Company Overview:
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.

Joby is seeking a visionary Aircraft Maintenance Training Manager to architect and lead our maintenance training ecosystem.

In close collaboration with the Maintenance Lead, you will define the training standards for our future fleet of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft.
