We have an exciting opportunity for a Strategy Engineer to join our Trackside Performance Group.
This predominantly factory based role will support all members of the department, in particular, the Senior Strategy Engineer.
The successful candidate will assist in pre-event preparation, in-event support from our Mission Control room and post event analysis. As part of the Strategy team, you will be assigned to one of our cars at the track. The successful candidate will also be involved in developing the tools used to optimise strategy and the car operation; this will require significant data analysis and the development of new analysis methodologies, software tools and techniques.
