Joby Aviation EHS Specialist

At Joby Aviation, we are driven by our goal of creating an affordable, all-electric, global air transportation system. Imagine a piloted air taxi that takes off vertically, and 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.

We're looking for talented, committed individuals to join our team as we push onward toward certifying our aircraft and scaling our global operations.
