Motorsport is the world’s only truly competitive engineering discipline, and at the pinnacle of motorsport, Formula One teams get to test their engineering skills every other week against hyper-competitive peers and in front of an audience measured in the hundreds of millions.
Working for Aston Martin Red Bull Racing is fundamentally different to working for any of our competitors. It has the technological prowess and facilities that you would expect from a World Championship-winning F1 team but it also has 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 really doesn’t get any better than the winning feeling of making a real contribution to a grand prix-winning car.
