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.
Position: Senior Fatigue & Damage Tolerance Analysis Engineer
As part of our current high-growth phase, we are seeking a Senior Fatigue & Damage Tolerance Analysis Engineer to join the team to ensure the development and deployment of fatigue and damage tolerance (F&DT) analysis methods for metallic and composite structures, both rotating and static components, for electric propulsion architecture including the motor.
Key Responsibilities
- Carry out detailed fatigue and crack growth analysis using both first-principles and industry-recognised analysis/calculation methods
- Analyse the life of rotating metallic (aluminium, steel, and titanium) components consistent with Group A critical parts
- Assess results against customer specifications and draw sound conclusions, including the generation of LCF, damage tolerance, and residual fatigue
- Determination of fatigue allowable stress levels for sizing
- Determination of inspection intervals for structural parts consistent with CS25 requirements
- Collaborate closely with Design, Test, and Airworthiness teams to integrate F&DT solutions into the certification programmes
- Author technical documentation to support regulatory submissions
- Develop ideas and design solutions to practical challenges arising from new product design
- Drive and manage test work that will validate the analysis
- Support DFMEAs, other quality techniques, and complete actions required to mitigate risks
- Write specifications and reports as required through the product lifecycle, utilising a structured approach to problem-solving techniques.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Skills and Experience Required
- Proven experience in the evaluation of static and rotating components, specifically CS25 level lifing compliance with respect to LCF, damage tolerance, and residual fatigue
- Proven experience of critical parts lifing for LCF, damage tolerance, and residual fatigue (deterministic and probabilistic)
- Calculation of equivalent (Seq) stresses (fatigue and crack propagation), understanding of mission profiles, rainflow counting, Miner's rule, and F&DT databases
- Analysis of metallic and composite structures (plain strength checks, buckling, bolted joint analysis)
- Knowledge of static and fatigue design values (Ftu, Fty, Fcy, AFI parameters, S-N curve parameters, fracture toughness, etc)
- A strong foundation in the area of load/stress analysis with abilities to formulate "free body diagrams" and identify load path of structures
- Practical knowledge of electric machines or rotating assemblies
- Strong experience with FEA methods and programs e.g. ANSYS
- Good understanding of aerospace materials and associated mechanical properties and processing
- Self-sufficient and able to work with minimal managerial input
- Confident with customers and suppliers, able to interpret requirements and understand issues
- A flexible approach to work with the desire to thrive in a dynamic, fast-moving environment
- Strong communication skills (both written and verbal), good collaboration skills, and the ability to work effectively across teams
- Self-motivated with the determination to succeed.
