CFD Engineer – Non-F1 Solver
Brackley, UK
Mercedes was born to race - and we've been doing it since 1901. Today, the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team competes at the pinnacle of motorsport: the FIA Formula One World Championship. The pioneering spirit of our company founders lives on in our commitment to innovation and performance. As the world's original automobile manufacturer, Mercedes-Benz has defined the cutting edge of technology for over a century. Today, our F1 team exists to demonstrate the best of the brand's performance on the global stage.
About the role:
We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced CFD Engineer to join our Team, working on methodology for our non-F1 projects.
In this role, you’ll help develop our CFD solvers: improving the fidelity and efficiency of the toolset used by our aerodynamicists to develop high-performance vehicles.
It’s a great time to join us. Working closely with key stakeholders, you’ll play a pivotal role in evolving our tools from concept to deployment, making a tangible impact on the processes used by our non-F1 Aerodynamics Group.
Key responsibilities:
Your responsibilities will include:
Candidate profile:
You have an established record developing CFD solvers for aerodynamic flows, with experience of:
Experience of working in a high-performance environment such as motorsport is not required: we are more focussed on your potential to deliver at the highest level, applying your skills and understanding to practical data problems.
What do we offer:
Our riverside campus is powered by 100% renewably sourced energy and includes an on-site gym, exercise studio, subsidised restaurant, and on-site parking with EV chargers.
We also offer a competitive benefits package including a generous bonus scheme, Mercedes car lease scheme, private medical cover, life assurance, and 25 days’ holiday. We pride ourselves on our family-friendly culture and team-wide focus on well-being.
Why Join Us:
At the core of our performance is our people. Every member of our team plays a part in our success, both on and off the track. We foster a high-performance, innovative culture where collaboration, respect and excellence are expected and celebrated.
Through our Accelerate 25 programme, we’re committed to building a more diverse and inclusive team - because we believe the best teams are those that reflect the world around them.
Your Application:
We will ask you to complete a questionnaire as well as submitting a cover letter and CV. Please upload your cover letter and CV as one single PDF file.

Key responsibilities:
Your responsibilities will include:
- Creating a roadmap for non-F1 aerodynamic CFD solver, aligned with project goals and requirements for our future toolset
- Improving the efficiency and fidelity of the CFD aerodynamic solvers that are applied to non-F1 projects
- Working independently and with other specialists to design, develop, implement, benchmark, test and validate new capabilities in a robust fashion
- Maintaining and improving existing toolsets
Candidate profile:
You have an established record developing CFD solvers for aerodynamic flows, with experience of:
- Developing and adapting finite-volume CFD solvers running on state-of-the art hardware, to deliver toolsets that are robust, accurate and offer significant improvements in efficiency
- Best-practice in using different CFD techniques to simulate real aerodynamic flows, including alternative approaches and their limitations
- Your knowledge of state-of-the-art solver methods and your skills in implementing them may have been gained through experience in a professional position or in an academic setting (eg PhD or PostDoc in the field of CFD methodology).
