About the company:

BETA Technologies is creating an electric transportation ecosystem that’s safe, reliable and sustainable. A relentlessly focused team is building an extensive charging infrastructure and ALIA, the world’s most technologically advanced electric vertical aircraft (EVA).

BETA’s platform and products are strikingly simple. Prioritization of safety and a pragmatic approach to certification drive elegant redundancy, appropriate diversity of implementation and simplicity of control. ALIA’s fixed-pitch propellers and centrally located batteries make it an inherently stable aircraft that is safe to fly and easy to maneuver.

At BETA Technologies, we apply our intellectual curiosity, passion for aviation, and commitment to sustainability toward a shared mission of revolutionizing electric aviation. Regardless of the position one holds, each team member brings their talent and desire to positively impact the environment and lives of others in a refreshing, vibrant, and inclusive culture.

As a company pioneering advanced air mobility and defining an entirely new category in aviation, we believe that the customer experience must be equally transformative— seamless, digitally-integrated, and lifecycle-driven from purchase to post-delivery support and sustainment. By joining this team, you will help shape this first-of-its-kind customer experience the BETA way, ultimately transforming and elevating the legacy aerospace customer experience. Spanning across our Commercial Aircraft, Ground Support Equipment (GSE), Defense, and Components customers, you will help foster relationships and provide a one-of-a-kind customer experience centered around reliability, sustainability, and elegance.

As an Account Manager for BETA’s OEM Component Customers, you will develop, maintain & drive the customer’s contract execution and scope, administering both strategic and tactical plans centered around the delivery of the products and services to the customer followed by their successful integration into their products and operations. You are responsible for converting the agreed-upon terms of the customer(s) contract(s) into action for the entire lifetime of that contract, ensuring BETA meets its obligations in the contract(s). Success is achieved through the development, execution, and coordinated delivery of a detailed project plan, encompassing contract term decomposition, component production and delivery efforts, and sustainment and other MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) activities. Our ideal candidate will have a passion for aviation, be an exceptional communicator, have a keen attention to detail, have a passion for customer relations, and a track record of providing exceptional customer service.

Build electric airplanes with us!
