Purpose of the Role:
The purpose of this role is to deliver performance projects, driving success on track for McLaren F1 Racing.
In the Engineering Tools team, you will build innovative full-stack applications and data-driven solutions across multiple engineering disciplines, contributing to the development and operation of championship-winning racing cars. As a senior member of the development team, you will provide technical leadership on a range of projects, including initiatives beyond your own team, and mentor less experienced team members.
Role Description:
This role is part of the Engineering Tools team within the Software & Data Science department, which designs and delivers bespoke software tools to enhance Formula 1 team and car performance.
The team works across multiple engineering domains—primarily design, electronics, FEA, and reliability, with projects also involving aero, control systems, and manufacturing. These projects range from analytics and optimisation to process automation, workflow efficiency, and data centralisation, all delivered through intuitive UIs and system integrations. You’ll develop an understanding of engineering concepts such as structural analysis, dynamic systems, 3D modeling, and manufacturing workflows to build tools that enable more effective racing car design and production.
Success requires strong stakeholder collaboration, deep knowledge of diverse workflows, and the ability to translate complex engineering requirements into intuitive software solutions. You’ll work across the full development lifecycle—from analysis and design to deployment, monitoring, and support—architecting scalable solutions that integrate seamlessly with the racing software ecosystem. Expertise in Python or TypeScript (and proficiency in the other) is essential, along with experience in agile/lean delivery in a fast-paced F1 environment.
The role is primarily based at the McLaren Technology Centre, with some remote work and occasional flexibility for out-of-hours or weekend tasks due to track, tunnel, and manufacturing operations.
