F1 Augmented Reality Project Manager

MISSIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

Technical programme leadership

- Define and own the multi-year technical roadmap, development phases, milestones and deliverables. - Structure the programme across key technologies, including helmet and visor displays, optical HUD solutions, sensors, vehicle positioning, data processing and sensor fusion. - Lead the programme from technology assessment and proof of concept through prototype development, integration and testing. - Maintain effective governance through risk, dependency, resource and milestone management.

Systems integration and technical coordination

- Act as the technical systems integrator across on-car electronics, sensors, communication systems, data-processing solutions and driver equipment. - Translate safety and operational objectives into technical requirements, system architectures and validation plans. - Identify technical dependencies, interface constraints and integration risks across hardware and software systems. - Ensure that solutions address Formula 1 constraints, including packaging, weight, aerodynamics, cooling, latency, reliability and driver safety.

Supplier and stakeholder management

- Identify and coordinate specialised technology suppliers, engineering partners and research organisations. - Review and challenge supplier proposals, technical architectures, test results, costs and delivery timelines. - Build alignment across Formula 1 teams, FIA technical departments, safety specialists and external partners. - Lead technical workshops, reconcile competing requirements and facilitate pragmatic compromises.

Testing, human factors and risk management

- Coordinate simulation, laboratory evaluation, prototype development and vehicle-based testing. - Develop validation protocols for individual technologies and integrated solutions. - Assess human factors, including cognitive workload, visual ergonomics, information prioritisation, latency and emergency driver egress. - Identify and mitigate technical, safety, financial, intellectual property and programme-delivery risks.

Regulatory and strategic roadmap

- Assess potential implications for FIA Technical, Sporting and Financial Regulations. - Support the development of regulatory, standardisation and implementation roadmaps. - Prepare technical trade-off analyses, recommendations and phased implementation scenarios. - Consolidate technical findings and test results into clear reports for senior leadership and governance bodies.

PROFILE:

- Master’s degree in Systems Engineering, Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Control Engineering, Embedded Systems, Avionics, Optronics or a related discipline. - Minimum 7 to 10 years of relevant engineering and project management experience involving complex electronic, control or safety-critical systems. - Strong technical knowledge across areas such as vehicle electronics, control systems, sensors, communication systems, sensor fusion, positioning technologies, embedded systems or optical displays. - Experience in Formula 1, WEC or advanced motorsport would be highly valuable. Relevant experience from aerospace, avionics or advanced automotive engineering is also welcomed. - Proven experience coordinating complex engineering programmes involving multiple suppliers and interconnected technical workstreams. - Experience integrating hardware and software components within demanding, high-performance or safety-critical environments. - Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills, with the ability to reconcile competing technical priorities. - Experience with HUD technologies, helmet systems, sensor fusion, vehicle positioning or driver-assistance technologies would be an advantage. - Full professional proficiency in English.
