Full-Time No working from home possible
Evolito Limited
Evolito’s mission is to accelerate the adoption of electric propulsion in aerospace applications in support of a net‑zero world. 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. * Determine fatigue allowable stress levels for sizing. * Determine 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 and 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. Qualifications and Experience * Proven experience in 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.). * Strong foundation in load/stress analysis with abilities to formulate free‑body diagrams and identify load paths of structures. * Practical knowledge of electric machines or rotating assemblies. * Strong experience with FEA methods and programs, e.g., ANSYS (ideally). * Self‑sufficient and able to work with minimal managerial input. * Good understanding of aerospace materials and associated mechanical properties and processing. * Confidence dealing with customers and suppliers, able to interpret requirements and understand issues. * Flexible approach to work with the desire to thrive in a dynamic, fast‑moving environment. * Strong communication skills (written and verbal), good collaboration skills, and the ability to work effectively across teams. * Self‑motivated with determination to succeed. Desirable * Experience in aerospace certification programmes. * Experience with polymers‑creep evaluation. #J-18808-Ljbffr
