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.

BETA seeks a motivated,  process-oriented Material Handler to join our growing team. This position will focus on the use of a forklift, cart, and other material handling equipment to move materials between receiving/shipping, bulk storage, and production areas at our eVTOL aircraft manufacturing facility.  Material Handlers will execute signals from the Warehouse Management System (WMS) to efficiently and accurately move materials between locations.  In conjunction with material movement, Material Handlers will follow WMS and Team tasking to execute other activities in the warehouse and manufacturing spaces including cycle counting, kitting, space consolidation, and labeling. Material Handlers will work closely with Shipping/Receiving and Inventory team members to execute their duties.  An ideal candidate for this role is goal-oriented, detail-focused, qualified to operate a forklift, with experience in inventory and logistics.
