Our Mission At Vertical Aerospace, we are pioneering the way for electric aviation. The Valo, our eVTOL (electric, vertical, take-off and landing), ''zero emissions'' aircraft will set a new safety standard for how we will navigate the sky. We won''t realise our mission following the same legacy processes and traditions our predecessors followed, instead, we want to ''redefine'' aerospace best practices. We are growing quickly from a prototype business to a scaling SME, and the next few years will be critical to our success and delivering on our ambitious goals. Valo is targeting airliner-level safety certification in 2028 ahead of entering service with our airline and operator customers. What to Expect As an Advanced Mechanical Design Engineer within our Energy Storage team, you will play a key role in the design and development of battery modules and thermal management systems for our fully electric aircraft. You''ll work at the intersection of mechanical design, thermal performance, manufacturing and aircraft integration, supporting both prototype builds and longer-term certification-ready designs. A typical day might include developing detailed CAD designs in CATIA, supporting manufacturing engineering during prototype builds, collaborating with stress and quality teams, or working through complex integration challenges at module and aircraft level. This role suits an engineer who enjoys ownership, thrives in fast-paced environments, and wants to contribute directly to ..... full job details .....
