Why Choose Us

The Desire Electric Difference

Unlike large firms where junior engineers execute senior promises, Desire Electric delivers principal-level expertise directly on your programme. We bring the depth of a Tier 1 OEM career — across Jaguar Land Rover, Airbus, Vertical Aerospace, Lilium, and Zoox — into a flexible, client-focused engagement model. We work globally, travelling on-site wherever needed, across the UK, Europe, and North America.

01

Senior-Only Delivery

Every engagement is led and delivered by principal-level engineers with Tier 1 OEM and aerospace programme experience — not subcontracted to junior resource.

02

Maximum Flexibility

We adapt to your programme structure — fixed-scope delivery, embedded consultancy, or strategic advisory — on-site or remote, across any time zone.

03

Cross-Sector Intelligence

Our experience spanning automotive, aerospace, and stationary storage allows us to transfer best practices between sectors — often the most valuable innovation source.

04

Global Reach

Active clients in the UK, USA, and Europe. We travel on-site to your location — wherever your programme is based.

The Engineer Behind the Consultancy

Moyin Akolade — Founder, Desire Electric
Moyin Akolade
Founder & Principal Engineer

With over 15 years of hands-on engineering experience spanning Airbus, Jaguar Land Rover, Vertical Aerospace, Lilium, and Zoox, I founded Desire Electric to bring principal-level engineering expertise directly to ambitious programmes — without the overhead of a large consultancy.

My career has taken me from aerospace materials testing at Airbus and medical device design management, through to leading electrification battery design teams at JLR, designing VTOL battery modules compliant with EASA standards at Vertical Aerospace, managing battery cell industrialisation at the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre, and most recently managing the full AV requirements architecture at Zoox (Amazon) in California.

I bring this depth — and the cross-sector pattern recognition it enables — to every client engagement.
