We support initial builds, rebuilds, development specification changes in build or mid sequences on dyno. Alongside the builds, the team help to define and develop build processes and workshop improvements with a common goal of Mercedes success for 2026 and beyond in F1.</p> </div></div><div class="column"><div class=""><p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Please could you give us a brief overview of your career path?</strong><br /> My career in motorsport started at the age of 14 working in the lower formula’s during weekends, working my way up the formula’s (Formula ford / Formula Vauxhall / Formula 3). After school and college, I joined Zytek Motorsport as an Apprentice Engine & Trackside Technician working in F3000. I was thrilled to then get the opportunity to fulfil my childhood dream of working in F1 at Mercedes-Illmor. I started here in February 2005 working in F1 Engine Strip / Final Inspection on the last of the V10 engines, shortly after I moved onto the Assembly Team starting in Cylinder Head Build on the F1 V8 project. At the end of 2006 I progressed into Final Engine Build where I stayed until 2009. After a short break from HPP pursuing my own business venture, I returned in 2011. I joined the V6 Turbo Build Team helping to build the new MGUH assemblies ready for the 2014 season before a return to Final Engine Build and Trackside Rotation. I supported at the racetrack as a Rotating Engine Technician from 2015 – 2019 mainly for Mercedes Grand Prix however I also supported a few events with Manor F1 and Force India during tests and races. 2020 I helped assemble the CPAP units during the Covid pandemic, before we swiftly returned to F1 duties. I started my current role in July 2021 as Performance Development – Build Team Leader. Alongside this role I completed the Future Team Leader apprenticeship<br /> course recently completing with distinction.</p> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>What has been the highlight of your career so far?</strong><br /> There have been many highlights so far for me at HPP, being involved in several dominant driver and constructor championships. Singling out one is very difficult however working on Lewis Hamilton’s car during the 2015 & 2016 seasons were certainly up there for me! Although the 2019 Valentino Rossi and Lewis Hamilton Monster energy event was very special too! I am hopeful there are many more highlights to come as we all push towards success in the future.</p> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Whats the most challenging aspect of your role?</strong><br /> The most challenging aspect of my role is the ability to switch off, the day is never over at HPP and the constant drive for success can be challenging at times. On the flip side the rewards we see in the form of HPP successes can make this an easier challenge to deal with.</p> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>What tips would you give someone who wants to pursue a career in your team?</strong><br /> If I could give tips to someone who is looking to join the Development Team, I would suggest a positive attitude towards all tasks no matter how small, learn whatever you can from all team members, and be open minded towards change. Always remember to treat people how you would like to be treated.</p> </div></div></div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><br><br></h2> <div class="jx-columns constrain style--solid"><div class="column"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://www.mercedes-amg-hpp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Operations-assembly-build-2.jpg" alt=""></figure><p class="h1">ASSEMBLY SYSTEMS</p><div class=""><p>Despite the high-change and flexibility needed within the operations environment, there is also a crucial need for high precision and repeatability in tasks.
