Albany, Australia Xtrac Ltd Full time

Xtrac are looking for driven and enthusiastic students for our undergraduate industrial placement opportunities for 2026 to 2027.

As part of our award-winning scheme, students will work in Engineering as a Trainee Design Engineer, a Trainee Design Analyst, Trainee Mechatronics Engineer or a Trainee R&D Engineer.

The industrial placements roles will start in August 2026. We offer a busy and unique place of work, with both design and production under one roof, and exposure to different disciplines across the Mechanical Engineering sector.

The level of responsibility and type of project you would work on, will depend on your ability to rise to the challenges set, but the expectation is that you will become an integrated, contributing member of the engineering team. Xtrac placement students only work on “real” projects which ultimately end up on race cars and specialist vehicles

These opportunities will be in our Design Office or Advanced Engineering Group and have had huge success in previous years, providing further opportunities and career paths for those with the drive to succeed.

What we are looking for

We are looking for committed candidates that are either a student of aeronautical, automotive, mechanical engineering, or are undertaking a similar Bachelors or Master’s Degree in their second (of three) or third (of four) year of study.

Good academic results are a pre-requisite, as is an interest in automotive engineering. Experience in a motorsport environment is desirable but not essential. The successful candidates must be able to work unsupervised, be self-motivated and be willing to work additional hours where necessary.

Company benefits include

- Pension Contribution

- Life Assurance

- Private Health Care

- Eye Care Assistance

- Cycle to Work Scheme

- Company Events

- On-site Parking

- Reward & Recognition Incentives

- Flexible Working for Some Roles

- Salary Sacrifice Electric Car Scheme

- Free Safety Workwear

At Xtrac we are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workforce and an environment where people can come to work to be themselves. We collect information about job applicants to ensure that we are attracting a diverse candidate pool, and we use that information to assess if applications and success rates reflect the targets we have set ourselves. This information is held anonymously, confidentially and separately to the remainder of your application and is in no way used to make any recruitment decisions.
