Our Team
Do you want to help design the future of motorsports? Then you have come to the right place at Audi Formula Racing GmbH! In 2026, Audi will join the most demanding motorsport series, Formula 1, a global stage and high-tech development lab all in one. Our aim is to engage in sporting and technological sustainable racing at the highest level of motorsports. The new technical regulations that come into effect in 2026 are based on significantly increased electrification and sustainable fuel. With “Vorsprung durch Technik”, we want to inspire our customers and fans worldwide.
In the internal combustion engine development division, you will work on the mechanical development of a high-performance drivetrain. Your task is to develop the maximum performance and efficiency of the engine in one or more sub-areas such as friction power, oil/cooling systems, crank drives, failure analysis and hydraulics while at the same time ensuring the required reliability.
You will perform development measures in the concept and design phase as well as in the commissioning and testing phase. You will plan this work alongside Design and Simulation on a wide variety of engine, component, and powertrain test benches. You will independently conduct and analyze the experiments and then develop appropriate proposals for further development. With your efforts, you will support the overall development of the drive unit to achieve the required level of maturity in line with the schedule.
The combination of high performance and competition is what drives innovation and technology transfer. Take the leap into the highest level of motorsports and be a part of an ambitious team. Together, we will play an active role in shaping future technology at Audi and the transformation of Formula 1!
About us
From 2026, Audi will enter the FIA Formula 1 World Championship with an internally developed power unit and a works team.
The power unit will be developed at Audi Sport’s state-of-the-art Motorsport Competence Center in Neuburg an der Donau. This means a Formula 1 drive system will be made in Germany for the first time since 2009.
By entering the premier class of motorsports, Audi is taking on its greatest challenge to date when it comes to combining sustainability, innovation and optimum motorsport performance. Audi’s decision was driven by the rule changes announced by the governing body of world motorsports, the FIA. From 2026, sustainable synthetic fuels will be required to be used and the electrical content of the hybrid power unit will be increased to almost 50 percent. Audi intends to actively support the transformation of what is by far the most important motorsport series. The power unit will be developed by more than 300 employees at the Neuburg an der Donau site. The Formula 1 program will spearhead Audi’s works-based motorsport activities going forward.
Audi Formula Racing GmbH has been established as a wholly owned subsidiary of Audi Sport GmbH with responsibility for Audi’s Formula 1 project. We are currently assembling a high-performance team to develop the power unit. Take the leap into the highest class of motorsports and be a part of Audi’s journey as it writes the next chapter in its illustrious motorsport history! We are looking for experts in technical roles in particular.
