About this role
We're looking for a Graduate Design Engineer to join our Aerodynamic Surfacing team, developing high-quality surface models that support the design, analysis and performance development of our Formula 1 car. Working alongside experienced designers and aerodynamicists, you'll translate aerodynamic concepts into accurate, robust digital surfaces for CFD analysis and wind tunnel testing. This is an opportunity to develop your surfacing expertise in a highly technical, fast-paced environment, where attention to detail, collaboration and continuous improvement are essential.
Develop and refine high-quality surface models to support aerodynamic development, CFD analysis and wind tunnel testing. Translate design concepts and aerodynamic requirements into accurate, robust and manufacturable geometry. Work closely with aerodynamicists, designers and engineering colleagues to understand requirements and deliver surface models to demanding deadlines. Support the development and maintenance of CAD models, design data and aerodynamic baselines. Ensure surface quality, component accuracy and design integrity throughout the development process.
Contribute to improving modelling methods, design processes and working practices to enhance quality and efficiency. Manage assigned tasks and deliverables, communicating progress and highlighting potential issues at an early stage. Develop an understanding of aerodynamic development, wind tunnel testing and the relationship between surface geometry and car performance. Work collaboratively across the Aerodynamics group and wider engineering functions to support the team's development objectives.
