Senior Tyre Science Engineer

2025 sees Money Gram Haas F1 Team celebrate its tenth season in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship… we’re just getting started. We don’t follow the status quo, we’re here to challenge the competition, and we want you to join us.

The first American Formula 1 team to compete in the sport since 1986, Money Gram Haas F1 Team made an immediate impression with a memorable points-scoring debut at the 2016 Australian Grand Prix. Nine years later, and the team continues to demonstrate growth and a clear direction with its future objectives – coming off the back of its second-best season to-date in Formula 1.

We’re a racing team – not a corporate machine. We have three HQs – Kannapolis in the US, Banbury in the UK and Maranello in Italy – each powered by passionate, loyal and hardworking team ambassadors. At Money Gram Haas F1 Team – known within the paddock as the ‘family team’ – you’ll be involved in many different areas of the team, have much wider visibility across the business, and will be able to clearly see your contribution to our team.

Yes, you’ll learn from us, but we expect to learn from you too!

This position reports to the Head of Vehicle Science or their designee and is based in Banbury, UK. The position involves design, development, and application of advanced simulation tools with a strong focus on tyres, and any such tools that are used in the continuous improvement of the performance of car. This position requires support during race weekends from factory and attendance to a limited number of trackside races and tests.

• Promote teamwork and effective communications to develop working relationships between all personnel and departments.
• Follow all safety regulations in all venues.
• Other duties as assigned by the Head of Vehicle Science or designee.

• Design, develop and continually assess the correlation of both physical and empirical tyre models whilst conducting research to seek improvements on the modelling techniques.
• Support the Design Office and other departments in the design of cars and tools with simulations and data driven approaches.
• Design, development, and correlation of tools aimed at analysing the tyre performance on track, on the rigs and when used on simulation tools (i.e. lap sim, DIL, HIL, etc).
• Collaborate with software engineers on the design and development of tools used to monitor the performance of tyres.
• Develop the necessary infrastructure for fitting physical and empirical tyre models to track and/or rig data.
• Manage and maintain the tyre catalogues to provide a comprehensive set of parameters, populate all simulation and analysis tools with the most precise and up-to-date information.
• Lead the monitoring of the performance of all sensors directly and indirectly related to tyres.
• Lead and maintain any collaboration with Electronics and Control System departments in detecting and reporting malfunctioning of sensors. Propose solutions and/or support the investigation with a data driven approach.
• Supervise and mentor junior engineers with their contribution to the team activities.

• Formulate pre-event simulations and reporting to support Race Engineering with the event preparation.
• Complete post-event analysis and reporting of tyre performance with focus on improving the performance of the tyres and the tools involved.
• Support race and test event through the entire weekend by following the sessions live from the factory or at the track.
• Assist Race Engineering, Vehicle Performance and Strategy departments to monitor and optimize the car performance.
• Support Race Engineering by providing the tyre performance analysis report and answer to specific focus points when requested at the end of each session.
• Collaborate and assist Electronics and Control Systems department to monitor live the performance of sensors directly and indirectly related to tyres.

• Propose tyre test items, for all trackside testing opportunities and report the findings with a data driven approach. Review of the testing techniques and suggest changes for improvements.
• Responsible for the management of projects; from outsourced bench testing activities:…
