.pl is that the Krakow Tech Center is well-regarded for engineering quality and learning opportunities, while the plants have been under steady cost pressure since the acquisition and through the 2024 BorgWarner restructuring announcements. Ask directly in your final-round interview about site-level investment plans, the EV pivot, and any pending PHINIA-style spin-out activity for the line you are joining.

What Delphi Technologies Poland Looks For

  • Demonstrable Tier 1 automotive supplier experience or a credible adjacent path (defense, aerospace, industrial automation, consumer electronics manufacturing) that shows you understand high-volume, regulated, customer-program-driven engineering.
  • Fluency with the standards stack: IATF 16949 (quality management), ISO 26262 (functional safety, with ASIL level depth for SW/HW roles), ASPICE (process maturity, level 2 minimum for SW), ISO 21434 (cybersecurity), and increasingly ISO/SAE 21448 SOTIF for advanced controls.
  • For Krakow Tech Center engineering roles: working English (B2+ minimum, C1 preferred for senior/lead roles) and the ability to work cross-site with U.S., German, Indian, and Chinese teams in different time zones without dropping balls.
  • For plant roles: working Polish (native or near-native), willingness to commit to three-shift patterns where required, and verifiable trade qualifications (SEP electrical certifications, forklift / UDT licenses, welding qualifications) where relevant to the role.
  • EV-track competence is the strongest tailwind in 2026: power electronics (SiC/GaN), high-voltage safety, electric drive motor design, inverter control, on-board charger architecture, battery management systems, and software for EV powertrain controllers. BorgWarner's 'Charging Forward' strategy explicitly funds these lanes.
  • Functional safety culture: candidates who can talk fluently about safety goals, safety requirements decomposition, FMEDA, FTA, dependent failure analysis, and the documentation overhead of an ASIL-D item — without rolling their eyes — are visibly preferred over candidates who treat safety as a paperwork exercise.
  • Track record of shipping to OEM milestones (A/B/C-sample, PPAP, SOP) on at least one production program. BorgWarner hires for delivery, not for theory; a candidate who has missed a milestone and can talk honestly about why is more credible than one who claims everything went smoothly.
  • Cultural alignment with the post-acquisition BorgWarner identity rather than nostalgia for 'old Delphi'. Hiring managers notice when a candidate spends the interview lamenting how much better things were before 2020 — it reads as a flight risk and a culture-fit miss.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Delphi Technologies Poland still hiring in 2026?
Yes, but under the BorgWarner brand. Every former Delphi Technologies Polish site is now part of BorgWarner Inc., and active openings are posted on BorgWarner's Workday tenant at borgwarner.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/BorgWarner_Careers. As of April 2026 there are 9+ open roles in Poland across the Krakow Tech Center and the plant network, ranging from production operators to senior engineering and management positions. The 'Delphi' name still appears in job descriptions for legacy product lines but the employment contract you sign will be with a BorgWarner Polish legal entity.
What ATS does BorgWarner / former Delphi Technologies use for Poland?
Workday, hosted at borgwarner.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com under the 'BorgWarner_Careers' site name. The widget on borgwarner.com/careers/job-search is a styled front-end that calls the same Workday backend, so you can apply via either path — both create the same Workday candidate profile. There is no Polish-only careers portal and no separate Delphi ATS.
Is Delphi Technologies the same company as Aptiv?
No. Delphi Corporation split into two independent NYSE-listed companies in December 2017: Aptiv plc (active safety, autonomous driving, signal & power) and Delphi Technologies plc (powertrain, electronics, fuel injection). Aptiv remains independent today. Delphi Technologies was acquired by BorgWarner in October 2020 for approximately USD 3.3 billion. So a 'Delphi' role in Poland in 2026 is a BorgWarner role; an Aptiv role is a separate employer with its own careers site at jobs.aptiv.com.
What about PHINIA — is that still part of Delphi / BorgWarner?
PHINIA Inc. was spun off from BorgWarner in July 2023 and trades independently on the NYSE under ticker PHIN. PHINIA holds the former Delphi Technologies fuel systems and aftermarket business, including some sites and product lines that originally came from Delphi. If a job ad mentions 'fuel injection systems' or 'aftermarket parts' specifically, check whether the apply URL points to phinia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com (PHINIA) or borgwarner.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com (BorgWarner). They are different employers with different pay scales and benefits.
What language are interviews conducted in for the Krakow Tech Center?
English by default for all engineering and corporate roles. The Krakow Tech Center is integrated into BorgWarner's global engineering network and routinely collaborates with sites in the U.S., Germany, India, and China, so working English (B2+) is required and C1 is preferred for senior or lead roles. Polish is useful socially and for navigating local logistics but is not a hiring criterion for Tech Center engineering positions.
What language are interviews conducted in for the plant sites (Ostrów, Blonie, Tychy, Tczew, Gdynia)?
Predominantly Polish for production operator, technician, skilled trades, and shift supervisor roles. Mid-level and senior plant engineering, quality, and management roles often run a hybrid Polish/English process because they interface with the global BorgWarner organization. Submit a Polish-language CV for any plant role; submit both Polish and English CVs for plant engineering and management positions.
Are there trade unions at the former Delphi Polish plants?
Yes. NSZZ Solidarność and OPZZ both have presence at the former Delphi Polish plants and have negotiated collective agreements (zakładowy układ zbiorowy pracy) at several sites. Union representation is normal and protected under Polish labor law. If you join a plant, expect to be informed of your right to join the union during onboarding; engineering and corporate roles at the Krakow Tech Center are typically not unionized.
Is BorgWarner planning further spin-offs or restructuring that could affect Polish sites?
Possibly. BorgWarner has been executing a multi-year 'Charging Forward' strategy that pivots toward EV propulsion (electric motors, inverters, on-board chargers, battery systems) and away from internal combustion content. The PHINIA spin-off in July 2023 was the most visible step, and management commentary in 2024–2025 has signaled continued portfolio review. Ask directly in your final-round interview about your specific site's and product line's investment plan over the next 24–36 months — it is a fair and expected question.
What does compensation look like at the Krakow Tech Center?
BorgWarner does not publish salary ranges in Polish job ads as a default, but Glassdoor and pracuj.pl crowd-sourced data places mid-level Krakow embedded software, controls, and functional safety engineers in the range of roughly 14,000–22,000 PLN gross per month on umowa o pracę, with senior and lead roles extending higher and B2B contractor arrangements priced separately. Salary depends heavily on specialty (EV power electronics commands a premium in 2026), seniority, and English level. Confirm the band with the recruiter before accepting an interview slot.
How long does the BorgWarner Poland hiring process typically take?
For Krakow Tech Center engineering roles, expect 4 to 8 weeks from initial application to written offer: 1–3 weeks for the recruiter screen, 1–2 weeks for the hiring manager and panel interviews, 1 week for the take-home or live exercise (where used), and 1–2 weeks for offer drafting and approvals. Plant operator and technician roles can move much faster — sometimes 1 to 2 weeks end-to-end during peak hiring cycles. Background checks add 1–2 weeks after offer acceptance.
