Front End Developer, Telemetry – Joby Aviation

Located in Northern California, the Joby Aviation team has been steadily working toward our goal of providing safe, affordable, fully electric air transportation that is accessible to everyone. Imagine an air taxi that takes off vertically, then quietly and quickly carries you over the congestion below, giving you back that time you’d otherwise spend sitting in traffic. Technology has advanced to the point where designing and operating an all-electric aircraft is completely viable. Our team has been discreetly designing and flight testing this vehicle and is looking for talented individuals to see it through certification and high-rate production.

We are a rapidly growing team building mission critical software products supporting Joby Aviation’s vision to save 1 billion people an hour every day through electric powered flight. As a front-end developer, you will work closely with product management to design and deliver on various applications critical to the delivery of our revolutionary aircraft. These applications support a diverse range of
deployments such as Real-time In-service Telemetry, Flight Testing, Full Flight Training Simulator, Maintenance & Diagnostics, and Manufacturing Test.
