Formula One is a high-tech world of fast paced innovation and engineering excellence, and its industry leading standards are not just limited to the pit lane. Whilst Red Bull Technology designs, manufactures, assembles and develops a championship-winning Formula One car week on week, its sister business and high performance vehicle engineering division, Red Bull Advanced Technologies, is applying expert engineering, design, technology, simulation and production capabilities to other sectors.
From hot air balloons to bikes to boats, Red Bull Advanced Technologies takes the same tools, techniques and methods used in F1, the world’s fastest development cycle, to engineering challenges across land, sea and air, and at blistering pace.
Red Bull Advanced Technologies: We envision, conceptualise, create and deliver effective solutions.
Job Description
Red Bull Advanced Technologies has moved on from its pioneering Valkyrie program to work on some of the most ground-breaking projects across the globe.

- Setup optimisation and calibrations using offline simulations and driver-in-the-loop simulators
- Data analysis and correlation between real world and simulation
- Development of control systems strategies such as active suspension or active aerodynamics
- Vehicle and sub-system model development, with real-time implementation for driver-in-the-loop simulator
- Continuous development of simulation and analysis tools
- Communicating effectively with groups such as Aerodynamics and Design to provide them with objective, analysis-based directions and solutions
- To undertake client and supplier liaison, participate in meetings and provide regular updates on project work and outputs as required
To be considered for this Vehicle Dynamics Engineer position, you will:
- Have previous experience within a similar role, ideally within Motorsport or high-performance road cars.
- Be confident in a fast-paced engineering environment.
- Have experience using Matlab, and modelling software such as Simulink or Dymola
- Have good knowledge of Vehicle Dynamics.
