Jaguar's reputation for performance, technology and design was forged within the world's most challenging circuits and championships. Our partners all work at the cutting‑edge of technology and share an understanding that progress, courage and innovation enable us to achieve our on‑track goals.
We design, develop and manufacture the Jaguar Formula E racing car and run it in the FIA Formula E World Championship. We were world champions in 2024, and this was only possible due to the knowledge, talent and commitment of our people.
We operate a 12-month (September 2026 – August 2027) student placement programme within the Vehicle Performance team. This is an exciting opportunity where you will work with highly skilled and experienced engineering professionals and graduates who you can learn and develop with – the more questions you ask the more you will gain from your experience.

* Developing software tools and models to make processes and analysis more automated.
* Contributing to our pre‑event and post‑event analyses of car, tyre, systems and strategy performance.
