Alongside your project work, you'll contribute ideas to continuous improvement, helping build smarter, more efficient design practices across the team. About You You have a solid grounding in mechanical design and manufacture, and you're keen to build on it. You combine good technical ability with a proactive attitude and a growing understanding of engineering design principles, detailed drawings, and modern CAD tools (Siemens NX preferred). You take pride in producing accurate, high-quality work, stay calm under pressure, and are comfortable taking ownership of your own tasks within a wider project. Clear communication and good judgement come naturally to you, and you work well with colleagues across all disciplines. You're a team player who's keen to learn and grow within a high-performance team culture. Key Responsibilities - Create conceptual and detailed designs for vehicle components and structures. - Develop lightweight, structurally efficient, cost-effective solutions with a good eye for mass, stiffness and performance trade-offs. - Produce supporting structural and functional calculations. - Collaborate closely with aerodynamics, vehicle science, electronics, chassis, stress, transmission, R&D, production and external suppliers. - Support the writing of clear technical procedures and system specifications. - Support fault investigations and help implement timely, robust fixes. - Assist with drawing and assembly checking. - Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives, working with senior engineers to enhance design efficiency across the team. - Support project allocation, supplier engagement, and user-acceptance activities as directed. What You Bring - We're looking for someone who combines solid technical skill with enthusiasm, creativity, and collaboration. - You'll excel in this role if you have: - Good understanding of engineering design for mechanical components and assemblies, aligned with industry standards. - Good CAD skills and experience using engineering software for vehicle design (Siemens NX experience is a bonus although training is available). - An interest in developing project delivery experience. - Strong attention to detail and the ability to deliver high-quality work under pressure. - A proactive, self-motivated mindset with a willingness to take ownership of your own workload. - A positive, open, and team-focused attitude. - Good judgement, integrity and communication skills. - Good organisational abilities with a clear sense of prioritisation. Qualifications & Experience - Degree in Mechanical, Automotive, Aerospace, Marine or a closely related engineering discipline. - Some technical experience in your specialism, with an eagerness to develop and grow within a fast-paced engineering environment. ## Additional Information #LI-JB1 Atlassian Williams F1 Team is an equal opportunity employer that values diversity and inclusion.
