Internship
Do you want to help us bring Audi to Formula 1? You can… with an internship or final thesis at Audi Formula Racing GmbH in Neuburg an der Donau. Join us as we develop the power unit that will drive our racing cars from 2026.
The internship takes at least six months and takes place full-time on site in Neuburg. In addition to unique insights into the world of motorsport, we offer fair pay and make you part of the team that brings Audi to the pinnacle of motorsports. Audi Formula Racing GmbH is a subsidiary of Audi Sport and was founded in 2022 for the brand's Formula 1 entry. A team of experts who are passionate about developing the power unit will train and support you.
The internship is currently scheduled to start in January or February 2026, and to apply we need your current CV, relevant certificates, a certificate of enrollment and, if applicable, the examination regulations from your university as well as a current, official grade abstract. Do you want to be part of our team and help write motorsport history? Then tell us something about yourself in your letter of motivation.
Important to know: Applicants from the EU require a valid identity card/passport; applicants from non-EU countries require a residence permit and, if necessary, a work permit.
Please note that our final theses are always subject to a confidentiality note and, if necessary, a non-disclosure agreement must also be concluded with the university supervisor.
In the field of electric machine development (MGU-K), you’ll be working on the key component of high-performance electric drives, contributing directly to competitiveness in the highly demanding Formula 1 environment. The development of the MGU-K (Motor Generator Unit – Kinetic) spans from early concept phases through detailed design to validation via test bench runs.

- As an intern, you will be directly involved in current design and simulation processes and will have the opportunity to actively contribute to the development process.
- A key focus of the internship will be the 3D modeling of electric machines with regard to electromagnetic aspects. The main tasks include model setup, execution of simulations, and automation within an electromagnetic simulation environment.
- Additionally, the potential applications of machine learning for MGU-K in a multidisciplinary context will be investigated.
- Successfully completed basic studies in a technical field such as electrical engineering, mechatronics, mechanical engineering, or a comparable degree program
- Basic knowledge of electric drives, especially electric machines
- Advanced proficiency in common programming languages (e.g., Python, MATLAB, Java)
- Experience with FEM simulation tools (e.g., Altair Flux, Ansys Maxwell)
- Experience with machine learning methods (e.g., Gaussian Processes, Neural Networks) and relevant libraries (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow) is desirable
- Interest in motorsport
- Goal-oriented, independent, and structured working style
- Strong implementation skills as well as a high level of motivation and initiative
- Strong team spirit
- Good command of German or English
