For almost 50 years, Atlassian Williams F1 Team has been at the forefront of one of the fastest sports on the planet, being one of the top three most successful teams in history competing in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. With an almost unrivalled heritage of engineering and racing F1 cars and unforgettable eras that demonstrate it is a force to be reckoned with, the British squad boasts 16 F1 World Championship titles to its name.
Since its foundation in 1977 by the eminent, late Sir Frank Williams and engineering pioneer Sir Patrick Head, the team has won nine Constructors’ Championships, in association with Cosworth, Honda and Renault. Its roll call of drivers is legendary, with its seven Drivers’ Championship trophies being lifted by true icons of the sport: Alan Jones, Keke Rosberg, Nelson Piquet, Nigel Mansell, Alain Prost, Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve. The team has made history before and is out to make it again with a long-term mission to evolve and return to the front of the grid.
The Role
As a Senior Software Engineer in our Engineering Acceleration Team, you won’t be working on a single product. You’ll be working across the organisation empowering our software engineering teams to move faster, building shared tooling that benefits multiple teams, and embedding with squads to accelerate delivery of key projects.
This is a role for someone who genuinely cares about developer experience. You’ll identify where standardisation or automation can reduce friction, champion new technologies, and build the kind of platform infrastructure that makes engineers more effective every day. You’ll also support colleagues across Aerodynamics, Vehicle Dynamics, Performance Systems and Design who write software as part of their engineering roles helping them do it better.

Join a fast-paced, future-thinking team that’s driving innovation and pushing past engineering boundaries.
