We build and deploy autonomy, perception, planning, and radar systems across conventional, electric, and hydrogen-electric aircraft in both CTOL and VTOL configurations. Overview Joby Aviation is looking for a passionate Senior Manufacturing Engineer to help us build our fleet of J208 aircraft (a Cessna Caravan integrated with Superpilot autonomy technology). The Senior Manufacturing Engineer owns how our aircraft actually get built — translating engineering designs into buildable, repeatable processes and driving the improvements that make the build of each faster, cleaner, and more consistent to produce than the last. This role sits at the interface between the engineering team designing the Superpilot hardware suite and the technicians who build and keep our aircraft flying. The candidate will be responsible for making sure that what is designed can be built, and that what is built matches what was designed. This position requires a solid understanding of aircraft structures and systems, manufacturing and assembly processes, and FAA-required quality and certification processes. It also requires a hands-on disposition and a willingness to spend time on the floor with the people executing the build, since the best process improvements come from being present to watch challenges be resolved in real time. Responsibilities Own the manufacturing and assembly plan for aircraft installations, from build sequence and tooling concept through to a fully documented, repeatable process Author work instructions and manufacturing bills of material, and support technicians directly on the floor during fabrication, assembly, and integration Design and procure tooling, fixtures, and shop aids that improve build quality, ergonomics, and cycle time Drive producibility into the design by partnering with design engineers on design for manufacturability, assembly, and maintenance Disposition nonconformances, lead root cause and corrective action investigations, and feed lessons learned from each build back into the design and the process documentation Interface with internal and external partners to source parts, qualify suppliers, and resolve supplier quality and first article issues Collaborate with quality, maintenance, flight test, and program stakeholders to plan builds and resolve blockers Required B.S. in mechanical, manufacturing, aerospace engineering, or another relevant discipline 5+ years of working experience in relevant industry, with examples of both hands-on prototype builds and rate production Experience developing manufacturing processes and work instructions for complex mechanical or aerostructure assemblies Strong working knowledge of engineering drawings and GD&T per

ASME Y14.5

Proficiency with CAD tools for tooling design, fixture design, and build sequence development Experience with fabrication and assembly of metallic and composite structures, including bonding, fastening, and surface treatment processes Familiarity with aerospace quality systems and regulatory requirements such as
