For many fans of Formula One, the sport exists between lights and chequered flag on a Sunday afternoon. It begins and ends with the exploits of the drivers on the track. But this is merely the tip of the spear. The reality of modern F1 is that of a complex and intertwined operation, every part of which needs to perform near its limit if success is to be achieved. From the pit crew searching for the ultimate repeatable pit stop, to the inspiration of the designers, the application of engineers and the herculean efforts of an army of fabricators and machinists, Formula One is a team sport in a very literal sense – that's why we love what we do.
Job Description
We’re looking for an inspired and innovative Engineer to guide the structural design of our F1 racing cars.
With a proven track record in engineering analysis and simulation you will join our Structures Analysis Group. Your role will be to analyse, optimise, and refine designs to ensure Red Bull Racing balances absolute performance and reliability.
Based in the heart of our F1 design office you will possess a practical and analytical approach, backed up by a good engineering qualification, and you will be comfortable with both classical ‘hand’ calculations and Finite Element Analysis techniques.
As a Structures Analyst you’ll work closely with the other design groups, aerodynamics, vehicle dynamics, R&D testing, and the race team.
In our quest to win we’re always pushing to utilise the very latest materials, so a broad understanding of metals, composites and plastics would be advantageous.
In return we offer the opportunity to work as part of a successful team in an exciting environment, one where you can often see the results of your work on the racetrack in a matter of days. Working for Red Bull also comes with a whole host of benefits, such as a generous bonus scheme, private healthcare cover, life assurance scheme, workplace nursery, company contributed pension scheme, on-site gym and fitness classes, free food and a cycle to work scheme.
