Red Bull Powertrains is offering an incredible opportunity for a Design Tools Engineer to join our team as we head into our first-ever racing season with a Red Bull designed power unit. You’ll be at the heart of our operation, developing and perfecting race-ready performance, playing a crucial role in delivering a power unit capable of competing at the sharp end of the 2026 Formula One grid.
Working within our Engineering Capabilities department you will be developing tools that will streamline design workflows to ensure we are as fast on track, as we are in the factory. You will be a part of enabling automation and digital standards across the business improving traceability, best practice standards, and supporting right-first-time releases.
What you’ll be doing:
* Develop CAD plug-ins and automation scripts: Create tools that reduce repetitive tasks, enforce design rules, and improve design quality assurance.
* Extend PLM functionality: Configure and enhance Teamcenter workflows to support data traceability, validation sign-off, and simulation-ready geometry management.
* Integrate DfM/DfA checks into CAD workflows: Automate manufacturability and assembly feasibility reviews to prevent late-stage design issues.
* Create clash and clearance validation tools: Deliver automated solutions for clash detection, access checks, and virtual build reviews to de-risk assembly processes.
* Develop dashboards and reporting tools: Provide clear visibility of design compliance, build feasibility, and tool usage metrics to support decision-making.
* Collaborate with Methods Engineering: Capture requirements for automation tools and validate solutions through early adoption and feedback loops.
* Provide training and support: Act as a change champion by onboarding engineers to new tools and promoting best practice adoption across teams.
What we’re looking for:
* Degree (or equivalent) in Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline
* Strong proficiency in CAD platforms (e.g., Siemens NX, CATIA) and PLM systems (e.g., Teamcenter)
* Experience in software development for engineering applications (e.g. C#, Python, VB.NET or similar)
* Understanding of DfM/DfA principles and their application in CAD workflows
* Familiarity with API development and integration for CAD/PLM environments
At Red Bull Powertrains, we push the limits, fight for every victory, and get things done with relentless focus. Joining us means being part of a high-performance team that thrives on collaboration, trust, and ambition. We celebrate wins, learn from challenges, and take our work seriously—but not ourselves.
