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. Overview The Human Factors Specialist will be a contributing member of Joby's growing Human Factors team. This position will support concept development and validation, systems integration, and certification activities related to the human factors aspects of our aircraft design. Work will span highly augmented flight controls, advanced displays and system controls, and pilot integration with increasingly automated systems for eVTOL and urban air mobility operations. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career human factors professional to develop deep expertise in aircraft development certification within a fast-moving, mission-driven environment. The most important traits at Joby are a positive attitude toward the project, a strong work ethic, and the ability to self-manage and learn new skills. Intellectual curiosity and forward thinking are highly valued.
