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 project manager will be responsible for coordinating and executing development efforts within budget and schedule. As part of the Government Programs team, the successful team member will participate in building the customer pipeline and developing project proposals to meet service needs in alignment with business objectives. Once the opportunity is won, the project manager will be responsible for building and leading the cross-functional team to execute on timeline. The ideal candidate will have experience with Department of Defense funded R&D, contract vehicles, requirements, and acquisition pathways.
