Motorsport is a focussed engineering discipline and in Formula One the teams get to test their engineering skills every other week against hyper-competitive peers.
Working for Red Bull Technology is fundamentally different to working for any of our competitors, and different to other engineering placements: With the technological prowess and facilities you'd expect from a Formula One team, we have an atmosphere that is uniquely Red Bull. Team spirit is the foundation of everything we do, because every job makes a vital contribution to developing and racing our Formula One cars. The work is demanding and the pace of development is so fast your feet will barely touch the ground – but job satisfaction doesn’t get any better than the feeling of making a real contribution to the function of our grand prix cars.
