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 Senior Mechanical Engineering Analyst is responsible for supporting the development of innovative electric aircraft components with their world-class FEA skillset. As a Sr. Mechanical Engineering Analyst at Beta Technologies, you will work in a small team environment to rapidly develop new technologies in the evolving world of eVTOL aircraft design. As an open-minded and outside-the-box thinker, you will perpetually strive to supplement your past industry experience with new knowledge gained every day through research and experimentation as you support the development of next-generation, high-energy-density energy storage systems. You will utilize your knowledge of structural analysis software to ensure designs are meeting design requirements, meeting the highest safety standards, and exceeding all relevant regulatory requirements. You will have a part in all aspects of the development of the energy storage system and guide the team in both product and test fixture development. You will be challenged every day and probably have a lot of fun.
