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.
We are looking for highly motivated university students with a clear passion for engineering and technology, keen to gain skills and knowledge in a fast-paced environment. We are looking for students to join the team for a 12-month industrial placement to gain real-world, hands-on experience within Evolito.
You will work as part of a dedicated team on long and short term self-contained projects, will be mentored throughout your work, and will have the freedom to innovate and develop solutions to real challenges. It is likely that successful candidates will come from an engineering background and be able to demonstrate a hands-on, practical ability.
During your
Design and Development Industrial Placement Programme, you will support the Mechanical Design Team in producing design solutions that arise from new product design and contribute to the delivery of customer programmes.
Key focus areas:
- Supporting the design and development of parts and assemblies of our motor and controller products
- Assisting on the developing of design solutions through full product lifecycle from requirements, through concept schemes, preliminary design, detail design, support procurement, manufacture/production, test and verification and development activities
- Producing 3D CAD models, 2D drawings, supporting calculations and analysis, material and production methods selection
- Supporting the development of manufacturing processes and novel designs for new technology applications and materials
- Working with the team to support DFMEAs and input other robust engineering management work where required to support robust, safe, high-performance solutions
- Supporting new business opportunities with information, guidance and feasibility of packaging and applications of our motors and controllers.
Skills and experience required:
- Currently enrolled in a degree or equivalent in mechanical, electro-mechanical or equivalent engineering sciences
- Confident in the use of engineering basic principles for initial conceptual design
- A desire to begin understanding of design for manufacturing and series production processes
- Basic experience in the use of CAD software packages (CatiaV5/V6, NX or SolidWorks)
- Initial ability to undertake and interpret mechanical CAE studies and propose solutions/improvements to design issues
- Confident with cross-functional collaboration with internal stakeholders, suppliers and customers
- Creative problem-solving abilities with an analytical approach to implementation
- Strong communication skills
- A flexible approach to work.
