The posting

Company Description

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.

Job Description

Build software that makes a difference — lap by lap.

Atlassian Williams F1 Team is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Software Development group. You'll be part of a team building bespoke, high-quality software that directly supports our Engineering and Operations functions — from aerodynamics and vehicle dynamics to real-time race data and performance analysis. At Williams, software is a competitive weapon, and the work you do will have a tangible impact both in the factory and on track.

The Role

You'll work across a diverse and technically interesting software estate, collaborating closely with product managers, engineers, and specialist users to understand their needs and deliver solutions that genuinely make their work better. Our stack includes desktop applications in C# and C++, web applications in React, Python-based analysis tools, and a range of backend services in C#. We're also on an active modernisation journey, adopting cloud-native technologies and modern data platforms — so there's real opportunity to shape how we build and grow.

What you'll be doing

  • Understanding the needs of a wide range of users across Williams Racing and translating them into clear technical specifications
  • Developing, implementing, and maintaining innovative software solutions alongside the wider Software Development team
  • Enhancing existing systems to improve reliability, performance, and adaptability as requirements evolve
  • Collaborating with other technology groups to enhance and develop shared data platform services
  • Conducting code reviews and mentoring junior developers, championing best practices and raising overall quality
  • Contributing to the definition and documentation of preferred software designs, patterns, and architectures
  • Streamlining development processes to help the team deliver more to its customers
  • Providing application support during race weekend events where required

Qualifications

What we're looking for

  • A degree in Computer Science or a related field involving software development
  • Strong software development experience in one or more of: C#, Go, Java, C++, Python, or TypeScript
  • Familiarity with software process management tools and source control, such as Azure DevOps and Git
  • A collaborative, curious approach to problem-solving with excellent communication skills — including the ability to convey technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
  • Adaptability and a readiness to learn new technologies quickly
  • A genuine desire to build impactful solutions for specialist engineering users

The following would be a bonus, though not essential:

  • Experience with containerisation, DevOps, and cloud platforms such as Azure or AWS
  • Familiarity with logging, monitoring, and observability tooling
  • Experience using document, object, or time-series datastores
  • A background in or exposure to aerodynamics, data science, vehicle dynamics, or computer simulations

Additional Information

Why Williams Racing?

You'll be working with one of the most specialised and technically demanding user bases in sport. The problems are genuinely hard, the environment is fast-moving, and the impact of your work is visible — on timing screens around the world. If you're a software engineer who wants to do meaningful work in an extraordinary setting, we'd love to hear from you.

Atlassian Williams F1 Team is an equal opportunity employer that values diversity and inclusion. We are happy to discuss reasonable job adjustments.

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.
