It is a specialist function with a short line to the design office. When you find something wrong during a strip, the person who can fix it is in the same building. Your sign-off is the last check before a part goes on a car that races, so the standard is simple: no defect gets passed on. What you'll be doing Building, stripping and servicing Williams and customer suspension, brake, steering, power unit integration and drive-train components to Engineering and Manufacturing procedure Assessing every component as it comes apart and goes back together, and reporting faults rather than working around them Operating pass-off and test rigs Raising assembly and quality issues with the team leader or the relevant design authority Building to deadlines set by the race and test calendar, working from the daily work list Recording build and component information accurately in our systems, so the life history of every part stands up to scrutiny Keeping the workshop and equipment to the standard the work demands Qualifications What you'll bring You'll have hands-on experience assembling complex mechanical components to tight tolerances - torque-to-spec, clean-build discipline, the confidence to stop and flag a part that isn't right.
Ideally that comes from F1, F2 or sportscar racing. You'll be comfortable working from CAD drawings and recording build data accurately. Experience with Teamcenter PLM, lifing systems, or an ERP/manufacturing execution system will help you settle in quickly.
