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.

The Manufacturing Technician is responsible for production operations on innovative electric aircraft components through hands on assembly.  As a Manufacturing Technician at Beta Technologies, you will work in a small team environment as we develop a low volume production area to a fully established manufacturing department.  As an open-minded and outside-the-box thinking you will perpetually strive to supplement your past experience with new knowledge gained every day through research and experimentation.  You will perform daily hands-on production assembly tasks while also devoting time to refining manufacturing processes, design jigs and fixtures, introduce new tools and equipment ideas to the manufacturing team and continuously improve quality and through put to align with high level business goals.  You will work closely with your peers to thread design changes from ongoing product development efforts seamlessly into existing build processes. You will be challenged every day and probably have a lot of fun.
