Senior Stress Engineer - Structure Dynamics

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 ExpectAs a Senior Stress Engineer - Structural Dynamics, you''ll play a key role in ensuring the safe and efficient integration of our Electric Propulsion Unit (EPU) into the Valo airframe. Sitting within the Powertrain Squad, you''ll work across teams and suppliers to develop structural concepts, assess dynamic behaviour, and guarantee compliance with stringent aerospace standards. Your work will span from early concept development through to certification - balancing mass efficiency, structural integrity, and dynamic performance, while ensuring seamless integration into the aircraft architecture. What You''ll Do: Own the structural integration of the Electric Propulsion Unit (EPU) into the Valo airframe, developing and selecting concepts for EPU side mechanical interfaces and ..... full job details .....
