About the Placement Programme
Our Student Placement Programme is designed to give you more than just work experience – it’s your first step into the fast-paced world of Formula One®.
During your time with us, you will:
- Work on live projects that make a direct impact on car performance
- Follow a tailored development plan, with regular feedback to support your growth
- Gain exposure to cutting-edge tools, technologies and processes in motorsport
- Be part of a collaborative and inclusive team that values your ideas
- Build skills that could set you up for a future career in Formula One®.
This is an opportunity to develop, challenge yourself, and contribute to something extraordinary. If you share our racer’s spirit and want to write the next chapter in Aston Martin Aramco’s history, join us – where every team member plays a crucial role in our success, and your growth is as important as our achievements.
About Performance at Aston Martin Aramco
Performance is at the heart of everything we do. From optimising car setups to developing tools and simulations that guide future design, our performance teams ensure we extract every fraction of a second from our Formula One® car. Our Performance departments combine cutting-edge simulation, modelling, optimisation and data analysis.
Working closely with trackside engineers, design teams, and aerodynamics, performance placements are uniquely positioned to see how their work translates into real-world results on race weekends – and, through Aston Martin Performance Technologies, how F1 methods can also shape projects beyond the sport.
Role Spotlights
We’re offering placements across several engineering areas. Whichever team you join, you’ll contribute to real projects that shape the performance of our Formula One® cars. Within your application, you’ll be asked to select your top three preferred roles from this advert, and your top one favourite.
Performance Analysis
Work on the analysis of simulation data to understand and improve car behaviour. You’ll support projects across multiple groups, helping to refine methodologies and develop insights that influence car development.
