Entwickler_in für E-Maschinen im Rennsupport | Race Support Engineer (MGU)

Welcome to the Audi F1 Project.
 
Audi will be competing in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship from 2026. 
 
The new team has two locations. Audi's Motorsport Competence Center in Neuburg (Germany) is considered one of the most modern of its kind in Europe. The Sauber Group's Formula 1 factory in Hinwil (Switzerland) is known for its innovative technologies and passion for racing. The Power Unit comes from Neuburg, while Hinwil is responsible for the development of the chassis and race operations. The planned takeover by AUDI AG turns two teams into a factory team – and you can be part of it.
 
What you need? The mindset of an athlete. If you are someone for whom giving up isn’t an option and limits are just something to be overcome, you can bring Vorsprung durch Technik to Formula 1 with us. Become part of this unique project and make motorsport history.  
 
The position for the Audi F1 Project is at Audi Formula Racing GmbH in Neuburg (Germany).

In the field of electric motor development (MGU-K), you will work on the key component of high-performance electric drivetrains and contribute to competitiveness in the highly demanding F1 environment. Through testing at component and system level, you will ensure the validation and continuous development of our electric drivetrain components in the Audi F1 Project. You will also supervise test and race operations in Mission Control.

• Testing of electric motors (MGU-Ks) from early prototypes to the finished racing system 
• Planning and implementation of test scopes with a focus on electric motors (MGU-K) at component level, at HV system level (ERS) and in the drivetrain system together with the combustion engine (power unit)
• Support of the electric drivetrain components at HV system level (ERS) during test and race operations in Mission Control
• Evaluation of test scopes incl. documentation and presentation of results
• Incorporating test results into the design, development and quality processes to optimize and further develop the electric motors
• Application of electric drivetrains in cooperation with software development

• Technical degree in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, mechatronics or a comparable course of study
• Several years of professional experience in high-level motorsport in the field of electric drivetrain components 
• Flexibility, passion and a high willingness to work in Mission Control (especially on weekends with increased workload)
• Experience in working with test benches for drivetrain components 
• Good knowledge of data analysis tools (e.g. ATLAS)
• Basic knowledge of application tools (e.g. System Monitor)
• Experience in dealing with high-voltage, ideally training as an electrical specialist (EFK)
• Strong implementation skills, as well as a high degree of motivation and initiative
• Goal-oriented, independent and structured way of working
• Strong ability to work in a team
• Ability to make decisions and deal with conflict
• Full professional proficiency in German or English and a willingness to learn a basic level in the corresponding other language are prerequisites
