Evolito’s Mission
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.
About Evolito
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.
Role Overview
As part of our current high-growth phase, we are looking for a Power Electronics Test Engineer to join the team to validate and verify power electronics design of high voltage three phase inverters for electric propulsion systems.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop test systems for, and perform, dynamic switching, loss, and thermal characterisations of SiC MOSFETs and three phase inverters
- Conduct component and equipment level tests for filter components including DC link capacitors and CM inductors
- Support test and integration of three phase inverters with motors
- Support and develop automated calibration of sensors utilised in Evolito propulsion systems
- Support with commissioning of test equipment including systems under test
- Support test planning and execution of power electronics systems in accordance with overall program
- Produce test cases, methods and procedures in accordance with equipment requirement
- Deliver test reports and documentation to support certification activities and regulatory approvals
- Lead root-cause investigations of failures and define corrective actions, coordinating cross-functional teams and applying structured problem-solving methodologies.
- Contribute to the advancement of departmental technologies, capabilities, facilities, and processes
- Provide technical leadership, guidance, and mentorship to junior engineers within the team.
