Job Description
Join the Audi F1 Project - Shape the Future of Motorsport!
Welcome to the Audi F1 Project.
Audi will be competing in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship from 2026. The new team has three locations. The Sauber Group's Formula 1 factory in Hinwil (Switzerland) is known for its innovative technologies and passion for racing. Audi's Motorsport Competence Center in Neuburg (Germany) is considered one of the most modern of its kind in Europe. We have recently opened Sauber Motorsport Technology Center in the UK. Our Power Unit comes from Neuburg, while Hinwil is responsible for the development of the chassis and race operations with support from the UK.
We are now opening applications for our inaugural Graduate Programme. In your graduate role, you will contribute directly to live projects, gaining hands-on experience from day one.
Continuous improvement is at the core of what we do. You will be encouraged to adapt and innovate, strengthening your skills and developing a growth mindset. Clear and effective communication, as well as constructive feedback, will be essential in helping you collaborate across teams. You will share knowledge openly and learn from the experience of your teammates. And we place great emphasis on ownership: you will take responsibility for your work, make informed decisions and understand how your contributions shape the wider team's success.
Your mission
As a member of the Aero Production and Model Quality team, you play a key role in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of wind tunnel models. You act as the first point of contact for all matters related to model quality, supporting Design, Production, and the Prototype Workshop in improving standards. Your work helps maintain high-quality aerodynamic testing by applying advanced measurement techniques and continuously developing quality control methodologies.
