Ready to race ahead in your career? Plug into our team as an Data & AI Engineer and power up our mission!
Formula E, the world's fastest-growing sport, is redefining motorsport with a bold focus on innovation and sustainability.
Hosting over 100 races in iconic cities globally and backed by top manufacturers like Porsche, and Jaguar, we feature elite drivers and cutting-edge EV technology. As the world's first sport certified Net Zero Carbon from inception, Formula E combines thrilling entertainment with a mission to advance sustainable progress, inspiring a global fanbase with our high-performance brand new GEN3 EVO race car capable of 0‑60mph in 1.82 seconds (0‑100kph in 1.86s).
Using the spectacle of sport, we are sending a powerful and meaningful message to help alter perceptions and speed‑up the switch to electric mobility.
Welcome to the home of Global Electric Street Racing.
Sitting at the heart of our exciting Google Cloud partnership, you will bridge the gap between robust data architecture and cutting‑edge intelligence. As a Data & AI Engineer, you will own the end‑to‑end lifecycle of data‑driven AI applications. This role is about more than just prompts; it’s about building the high‑performance GCP data foundations that power autonomous orchestration frameworks.
Integrated Data & AI Pipelines: Design, build, and maintain scalable data pipelines within Google Cloud Platform (GCP) that serve as the backbone for real‑time AI context and RAG systems.
Agentic Framework Development: Design and deploy autonomous AI agents and orchestration frameworks to automate complex workflows and revolutionise fan engagement.
GCP Ecosystem Mastery: Leverage the full Google suite—including Vertex AI, Agent Builder, and BigQuery—to create production‑ready RAG (Retrieval‑Augmented Generation) systems.
Vector & Relational Modelling: Develop and optimise vector databases and traditional data models (SQL/NoSQL) tailored for high‑efficiency AI retrieval and LLM performance.
Strategic Architecture: Partner with technical and non‑technical teams to identify where data‑rich automation can drive high impact, translating racing and business needs into robust engineering solutions.
Hybrid Deployment & Governance: Take accountability for the performance, data integrity, and safety of AI deployments, ensuring low‑latency access and rigorous documentation.
GCP Data Engineering Foundations: Proven experience building production‑grade data solutions on GCP, with deep knowledge of BigQuery, Cloud Run, and Cloud Functions.
AI Implementation: Hands‑on experience building AI applications using Vertex AI (Model Garden, Studio) and implementing Gemini or other LLM architectures.
Orchestration Mastery: Proficiency in developing AI agents using Vertex AI Agent Builder, LangChain, or similar frameworks to manage complex logic flows.
Advanced Programming: Expert‑level Python skills, specifically for data engineering, API development, and LLM integration.
Modern Data Stack: Experience with RAG architectures, managing Vector Databases (e.g., Vertex AI Search, Pinecone, or pgvector), and handling structured vs. unstructured data flows.
Engineering Excellence: A “DataOps” mindset—strong experience with Git, CI/CD, and version control for both code and data/model lineage.
A relevant Google Cloud certification (Professional Data Engineer or Professional Machine Learning Engineer) would be highly beneficial.
