Company OverviewImagine 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. At Joby, we've been working to make that dream a reality since 2009 and we're now in the final stages of certifying our aircraft with the FAA. With plans to launch our aircraft in the US and Dubai, we're now scaling manufacturing and preparing for the launch of our commercial service.
OverviewWe're looking for talented, committed individuals to join our team as we push onward toward certifying the Joby aircraft, scaling our manufacturing, and launching our initial commercial service. Join a Global Team Building the Future of Aerospace Manufacturing. We're looking for a Python-leaning software engineer to help drive the next generation of systems that support our eVTOL production. You'll be part of a vertically integrated, international team spread across four continents, working on complex, high-impact projects that span financial, engineering systems, and the tools that help our people build something that's never been built before. Working with a level of ambiguity and cross-collaboration is core to everything we do. Whether you're developing a backend service that streamlines financial transactions, or creating APIs that help engineers interact with advanced technical equipment, your work will improve efficiency and clarity across the business.
