You will be a key part of the Team which is responsible for developing and analysing power unit (PU) data to extract insight for supporting performance, reliability and operational decision making.


You will be working closely with engineering and operational teams to uncover insight from data collected during testing, practice sessions and race events. You will be contributing to race and season success through reactive fault analytics and proactive strategic analysis. In addition, you will contribute to the team’s reporting and data quality capability, ensuring that insights are not only sharp, but consistently accessible, accurate and trusted across the business.


Key responsibilities for this Strategic PU Data Analyst (Engineering) role are:

  • Extract actionable insights from PU and reliability datasets to support performance and durability.
  • Partner with engineering stakeholders to identify performance and reliability risks and opportunities by analysing internal and external datasets.
  • Investigate strategic questions around reliability trade-offs, component lifing, or in-season performance trends.
  • Rapidly respond to urgent reliability or performance faults, identifying root causes and proposing data-driven solutions.
  • Deliver clear, actionable insights to senior stakeholders through visualisation and presentation tools.
  • Collaborate on the creation of new data sets or tools that improve decision making.
  • Support the development and maintenance of automated dashboards and reporting tools that underpin PU analysis.
  • Contribute to the definition and monitoring of KPIs across the PU function.
  • Implement and evolve data quality checks and validation routines to ensure accuracy and consistency in critical datasets.
  • Document key datasets, flows and definitions to promote shared understanding and consistent usage.
  • Proactively explore and test new analytical methods for PU insight generation.
  • Stay up to date with the latest advancements in power unit technology, data analysis techniques, and industry best practices.

To be successful in this Strategic PU Data Analyst (Engineering) role, you will need:

  • A degree with a 2:1 minimum in relevant STEM subject or related field.
  • Proficient understanding of power unit systems, engine performance metrics, and F1-specific engineering considerations.
  • Demonstrated ability to apply statistical thinking and data-driven approaches to complex, real-world problems.
  • Experience working with large datasets and utilising data analysis tools such as Python, SQL, MATLAB, or similar (including data science/statistics libraries).
  • Proven experience in data visualisation techniques and tools such as Tableau, Power BI, or similar.
  • Familiarity with data quality principles and experience implementing validation routines.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to derive actionable insights from complex data.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to work under pressure in a fast-paced racing environment.
  • Effective communication and presentation skills, with the ability to convey technical information to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Passion for motorsports, Formula One racing, and a deep interest in power unit technology.

At Red Bull Powertrains, we push the limits, fight for every victory, and get things done with relentless focus. Joining us means being part of a high-performance team that thrives on collaboration, trust, and ambition. We celebrate wins, learn from challenges, and take our work seriously—but not ourselves.
