Closing Date: Friday 21 August 2026
Fueled by bold ambition
To maximise the probability that aerodynamic performance is delivered to the racetrack by transforming how simulation, modeling, and data are used across the aerodynamic development cycle.
This role provides technical leadership and strategic direction for aerodynamic modeling and simulation - ensuring that our development tools (CFD/wind tunnel), methods, and metrics are predictive, aligned, and effective in driving on-track performance.
-
Own the effectiveness of aerodynamic simulation and modeling in delivering track performance
-
Increase the “hit rate” of aerodynamic developments reaching the car
-
Define and evolve the simulation strategy across CFD, wind tunnel, and track domains, enhancing computational and physical modeling capabilities
-
Improve confidence in development decisions through better correlation, metrics, and data usage
-
Strengthen decision-making frameworks across the development cycle
-
Increase reliability and predictive capability of aerodynamic tools
-
Align CFD, wind tunnel, and track data into a coherent development system
-
Partners across Aerodynamics, Vehicle Performance, Data Science, and Trackside Engineering
-
Communicates clear insights, risks, and opportunities to senior stakeholders
