The team is based in three locations:
- The power unit is developed by Audi Formula Racing GmbH at the Audi Competence Center Motorsport in Neuburg, Germany.
- The chassis is engineered and race operations are managed from the state-of-the-art facilities of Audi Motorsport AG in Hinwil, Switzerland.
- The Audi Motorsport Technology Centre UK in Bicester, United Kingdom, provides a foothold in the heart of 'Motorsport Valley', with direct access to top F1 talent and key strategic partners.
About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Senior FEM Structural Analysis Engineer to join our high-performance Structural Design and Analysis department and play a key role in the development of cutting-edge Formula 1 car components.
This position for the Audi Revolut F1® Team can be based at Audi Motorsport Technical Centre, Bicester, UK.
Your Mission
- Perform advanced linear and non-linear finite element analyses on composite and metallic components and assemblies.
- Define and validate structural load cases using first-principles engineering approaches, simulation data, and track feedback.
- Support the design and optimisation of critical Formula 1 systems, including suspension components, aerodynamic surfaces, chassis structures, gearbox and mechanical assemblies.
- Deliver structural sign-off documentation ensuring compliance with internal standards, FIA regulations, and project deadlines.
- Collaborate closely with Design Engineers to achieve lightweight and robust solutions through iterative optimisation.
- Develop and improve analysis methodologies, automation tools, and best practices to increase department efficiency and technical capability.
- Provide technical guidance and mentoring to junior analysts and contribute to the continuous development of the analysis team.
- Support cross-functional projects involving vehicle dynamics, data analysis, and multidisciplinary optimisation where required.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
