- General understanding of aerodynamics and tire behavior.
- Proficiency in Excel and Python programming with a focus on data analysis is highly preferred.

- Curious and open-minded, with a drive for continuous improvement.
- Strong self-awareness and ability to prioritize tasks in dynamic environments.
- Independent and capable of managing projects with minimal supervision.
