Located in Northern California, the team at Joby Aviation is driven by our goal of creating an affordable, all-electric air transportation system. Imagine a piloted air taxi that takes off vertically, then quietly carries you and your fellow passengers over the congested city streets below, enabling you to spend more time with the people and places that matter most. Since 2009, our team has worked steadily to make this dream a reality. We’ve designed and tested many generations of prototype aircraft capable of serving in a network of electric air taxis. We’re looking for talented, committed individuals to join our team as we push onwards toward certifying the Joby aircraft with the Federal Aviation Administration, scaling our manufacturing, and preparing to launch commercial service in 2025.
Joby Aviation is seeking a motivated individual to join our airframe and actuators team. This individual will be responsible for supporting the design, build, test, and certification of flight critical electro-mechanical actuators. The primary focus of this position will be the support of design engineering. Drafting of technical drawings for complex machined components and assemblies will be required. The applicant should have strong drafting experience, including a solid understanding of GD&T and its application. This role will also require assisting design engineers in the management of actuator bill of materials and ordering proprietary and off the shelf parts for the prototype builds. Close interaction with and support of the testing, system safety and certification teams will be required. These activities will include drafting Qualification Plans, Qualification Test Procedures, Qualification Test Reports, Acceptance Test Procedures, Problem Reporting, and Root Cause and Corrective Action reports.
Hands-on experience and a “get it done" attitude are key important for this position. This position is rewarding for engineers that value seeing their ideas rapidly grow from concept to creation due to Joby Aviation’s fast development pace.
