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 Manufacturing Engineering team is seeking a Manufacturing Process Engineer to focus on line and equipment ideology, design, build and introduction into production. A strong candidate will have experience in the creation and validation of capable processes from ideation through handoff to production for low and high-volume manufacturing in and out of the aerospace sector. Your work will be to coordinate the design and build of a capable manufacturing line for the Battery manufacturing of BETA’s Alia aircraft. You will work with internal design and manufacturing teams as well as our Tier 1 suppliers and other vendors to assist in design for manufacturing.
