Talent Pool: Mechanical Design Engineering Opportunities (All Levels) Full Time NEW

Mechanical Design Engineering Opportunities (All Levels)

Brackley, UK

Every component of a Formula 1 car represents thousands of hours of design thinking, iteration, and engineering craft. Before a part reaches the manufacturing shop floor, let alone the race car, it begins life in our Mechanical Design group: a team dedicated to creating robust, lightweight, high performance solutions that help unlock every fraction of a second.

If you’re passionate about solving complex mechanical problems, thrive in a fast paced engineering environment, and are motivated by the idea of contributing to world leading race car design, we invite you to join our Mechanical Design Engineering Talent Pool.

What Future Opportunities May Involve

By registering your interest, you’ll be considered for roles across multiple seniority levels. Typical responsibilities may include:

• Designing components and systems across both metallic and composite domains, from concept to car integration
• Generating high quality 3D models, assemblies, and detailed manufacturing drawings
• Supporting or leading test and validation programmes to ensure performance and reliability
• Managing reliability of assigned systems throughout their lifecycle and supporting trackside or rig based investigations
• Collaborating closely with internal and external manufacturing teams to deliver fully integrated, performance optimised designs
• Applying first principles thinking, materials knowledge, and sound engineering judgement to create efficient and innovative solutions
• At senior/lead levels: driving design direction, mentoring engineers, influencing system architecture, and leading large or complex projects

What We Typically Look For

Successful candidates for these roles often bring:

For Engineers:

• A degree in mechanical, automotive, aeronautical engineering, or similar (2:1 minimum)
• Strong fundamentals in mechanical design, materials, and manufacturing techniques
• Experience in 3D CAD (e.g., CATIA V5/3DX) and associated surfacing/solid modelling
• Understanding of design principles, structural integrity and engineering calculations
• Familiarity with FEA tools and methodologies (experience with CATIA V5/3DX FEA advantageous)
• Practical problem solving skills and an enthusiasm for high performance engineering environments

For Senior Engineers:

• Proven delivery of mechanical design projects from concept through to real world application
• Experience improving design workflows, modelling efficiency, or validation methods
• Strong analytical skills, capable of diagnosing design or test issues and driving to a resolution
• Broader systems understanding, ideally with exposure to reliability engineering, materials development, or advanced analysis
• Ability to mentor junior colleagues and influence technical decisions within a project area

For Lead Engineers:

• Ownership of major design areas, projects, or systems across the car
• Experience defining technical direction, challenging existing approaches, and driving design strategy
• Leadership in cross functional collaboration, ensuring alignment between design, manufacturing, test, and trackside groups
• Ability to mentor and grow capability within the team
• Deep understanding of F1level mechanical systems, performance trade offs, and integrated design philosophies
• Across all levels, we value engineers who combine creativity with discipline, enjoy pushing boundaries, and thrive in an environment where precision, pace, and collaboration are essential.
