Data Science Engineer

Application Deadline: 27 March 2026

Department: Vehicle Science

Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time

Location: Silverstone

Reporting To: Robbie Stevens

Description

Are you passionate about applying advanced modelling and AI to unlock performance in one of the most cutting edge engineering environments in the world? Join our Vehicle Science team as a Data Science Engineer, where your work will directly influence and continuously improve the performance of our Formula One car.

This is a unique opportunity to use mathematical modelling, physics based methods, and machine learning to accelerate simulation, improve predictive capabilities, and generate high value insights across aerodynamics and other engineering domains.

Key Responsibilities

In this role, you'll be at the forefront of data driven performance engineering. You will:

  • Build robust, reliable data driven and physics informed models using advanced mathematical and AI/ML methods.
  • Develop and optimise scalable data pipelines integrating simulation data, physical testing outputs, and trackside measurements.
  • Research and implement state-of-the-art AI/ML techniques to improve modelling fidelity and computational speed.
  • Collaborate with Aerodynamics, Vehicle Performance, Simulation & Modelling and other technical groups to embed insights into engineering decisions.
  • Communicate findings through clear reports, visualisations, and presentations for both technical and nontechnical audiences.
  • Ensure data quality, security, and compliance across the modelling workflow.
  • Write clean, maintainable code using modern software engineering practices and AI assisted development tools.
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

We’re looking for someone analytical, curious, and ready to push boundaries. You should have:

  • A master's degree or higher in Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, Computer Science or a related field.
  • Strong understanding of reduced order modelling and ideally exposure to fluid mechanics or other complex physical systems.
  • Excellent analytical skills across experimental methods, modelling, statistical inference, and data driven techniques.
  • Familiarity with surrogate modelling, emulators, and predictive algorithms used to accelerate engineering workflows.
  • Preferably, strong programming skills in Python and experience with ML/scientific libraries such as SciKitLearn, JAX or PyTorch. However, software training will also be provided.
  • Ability to work calmly under pressure, manage competing priorities, and deliver high-quality results on tight timelines.
  • Strong problem-solving ability and confidence making data driven recommendations.
  • A collaborative mindset and enthusiasm for building strong working relationships across teams.
Benefits

Investing in your career is paramount. We promote professional and personal development through a provision of learning opportunities and work with you to shape your career and realise your full potential.

As part of our high-performing, collaborative team, you'll enjoy a competitive package, including a discretionary bonus scheme, private healthcare, pension plan, life assurance, TEDSgroup childcare benefits, a cycle-to-work scheme, tech scheme, and car scheme.

You will also have access to our state-of-the-art facilities at the AMR Technology Campus, featuring a new on-site gym with fitness, spin and yoga classes, a bistro café, and restaurant.

How Many Machine Learning Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Machine Learning Job?

Machine learning is one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of tech. But for job seekers it can also feel like a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms. One job advert wants TensorFlow and Keras. Another mentions PyTorch, scikit-learn and Spark. A third lists Mlflow, Docker, Kubernetes and more. With so many names out there, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you must learn everything just to be competitive. Here’s the honest truth most machine learning hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool. They hire you because you can solve real problems with the tools you know. Tools are important — no doubt — but context, judgement and outcomes matter far more. So how many machine learning tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the real number is far smaller than you think — and more logically grouped. This guide breaks down exactly what employers expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to structure your learning for real career results.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Machine Learning Job Applications (UK Guide)

Whether you’re applying for machine learning engineer, applied scientist, research scientist, ML Ops or data scientist roles, hiring managers scan applications quickly — often making decisions before they’ve read beyond the top third of your CV. In the competitive UK market, it’s not enough to list skills. You must send clear signals of relevance, delivery, impact, reasoning and readiness for production — and do it within the first few lines of your CV or portfolio. This guide walks you through exactly what hiring managers look for first in machine learning applications, how they evaluate CVs and portfolios, and what you can do to improve your chances of getting shortlisted at every stage — from your CV and LinkedIn profile to your cover letter and project portfolio.
