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.
This position will initially build the foundation for three distinct areas within the finance function at Beta. The ideal candidate will be able to manage and prioritize multiple projects at one time while utilizing consultants to support the functions where necessary.

The position will require a team player and an individual with excellent communication skills. The candidate must be comfortable presenting progress to management, and have a core knowledge of GAAP accounting for complex transactions. Comfort with both SEC and GAAP reporting requirements would also be beneficial.
