Key Attributes of the Successful Candidate:
- Passion for innovation, can-do attitude, and willingness to learn new skills
- Ability to work on multiple tasks simultaneously, react to changing priorities, and meet tight deadlines
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to build strong professional relationships across the Red Bull Technology Campus
We Love What We Do.....
At Red Bull, we believe that success isn’t just about the speed of our racing cars, it’s about the team behind every hard-earned victory.

Each Grand Prix weekend is the culmination of the efforts of a multi-disciplinary team based at our Technology Campus in Milton Keynes, and Formula One is a true team sport where everyone can make a difference.
Our Benefits Package:
Not only is this a fantastic Reliability Engineer position, but it is also a fantastic team to work with here at Red Bull Powertrains. A good salary is just the start, there are many other benefits too such as our bonus scheme, private health care cover, life assurance scheme, workplace nursery scheme, company contributed pension scheme, on site gym & fitness classes, free daily food allowance, and a cycle to work scheme; but above all, the job satisfaction doesn’t get any better than the feeling of making a real contribution to our championship winning grand prix cars.
