The Formula 1 Research and Development department produce a wide range of customised and bespoke solutions to support the timing, televising, and organisation of Formula 1 events. We architect and design embedded systems for F1 cars to provide team telemetry and driver/engineer audio, and to deliver on-board video and audio for F1 broadcasters and digital platforms. This is in addition to a variety of other electronics solutions designed by our small inhouse team to support any aspect of an F1 event.
THE ROLE
We are looking for an enthusiastic, focus-driven electronics systems engineer with a passion for all aspects of embedded electronics to complement our small and efficient team of systems, hardware, telemetry, and embedded software engineers.
You will need to have a solid background in electronics engineering with experience in embedded system development with involvement in both hardware (schematic and PCB design and debug), embedded software design (microcontrollers and microprocessors) and strong experience in developing technical documentation such as system, hardware/software requirements, specifications test plans, and test reports.
We are seeking a product-oriented individual who is passionate about managing solutions from conception to deployment. Responsibilities include gathering requirements, guiding the design process, and meticulous documentation. The ideal candidate will collaborate effectively with hardware and software teams to actualise solutions and dedicate themselves to both aspects of development to support our project goals fully.
You should be prepared to research and quickly learn new technologies, processes, strategies, and tools to meet project requirements. While this is not a core travelling role, you may need to attend F1 races to support products during the deployment and handover phases of the projects you work on.
Both Electronics Systems Engineers and Senior Electronics Systems Engineers will be considered to find the right fit for the role.
