The posting

Join the FIA and play a key role in developing and monitoring the advanced technologies powering Formula 1. As an Application Software Engineer within the FIA Technical Department, you will strengthen our in-house embedded software capabilities to implement, monitor, and enforce Formula 1 technical and sporting regulations. You will work on complex multi-system electronics projects requiring seamless integration across control units, sensors, communication networks, and data systems. Based in Geneva, this new role requires working within a fast-paced, multidisciplinary team and includes trackside travel to Formula 1 events (approximately 12 events per year).

MISSIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES: Embedded application software development Design, implement, validate, and maintain robust in-house embedded software for key FIA Formula 1 platforms, notably the FIA Standard ECU and Accident Data Recorder, to monitor and enforce regulatory compliance. Lead end-to-end multi-system integration across control units, sensors, vehicle communication buses, telemetry networks, and FIA data-analysis suites. Translate complex sporting, technical, and operational requirements into high-integrity software architectures, detailed specifications, and rigorous verification plans. Develop specialized simulation, test, and data-analysis tools to accelerate software validation, support regulatory evolution, and guarantee operational readiness. Execute functional and integration testing on bench and vehicle environments in close collaboration with F1 teams, power unit manufacturers, and electronics suppliers. Troubleshoot, optimize, and maintain application software repositories, applying rigorous code reviews, version control, and clear technical documentation to ensure long-term reliability and maintainability. Build and scale in-house engineering capabilities, reinforcing the FIA’s operational independence and responsiveness to emerging technical demands.

Auditing of electronic systems Inspect competitors' embedded software, system behaviour, and telemetry data for compliance across chassis and powertrain regulations. Develop automated auditing tools and liaise with suppliers to streamline electronic inspection and homologation workflows.

Development strategy and regulatory support Support future regulation updates through proactive simulation, system modeling, and technical validation. Define specifications for future FIA electronic architectures, safeguard FIA intellectual property, and contribute technical input to F1 working groups.

Race and test support Provide trackside support at F1 races and tests (~12 events/year) to configure, operate, and monitor FIA electronics and data-logging systems. Analyse real-time vehicle telemetry to verify regulatory compliance and resolve cross-system software anomalies in collaboration with teams and manufacturers.

PROFILE: Master’s degree in Electronics, Control Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related discipline. Minimum 3 to 5 years of professional experience in embedded control systems or real-time application software development within a competitive motorsport environment (Formula 1, Formula E, WEC). Knowledge of the FIA Formula 1 Standard ECU and its application software tool suite would be a significant advantage. Proven track record in real-time embedded software development, testing, and lifecycle management; proficiency in MATLAB, Simulink, and Simscape. Strong understanding of Formula 1 or Formula E or WEC chassis and powertrain operation, including associated electronic, electrical, communication, control and data systems. Demonstrated experience delivering complex multi-system electronics projects involving the integration and validation of interconnected embedded systems. Excellent organisational and communication skills, autonomy under pressure, and adaptability to high-tempo trackside environments. Absolute discretion regarding confidential data; fluent written and spoken English.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
