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 Regulatory Affairs Lead supports the company’s compliance, certification, and policy strategy by monitoring aviation regulations, evaluating their impact on business operations, and engaging with regulatory authorities. This position bridges technical, policy, and governmental domains, coordinating company positions. The role supports strategic advocacy and policy development for the company’s programs, ensuring alignment with FAA, EASA, and other international authorities. It provides critical guidance and liaison support to engineering, certification, and compliance functions.
