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
2029 ahead of entering service with our airline and operator customers.
We're looking for an Advanced Structural Test Engineer to join our growing Test & Validation team. This is a hands-on engineering
role where you'll take ownership of structural test campaigns from initial planning through to execution, analysis and reporting.
Working from our Kemble facilities, you'll play a key role in delivering the physical evidence required to support aircraft
development and certification. You'll work across a broad range of structural testing activities, from component-level
investigations through to large-scale certification programmes, collaborating closely with Design, Stress, Airframe and
Certification teams.
What You'll Do
* Lead the planning and execution of structural test campaigns across development and certification programmes
* Own the setup, operation and troubleshooting of data acquisition and control systems, including MTS and LabVIEW platforms
* Develop instrumentation strategies including strain gauge installation, rosettes, wiring, bonding and signal conditioning
* Monitor test execution, validate real-time data and ensure safe and effective test delivery
* Work closely with design and structural engineering teams to define test requirements and develop test rigs
* Analyse test results and produce clear, traceable technical reports to support engineering and certification activities
* Support the development and continuous improvement of testing processes, methodologies and standards
* Mentor junior engineers and technicians, providing guidance on instrumentation, rig setup and test execution
* Drive high standards of data quality, repeatability and technical excellence across all testing activities
What You'll Bring
Essential
* Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering or a related discipline
* Experience within structural test engineering, ideally gained within aerospace or another highly regulated engineering
environment
* Strong knowledge of data acquisition and control systems, including MTS FlexTest and/or LabVIEW
* Hands-on experience with strain gauge installation, wiring, bonding and troubleshooting
* Strong understanding of load measurement systems, calibration techniques and signal behaviour
* Experience planning and executing both development and certification test programmes
* Ability to manage multiple priorities and work effectively in a fast-paced engineering environment
Desirable
* Experience supporting aerospace certification programmes under EASA and/or FAA regulations
* Knowledge of rosette strain gauges, Wheatstone bridge circuits and signal noise reduction techniques
* Understanding of uncertainty quantification and calibration traceability
* Mechanical rig assembly and integration experience
* Experience using MATLAB, Python, nCode or similar data analysis tools
* Familiarity with CATIA V5, 3DEXPERIENCE or equivalent CAD software
