About the company:

Revolutionising urban air mobility and electrifying air travel

Join the Powertrain Team based in Bristol as a Battery Assembly Quality Engineer and help us to achieve our mission of pioneering electric aviation.

What success will look like for you as a Battery Assembly Quality Engineer?

As a Battery Assembly Quality Engineer, you will be responsible for playing a fundamental part in guaranteeing the rigorous standards we set are met and surpassed within our battery manufacturing facility. It is imperative that this position is occupied by an individual who possesses an unwavering passion for manufacturing and an unquenchable thirst for tackling the most complex of problems.

This role requires a natural influencer and collaborator. Among others, you will collaborate with the Energy Storage team on the creation of documented information, and controlling processes to support working activities (e.g. manufacturing processes, SOP’s, forms). You will frequently utlise quality tools (APQP, FMEA (D/P), control plans, FAIRs, process flows, cost of quality) and develop control plans and supporting inspection procedures, in accordance with APQP requirement(s). You will report directly to the Head of Quality and be a key member of the Battery team, supporting the continued development of our in-house expertise, specialist knowledge, and capabilities.

What would we like you to bring.

We want you to be successful in your role, to achieve this, we are looking for:

  • At least 3 years of experience in quality assurance/control and around 5 years working within a defined quality management system.
  • Exceptional skills/knowledge of manufacturing processes, although we're very open as to what manufacturing background you are coming from. 
  • Strong working knowledge of the assembly of electrical systems (preferably experience with hazardous voltage) would be highly advantageous
  • Ideally, you will be a lead auditor trained in an ISO standard (9100/16949/9001)
 


What can you expect from us?

We're on a mission. Where others see limits, we see opportunity, and we work at pace. Working at Vertical isn't your average role but for those seeking a challenge, a flexible, supportive organisation and an incredible team; working here is an opportunity to do the best work of your career.

Our approach promotes ingenuity and courage, while our environment builds success through diligence in safety and being open in the way we work. The only way we're going to assure the next chapter of aviation history is by working as a team, relentlessly, towards our goal.  


Our benefits

Our people matter - we're not going anywhere without them. Which is why our company benefits go beyond the essentials.

  • 26 days holiday, plus bank holiday
  • 5 extra days per year to buy (or sell)
  • 5 extra days holiday when you get married or enter a civil partnership
  • Additional 4% of your salary to spend on extra benefits
  • Award-winning digital health and wellbeing service (Help@Hand)
  • Company Share Scheme - open to every Vertical employee
  • Company Pension Scheme - 5% and we match it
  • Breakfast on us, every day

We may just be the hardest job you've ever had, but we're confident it will be the most rewarding. Join the team today and help us shape the future of Advanced Air Mobility.
