<h2>Joby Overview</h2><p>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 onward toward certifying the Joby aircraft, scaling our manufacturing, and launching our initial commercial service.</p><h2>Overview</h2><p>We are seeking a motivated individual to join our Testing Team as a Test Technician. This role will be responsible for the assembly, operation, troubleshooting and decommissioning of teststands and test equipment. The Test Technician will be responsible for the mechanical/structural setup of test stands, the installation of instrumentation gauging and wiring on test stands, and operation of basic data acquisition equipment. The Test Technician will have the responsibility to work with engineers to resolve issues with test and data acquisition equipment. This flex shift role will need to be available to support a second shift for test setup and execution from 2 PM to 10 PM when applicable. It is expected that second shift work will be required ~60% of the time through the end of 2025 and will become less frequent in 2026. <strong>This position is eligible for a second-shift pay premium.</strong>The work is performed in a dynamic and rapidly evolving environment. The Test Technician works in the testing facility and is often hands on with aerospace flight hardware; attention to detail and a focus on safety are required at all times. The test technician is responsible to ensure work areas are clean and safe, including following 5S best practices for test work areas, ensuring test equipment is maintained in good working order and tracked in inventory. The test technician supports development of company best practices and continuous improvementmeasures for test processes and facilities.This role interacts with engineers and technicians from multiple cross functional teams.
