Commercial Operations Project Manager

Joby Aviation Pilot And Project Manager

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'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 launching our initial commercial service.

Joby Aviation is seeking a passionate pilot and project manager to join our commercial operations team with a focus on flying for our certificated 14 CFR Part 135 entity as well as driving the development, planning, and execution of air taxi operations in domestic and international markets.

You must be a strategic thinker, able to represent Joby's vision to key in-market commercial, political, and regulatory stakeholders. You must also be tactical in execution, capable of completing a range of tasks, from drafting operational manuals to coordinating with cross-functional stakeholders to drive the execution of go-to-market plans.

Your prior aviation operations experience will serve as the bedrock from which you will build knowledge of eVTOL operations to become a sought-after subject matter expert. You will offer a credible and informed perspective on - and will drive execution of - the workstreams required to successfully launch a commercial eVTOL air taxi service. Eventually, you may qualify to fly our eVTOL aircraft.

This in-person role is located at Joby's offices in Marina, California.
