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. Much of our success is thanks to the diversity of thought and spectrum of skill sets held within the team, our ability to recognise unique contributions from individual team members is just a part of why we love what we do.
Job Description

Red Bull Powertrains are committed to supporting the development of all successful applicants and your aptitude and willingness to learn is more important than specific skills or experience.
Based on our Milton Keynes campus, you will be responsible for running a wide range of fluid and thermal analyses, while working closely with other teams across Red Bull Powertrains to deliver maximum performance and flawless reliability. To be successful you must have knowledge of fluid or thermal analyses and be capable of working on multiple projects simultaneously.

- Mechanical Engineering degree or equivalent qualification
- Knowledge and understanding of fluid or thermal analysis and its contribution to reliability or performance of mechanical or electrical components or systems
Key Attributes of the Successful Candidate:
- Passion for innovation, can-do attitude, and willingness to learn new skills
- Ability to work on multiple tasks simultaneously, reacting to changing priorities and scope while meeting tight deadlines
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to build strong professional relationships across the Red Bull Group
We Love What We Do............

Not only is this a fantastic Junior Analysis Engineer position, but it is also a fantastic team to work with here at Red Bull Powertrains. A good salary is just the start, there are many other benefits too such as our bonus scheme, private health care cover, life assurance scheme, workplace nursery scheme, company contributed pension scheme, on site gym & fitness classes, free daily food allowance, and a cycle to work scheme; but above all, the job satisfaction doesn’t get any better than the feeling of making a real contribution to our championship winning grand prix cars.
