Structural Analyst and Test Engineer*

The opportunities are endless when you are fearless

In motorsport, we give it our all – every detail matters when it comes to extracting maximum performance from our bikes. But before our motorcycles can achieve success on the racetrack, they must first be developed, analyzed, and tested down to the smallest detail – and that’s where you come in. As a Structural Analyst and Test Engineer, you are part of this process and responsible for the virtual and physical evaluation of our MotoGP chassis and engine designs. You perform FE analyses (static and dynamic), assess and optimize designs, further develop our FE model database, and evaluate the structural feasibility of new concepts. In the testing area, you plan and conduct stiffness measurements, develop test procedures, analyze results, and correlate simulation and test data. You also support the continuous improvement of our test bench hardware and software. With your technical expertise and passion for motorsport, you play a key role in ensuring that our motorcycles deliver top performance on the track.
