We are looking for an Aero Concept Designer who thrives on challenge, thinks beyond the obvious, and wants to shape the future direction of a Formula 1 car.
In the Aero Concept team,our mission is clear:reduce the time to aero intent. As an AeroConcept Designer,you’llhelp turn early aerodynamic ideas into highquality, FIAlegal 3D surfacing modelsfor bothwind tunneltestingand full-scale development.Your work will directly influence how quickly aerodynamic intent becomes physical reality.
This is more thanjust creating a CADsurface. This is about accelerating performance through precisionaero design.
You’llwork closely with Aerodynamicists,Model Designersand Composite designersto deliver fast, robust geometry and support a culture that valueshigh standards, openthinkingand continuous improvement.
Responsibilities include:
* Supporting the creation and delivery of high-quality concept surface models within specific aero development groups using CAD software.
* Producingrobust, FIA-legal geometry that is fit for purpose and ready for Wind Tunnel andFull-Scalerelease.
* Work closely with Aerodynamicists, ModelDesigners and other design teams to ensure efficient implementation of aero projects.
* Supporting the WSR process when required, ensuring accurate, regulation-compliant geometry.
* Play an active role in surfacing reviews and cross-functional discussions.
* Identifyopportunities to improve design practices, processes and workflows.
This role is about reducing friction in the development cycle. Cleaner geometry. Smarter processes. Faster iteration. Every surface you create should move us closer to lap time.
About You
Technical skills matter,but mindset matters more. You’re not someone who stops at optionA. You’re already thinking about options B, C, D and beyond and building concepts that can be iterated, refined and improved.
You’recurious by default. You seek information widely, ask questions early, and use engineering first principles as your anchor. You’reprocessoriented, detaildriven and motivated by doing things the right way, not just the fast way.
We’relooking for someone who is comfortable challenging standards when needed but is also able to get stuck in a deliver the job when it matters. You communicate clearly, collaborate with ease, and build strong relationships across disciplines.
Above all, you’re excited by the idea of shaping concepts that will be tested, challenged, developed and ultimately help drive the performance of a Formula One car.
Key Technical Skills & Experience
* Completed apprenticeship, HND or Degree in Mechanical, Product, Industrial or Automotive Engineering
* Strong, transferrable engineering experience; motorsport exposure a bonus
* Familiarity with Aero concepts and development.
* Advanced 3DCADsurfacing skills
* Clear communicator with strong teamwork and presentation skills
* Good project management awareness and ability to act decisively under pressure
* Flexible when deadlines demand extra commitment
Company Description
