United Autosports – McLaren Hypercar Programme
Full-time | Technical role | Precision engineering focus
If you’re a detail-obsessed mechanic who loves building components to perfection and ensuring every assembly meets exact specification — you will thrive in this role.
About the Role
As a Sub-Assembly Mechanic, you’ll be responsible for building, servicing and maintaining critical Hypercar assemblies — brakes, uprights, hubs, dampers, steering, gearbox ancillaries and other complex components.
Your work directly affects reliability, safety and performance.
This is a precision-based, documentation-heavy role where consistency and discipline are everything.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Building and maintaining major sub-assemblies to exact engineering tolerances.
* Following build sheets, torque settings, measurements and quality standards.
* Managing component life, usage logs, inspection reports and condition documentation.
* Working with Reliability, Build Engineering and No1 Mechanics to ensure assemblies meet all criteria.
* Maintaining a clean, controlled working environment with all tooling calibrated.
* Reporting anomalies, wear patterns and potential failure modes with accuracy.
* Supporting trackside assembly changes and urgent repairs when required.
* Ensuring all components are labelled, stored, tracked and signed off correctly.
What You’ll Bring
* Strong mechanical experience with complex motorsport assemblies.
* Exceptional attention to detail and documentation discipline.
* Ability to build assemblies consistently and confidently under time pressure.
* Technical understanding of materials, tolerances, torque procedures and inspection methods.
* A methodical, precise and safety-led approach.
Your craftsmanship becomes performance. If that excites you — this is your role.
