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.

Working closely with design and tooling teams, you will provide critical manufacturability feedback during design reviews and lead efforts in automation integration and rapid prototyping. As a mentor and collaborator, you will help elevate the capabilities of our manufacturing team and support the growth of Beta Technologies.

Join Beta Technologies as an Advanced Manufacturing and Process Engineer and play a pivotal role in enhancing our manufacturing capabilities while bringing breakthrough aerospace technologies to life.
