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.
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 andhas ambitious growth plans over the next twelve to eighteen months.
As part of our current high-growth phase, we are looking for a Motor Control Engineer t o develop of state-of-the-art algorithms and complex software logic for the Evolito motor controller products focusing on certification under the guidelines of RTCA DO-178C, Design Assurance Level (DAL) A.
Key responsibilities will include:
* Work with the motor controls team to research and develop cutting-edge algorithms for electric motors, focusing on performance, robustness, and efficiency
* Develop models of electrical (e-motors, power electronics, batteries, etc) and mechanical (gearboxes, propellers, clutches, etc) components in model-based simulation environment (Matlab, Simulink, Simscape)
* Test, tune and optimise controllers for different motor, inverter and drivetrain topologies to achieve desired performance metrics, including torque response, accuracy, bandwidth, efficiency, NVH, etc
* Support functional assessment (debugging) of motor controller software using MiL and HiL environment
* Support technical discussions with customers
* Create and maintain detailed requirements, design documentation, and source code for safety-critical software systems, adhering to Design Assurance Level (DAL) A of RTCA DO-178C
* Conduct rigorous peer reviews of models, algorithms, and other software artifacts to ensure compliance with safety and performance standards
* Produce controls performance reports and presentations
* Work closely with internal teams and external stakeholders to synchronize cross-functional development efforts and ensure project alignment
* Follow and improve software development processes, emphasizing best practices and efficiency in compliance with DAL A requirements
