Lead Software Engineer - Atlassian Williams F1

Atlassian Williams F1 Team is looking for a Lead Software Engineer to join our Performance Technology group. This is a rare opportunity to lead a team of engineers building bespoke, high-performance software that directly supports our Aerodynamics, Vehicle Dynamics, and Vehicle Performance functions. At Williams, software and data are central to our mission of advancing up the grid, and this role puts you at the heart of both. The Role You'll lead a team of 3–5 engineers, taking ownership of technical direction, architecture, and delivery across a diverse and sophisticated software estate. From real-time data systems and state-of-the-art simulations to bespoke analysis tools and cloud-native modernisation, the problems you'll solve are genuinely complex and genuinely consequential. You'll remain hands-on, contributing directly to design and code while setting the technical standard for those around you. Our stack is deliberately broad: desktop applications in C++ and C#, web applications in React/TypeScript, Python-based analysis tools, and backend services in C++, Rust, F#, and C#. We use the right tool for the right job, and we're on an exciting journey adopting cloud-native technologies and modern data platforms.
