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.

Our carpenters assist with a wide range of woodworking, remodeling, and carpentry projects. As a Building Trades Member, you will work with a small team manufacturing modular buildings that support Beta flight, manufacturing, and R&D operations. Additionally, carpentry, cabinetry, and fabrication skills are used to support general operations across all departments and buildings at Beta. The bulk of the work is performed at our Avenue D facility in South Burlington, but we also travel to work at our facilities both within and outside Vermont. The team also deploys Beta trade booths at two to three venues in the US and in Europe per year.

Responsibilities will include assisting with basic carpentry tasks such as framing in wood or steel and installing doors, windows, paneling, subfloors, flooring, and trim. While familiarity with these processes is desirable, on-the-job training will be provided by Beta.

The ideal candidate would be an open-minded and motivated learner, continually striving to build their experience by adding new skills gained through daily effort, curiosity, and interactions with team members. They would also be goal-oriented, detail-focused, and a team-player who can shift priorities quickly. Work at Beta is often changeable and challenging, but we always try to have fun.

This role includes both Restricted Stock Units and Performance Stock Units for all full-time team members, so everyone shares in our success.

We also take care of the everyday details with daily lunch provided, and yes—flight lessons are part of the experience, along with a range of additional perks that make work here genuinely rewarding.
