About the job
Our Vision
At Vertical Aerospace, we are at the forefront of the electric aviation revolution. Our flagship eVTOL aircraft, Valo, is designed to achieve 'zero emissions' while setting unprecedented safety benchmarks for aerial travel.
We are committed to transforming aerospace practices, moving away from traditional methods to redefine what is possible. As we transition from prototype to a rapidly scaling SME, these upcoming years are pivotal for us to achieve our ambitious objectives, including our goal for airliner-level safety certification by 2028 for our airline and operator partners.
As a Senior Aircraft Manufacturing Engineer, you will be integral to the Manufacturing Engineering Industrialisation team at Vertical Aerospace. Your role will focus on guiding the Valo aircraft through the transition from prototype to full-scale production, overseeing the development and implementation of manufacturing and assembly systems that support New Product Introduction (NPI) and scalable production.
You will play a key role in shaping our manufacturing strategy, influencing product design, and establishing best practices across our production facilities. This position offers significant visibility and ownership, allowing you to directly impact the construction of our aircraft as we grow.
