Evolito’s mission is to accelerate the adoption of electric propulsion in aerospace applications in support of a net-zero world. We will help to revolutionise personal mobility and transform our towns and cities with clean, noise-free air transportation. Evolito develops and manufactures class-leading, lightweight, high-power, and high-torque-density electric propulsion systems for a range of aerospace markets, including EVTOL, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and General Aviation. As well as ultra-high performance, low-weight electric motors and controllers, Evolito specialises in high integrity, bespoke battery systems for the aerospace and defence markets. The team is scaling rapidly and has ambitious growth plans over the next twelve to eighteen months. As part of our current high-growth phase, we are looking for a Senior Hardware Engineer to design, implement and test motor control units to meet the system and equipment requirements and to a certifiable standard for aerospace applications. Key responsibilities will include: Lead the inverter and converter hardware development Contribute to defining and reviewing specifications Lead and/or contribute to design reviews Support the safety case (ARP4754A/DO254) of the system Design, develop, debug and validate electronics hardware for use in inverter and converter products for aerospace applications Conduct simulation and evaluation of electrical and thermal circuit designs Perform schematic capture, PCB layout design and manufacturing support Evaluate component lifetime, limits and derating Support EMC testing and the development of technical files Generate internal and external documentation including designs, analysis, simulation and reviews Contribute to developing the electronics / hardware departments technologies, capabilities, facilities, and processes Technically lead, guide and mentor engineers within the Hardware Team and across the business.
