Senior Aerodynamicists

After more than 60 years away from Formula One, Aston Martin is back on the grid for 2021. Based in Northamptonshire, Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One™ Team has almost 500 passionate people at its heart, making a team with both a rich heritage and a fresh perspective – bringing new energy to the sport with a determination to shake up the order and compete at the sharp end.

 

The Aston Martin era represents the beginning of a new journey for us, but the racer’s attitude and can-do approach remain central pillars in the team’s philosophy. The focus is always on improving performance and delivering results. With fresh investment and energy, the stage is set to build on Aston Martin’s rich history in motorsport and establish Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One™ Team as a competitive force in the years ahead.

To succeed on this mission, the team is looking for talented individuals who share our passion for racing and hunger for competition. It’s a stimulating and rewarding place to work, with pure racing at the core of everything we do. We are building for a strong future and every member of the team will play an important role in our success.

We are a brave and united team who value authenticity, honesty, and are never afraid to question conventions. We embrace these values in ways that reflect our modern world. If you share our racer’s spirit and want to contribute to the next chapter in Aston Martin’s glorious history, please apply and join one of the most exciting projects in Formula One.

We are looking to find the right individuals to join us as Senior Aerodynamicists.

Experience in a similar role in Teams that have finished in the Top 3 of the Formula One Constructors World Championship in recent years will be a distinct advantage.

  • Work within an Aero Development Group to personally and collectively deliver performance from aerodynamic development projects.
  • Use state-of-the-art wind tunnel, CFD, CAD and other relevant methodologies to productively design and evaluate new aerodynamic concepts and their optimisation.
  • Help communicate conclusions and proposals both within and outside your Aero Development Group.
  • Help foster a positive and supportive yet self-effacing culture so we can work efficiently, constructively and productively with each other; learn fast from our valuable mistakes and thereby quickly turn ideas into reality.
  • Help mentor Aerodynamicists in your team and help guide the advancement of our tools and processes.
  • 2:1 or above in Aeronautical Engineering.  If in another field then strong aerodynamic content needs to be evident.  PhD/Masters an advantage.
